    There are of course fascists to be found in Russia, but their numbers are dwarfed by those in Ukraine, and the support the Russian state gives them is negligible compared to what the Ukrainian state gives its Banderite fascists.

      Wild how they suddenly fall silent when this is pointed out. Also they kinda forget that the Russian Nazis did try to coup Putin and they got fucking smoked. I’m by no means a big fan of the current Russian state, they’re liberal reactionaries and transphobic and homophobic to boot but they aren’t the same as the actual Nazis being backed by the west.
