We disavow but not really.The Gravel Institute's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtOx6dW_0vU&ab_channel=TheGravelInstituteCheck out my Patreon: https:...
I stopped after he was comparing Banderites to members of ISIS and how their politics have to be reactionary to defend themselves against invaders. It’s just a repetition of what the State Departments wants you to think of these events.
EDIT: I skipped around the video at 31:17 and he’s going like “WE HAD TO INTEGRATE THE AZOV BATTALION, UKRAINE DIDN’T HAVE A CHOICE!!!”. Literally the same arguments used to justify Hitler. This is the brainrot that comes from ‘realist’ geopolitical analysis, no opinion from the masses.
Also cites radio free europe as a source to dismiss anti-Semitism attacks. It seems like we’ve forgotten that a big part of the Nazi ideology was also anti-slavic so it’s simply not to say that “they cannot be nazi’s because jews are in the azov battalion” (ignoring how modern day Israel resembles much of Nazi policies in trying to make a settler colonial state against Palestine).

i have heard this exact argument made for why being gay had to be recriminalized in the USSR before
and it’s cringe and wrong when those people use it, too
