Looks like Operation Gladio C is moving ahead at a respectable pace.

Apparently it's not a human rights issue to engage in political repression by target an ethnically russian population of civilians with indiscriminate violence.

From my brief skim of an article about this, it seems like the ‘human rights violations’ part has a statute of limitations. Reading between the lines, it’s like they absolved anything that has happened since RF’s SMO started. Anything related to Donbas or the coup period is no longer relevant to this determination for the US.

Basically they are claiming they have kept ‘clean’ for like 2 years (extremely dubious claim - but easy to dismiss any reports as Russian disinformation operations). Liberals are like Charlie Brown and fascists are Lucy holding the football.

2 year SOL on war crimes is a hell of an ideological stance

It's the amount of time it takes to memory hole atrocities for the average lib

Unless it’s Tinyman Square or Hoaxdomor, then it’s eternal and infinite

a while back I compiled a list of youtube links from mainstream western media sources about Azov and other nazis in Ukraine

seems like a good time to share this again

Here is some of my list of pre-invasion articles.

they're just dunking on us, there's no great utility to arming ~2,000 max guys in a war this big, and they could've laundered it to them with minimal trouble unofficially. they're a criminal gang for fucks sake.

they could've laundered it to them with minimal trouble unofficially

implying they weren't already doing that lol

[-] absolutefuckinidiot@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 4 months ago

When you put it that way I’m extra pissed off

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 4 months ago

It's meaningless in practice, Azov is for a long time part of regular army and US was arming those and thus also Azov (as "elite" brigade they even most likely got a priority for equipment). The only point of this announcement is doubling down on whitewashing nazis.

Can't commit "human rights violations" when your defining characteristic is your belief that your enemy's blood and ancestry makes them subhumans that require extermination.

Can't recognize "human rights violations" when you exclusively define them as violations of the right to buy and sell humans.

"I'm voting for Biden because unlike Trump, he doesn't support neo-Naz- oh... uh... You sure? Ok... Like I was saying I'm supporting Biden because he likes ice cream just like me."

[-] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 26 points 4 months ago

Will zionists complain about Biden supporting antisemitism? Hmm

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 25 points 4 months ago

They're really pulling out all the stops now that it's basically over. Might as well squander any moral high ground you can claim after the fact.

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 22 points 4 months ago

The battalion, whose neo-Nazi origins have long been the subject of Kremlin propaganda, is one of Kyiv’s most battle-hardened and popular units.

All mainstream press articles also use generic photos of Ukrainian soldiers or careful angles and images that don’t have any Nazi or Azov imagery

[-] CarbonScored@hexbear.net 13 points 4 months ago

The indisputable facts of my quite literal origins as a Nazi are being subject to some sort of propaganda campaign!!

NBC really saying "Yes they're Nazis but it's Russia's fault that sounds bad".
