Russo-Ukrainian War 2014-23 and Invasion

Putin has to know that a Jewish Nazi is an oxymoron.  The Azov regiment is a band of scumbags, but Putin has his own Chechen gang of scumbags, so the existence of a Ukrainian equivalent can't be what is setting him off, if he is rational.

A more direct equivalent is the Wagner Group, whose leader is an actual neo-Nazi:

At gas stations on the Autobahn, a gallon of fuel is now more than $10. Thanks, Putin.

Who's gonna tell them that biological lab != researching offensive bio weapons?





Interesting, though, how they adopt the Kremlin line on this.

I have it on good authority that Ukraine is in league with a cabal of secret vampires to blot out the sun.

Here's how TASS reports it. I love how the article closes, saying that while there was a network of 30(!!) labs, all the evidence was destroyed. "It totally happened and we have these totally trustworthy documents about it ... why there is no evidence? Because they removed ALL OF IT!"

My God Russia's propaganda game is weak.

Yikes. Is that from his Tinder profile?

He's no Nazi or SS sympathizer, he probably just loves the cool look of their units' white on black counters.

Years ago a party at a home was busted by police in Hungary after somebody reported they had a massive SS sign hanging from their balcony. Their excuse was, it was "44" in lightning bolt signs because they were celebrating the 44th birthday of an electrician.    To little surprise some of those people got into some other nazi shenanigan a bit later.

Like the Austrian guy who on the gate in his garden fence had the inscription: "Arbeit macht frei!"

He argued that as a self employed tradesman that was his life motto, and he had NO IDEA that it had a connection to concentration camps.

Welcome to Putin's summer camp ...

Nashi, the Kremlin's youth organisation, holds a lakeside get-together each year for its followers. Its official mission is to fight fascism. So what do mass weddings, rabbit T-shirts and the Benny Hill theme tune have to do with it all? Luke Harding reports

The rule is simple; every nasty thing that Putin accuses Zelensky and Ukraine of being he is actually talking about himself and Russia.

Indeed, that's a simple and very correct rule which has also been applicable to Orban and his goons in Hungary. If they are doing or planning to do something, they accuse the opposition with the same thing. Works pretty well to be honest.
