    Demonization/dehumanization is what the liberal western establishment has been doing to the fascists ever since WWII and where has it lead us?

    Oh, and what is then exactly the Cold War and McCarthyism? What is Russophobia and Sinophobia? What is the hatred for black/brown/non-Caucasian immigrants in white countries?

    And what is NATO’s Chief being the same as Hitler’s army chief? Or Werner von Braun being head of NASA? Or Kurt Waldheim being the UN Secretary General? Or Walter Hallstein being Head of EU Commission?

    Writing long “both sides bad” paragraphs is not going to let you get away with this. Go balance NATO media if you are so adamant, because that is the dominant tool for actual colonialists. Calling Russia empire/colonialist/imperialist is pure white lies and an attempt to whitewash Anglo-Saxon doings by omission of argument.

      It’s precisely the result of demonizing nazism without analyzing/deconstructing its narratives and modes of operation. This is why to this day in Europe many people who would spit on a swastika can hold proto-nazi discourse without even realizing it. Antifascism is not a moral position, it’s a struggle for emancipation. Only the liberals play the moralizing game because it makes them feel good about themselves while discounting their own mechanisms of oppression.

      Calling Russia empire/colonialist/imperialist is (…) an attempt to whitewash Anglo-Saxon doings by omission of argument

      Feel free to check out my post history. I don’t exactly hide my hatred for western empires either. On the other hand, you seem very misinformed about the imperialist history of Russia (both monarchist and bolshevik). I strongly recommend you do some reading on racism and cultural supremacy in ex-USSR territories.

        I know about Duginism and Russian traditionalism, but I also know about NATO and Anglo-Saxon imperialist history, which you try to whitewash, from a 10 minute analysis of your comments.

        You have repeatedly made claims of

        • “both are imperialist assholes”
        • “people who are no fools of the Russian/NATO propaganda”
        • “you support Russian fascism”
        • “you are a puppet of the Russian empire”
        • “carefully ignore that the Russian army is also full of nazis”
        • “anti-imperialist thinkers/fighters who oppose NATO are also opposing Putin’s imperialism on Ukraine”
        • “while many national outlet are spewing NATO propaganda, others are spewing Kremlin propaganda”
        • “geopolitical concerns between the two big empires (Russia and NATO)”
        • “Putin and NATO are two sides of the same colonialist garbage”

        and so on. This is all from your comment history of the past 2 days.

        I recommend you stop being morally corrupt and play the grifty both sides trope. If you have any semblance of morality left over to self critique, go try commenting something highly critical of NATO and Ukraine’s Nazi military on Twitter and watch what happens to your tweet and account. Try it out now, and see for yourself.
