Putin's favorite soldier posts a link to an interview in an attempt to prove that the people "behind Euromaidan" were fascists/"banderites", I point out that the article says the opposite. My comment gets removed, and I get banned. In other news, water is wet.
Tankies are correct when they see the Monroe doctrine and how it has been used in the Americas, yet they cannot see how Russian policy toward its neighbors mirrors it.
Not even a fig leaf on Rule 1 meaning 'dissent forbidden.'
Just so it’s known what .ml clowns are using as their alts.
What's an ethnic Russian? If they mean former citizens of Russia, Azov had plenty of them at the time.
Tankies are conservatives pretending to be normal people. Only conservatives think the opposite of "conservative" is "liberal". If you point out that "progressive" is opposite of conservative in a tankie space, you could be banned. This is because tankies are conservatives.
Conservatives are instinctively violent and hostile and ban for the slightest disagreements, especially when they are proven wrong.
Someone should tell Zelensky to stop doing shit like this because it doesn't help the situation.
Some things are better off staying buried. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a presidential decree on May 26 bestowing the honourary title of “Heroes of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army”, or UPA, on an elite unit of the nation’s special forces.
As the armed wing of the far-right Organisation of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), the UPA carved out a gruesome name for itself in the shifting borderlands between Poland and Ukraine during World War II.
It remains infamous in Poland for its role in the massacres of ethnic Poles and Jews in Volhynia and eastern Galicia – massacres that Polish historians believe killed tens of thousands civilians, and that the Polish state considers part of a deliberate campaign of genocide.
Zelensky’s decree was all the more striking for having the uneasy makings of a pattern. The day before, the Jewish president had presided over the reburial of the repatriated remains of Andriy Melnyk in the national military ceremony near Kyiv.
Melnyk, who died in Germany in 1964 and had been buried in Luxembourg, was the leader of a branch of the OUN – and a staunch advocate for collaboration between the Ukrainian nationalist movement and Nazi Germany and its fascist allies.
