To celebrate August 24 Vladimir Zelensky took to Instagram to upload a series of portraits of commanders born in post-Soviet Ukraine.

Unsurprisingly one serviceman’s image, alongside his full name and credentials, was pictured wearing a Nazi insignia of the 14th Waffen-SS Grenadier Division.

That unit of the SS recruited primarily Ukrainian collaborators, and has been accused of committing several massacres in Poland.

    I just presume you aren’t going to defend China’s exploitation of other countries for the sake of resources (just like the US) or repressive manners of its state capitalism? Or will you?

      Of course I am. Because that’s not what China does and you are consuming pure propaganda if that is what you believe. America’s empire is built upon exploitation through debt, China’s is not. Yes China uses loans, but if you have been led to believe that these loans are in any way remotely comparable to America’s then you have not actually looked into them in any way whatsoever.
