    Pretty simple, actually. Putin has to ‘destroy Nazism in Ukraine’ to save face though.

    Destroying Nazism in Ukraine is one of the justifications Putin has used.

    Does no one read the news anymore?

    Russian bots hate my post. Go figure.

        Is… where is this image from? I know there are nazis in Ukraine but this seems so comical that it looks like it could be AI or something lol.

            Sure I’m not saying it’s actually false here, I was simply saying it looks so over the top as to be silly, and was curious about where yogthos got the image.

            I don’t follow the western media lies on Ukraine, and understand that history there started before 2022 and 2014. I’m on lemmygrad mang. I was just asking the source on the image.

          Kiev has been murdering civilians in the Donbass region since the Banderite coup in 2014. Pointing out the reverance the modern Kiev regime has for Nazi collaborators like Stepan Bandera, and their far-right politics, is just highlighting an uncomfortable truth for westerners that rely on fascists. Despite your hatred of communists, we aren’t going anywhere.

          You used two propaganda buzz words there yourself. Idk why it’s so hard to belive that the western empire is evil and psychotic while also not liking Putin.

                  I always thought it was members of the British communist party who were against Stalin getting involved in Czechoslovakia.

                    Czechoslovakia was 1968, well after Stalin’s death. You’re referring to Khrushchev in Hungary in 1956, which is indeed the incident that led to the split in the CPGB, but when people use the term today they use it against those who generally support socialist states.

      Does a children’s cancer ward count as Nazism, as that is one of the countless civilian targets by the Russian invaders. Troll better comrade

        You completely missed the point of my post. I am saying this is how Putin is justifying the war to Russian citizens. It’s complete bs of course.

        I didn’t realize there are so many Russia supporters.
