TIME Correspondent, Simon Shuster, travels to Ukraine in the summer of 2019 to investigate white supremacists militias that are recruiting people to join their fight.
Russian nazis are a fringe and don’t control the country. Russia has never been ruled by a neo-nazi prime-minister nor are they integrating nazi battalions into their army. Russia also doesn’t have nazi brainwashing schools for kids. One of the greatest holidays in Russia is Victory Day which celebrates the triumph of the Soviet Union against Nazism.
In 2023 Russian government organized a photo exhibition dedicated to Ukraine, positive side was shown and their heroes were respected and loved while in Ukraine there was a Russian book burning campaign. Russian government never posts or demean Ukraine has a race or nationality (yes they say the country didn’t exist before 1918) but Ukrainian government officials regularly dehumanizes Russians like Nazis did in 1940. Get the difference.
You’re talking about an occupier and the occupied. No shit their relationship consists of the occupier and fucking world superpower sharing platitudes about how much respect and care they have for the occupied.
And as for the white supremacy problem being ignored? Well, yeah, of course. The media likes clean narratives. They don’t like nuance because they can’t make a hero/villain story out of nuance. So that kind of shit gets ignored for what fits cleanly into their chosen narrative. And then you get liberals actively fighting against the concept because it upsets their neat little worldview.
There isn’t always a conspiracy. Sometimes you just gotta think a little.
Made a comment replying to someone arguing in bad faith (they were claiming pics of Ukrainian far right marches were actually Wagner in disguise lmao) a while back, edited out parts directed at them. Hope you find these Interesting.
Acknowledging that reality does not turn the Kiev government into a nest of fascists, as Kremlin propaganda has claimed, nor does it absolve Russia of its assault on Ukraine’s sovereignty and illegal seizure of Crimea. Ignoring Ukraine’s far right, on the other hand, can have dire consequences for the very dream of a free and democratic country which so many Ukrainians have fought, suffered, and died for.
Next link is an article by The Guardian. It includes a collection of pictures, too.
Next article is by Reuters. The article opens with the following paragraphe:
As Ukraine’s struggle against Russia and its proxies continues, Kiev must also contend with a growing problem behind the front lines: far-right vigilantes who are willing to use intimidation and even violence to advance their agendas, and who often do so with the tacit approval of law enforcement agencies.
Anyone got some links to the Nazi docs?

Yeah, but not the Russian Nazis.

Get the difference between the two countries now?

This is…an insane point of view.
