Apparently libs think saying what's happening is "startling by anyone’s standards".
“There will always be a radical segment of Ukrainian society that will call any negotiation capitulation,” he said. “The far right in Ukraine is growing. The right wing is a danger to democracy.”
And then...
Another brigade commander, Maksym Zhorin, accused Marezhko of having no idea what he was talking about, saying in no uncertain terms that yes, in fact, negotiations on Russia’s conditions would always be seen as capitulation.
It's hard to find media coverage of it, but I'm pretty sure every Ukrainian city (including Kiev) are policed by neo-nazis. When the war started there was chaos, because the Ukrainian government decided to give an AK to anyone who asked. In the cities neo-nazi groups started keeping "law and order", now they have uniforms. AZOV started as a "special task police force" in 2014. Nazis policing is not a new concept for Ukraine.
The TCC is almost 100% all nazis. People wonder "who could do that to people, shove them in vans and kidnap them for the front?" Nazis, that's who. Those are the people with a vested interest in the war continuing and they need cannon fodder. It's sickening.
Who controls the streets, controls the country. I have heard from several Ukrainian refugees that they left because they got sick of the open nazism in their city.
The threat about taking down the government is not an idle threat. They have done it once before, in 2014. Neo-nazis are in control of Ukraine and they will be a problem for Europe down the line. Especially when the threat is ignored and downplayed: "Ukraine’s far-right fringe remains a sensitive topic in the war-torn country".
Liberals: Nazi-enablers since 1933.
Can we just get a straightforward "We regret arming neonazis to the teeth for the last ten years and cheering them on to invade Russia" already? This soft-landing walkback bullshit is so annoying.
oh sweet summer child
I understand that after WWII the CIA took control of the Banderites as a terrorist force to use against the Soviet civilians and armed forces; how NATO was cobbled together from the Nazi diaspora; how Canada imported Banderites to gut labor organization and all that. There's probably a lot more awful stuff I don't know, too.
So yeah, in the larger picture. But I was mainly referring to the time since the Maidan coup (which, of course, even then goes directly back to the previous color revolution...)
You're a well informed comrade, I appreciate you.
