A Ukrainian Neo-Nazi soldier visited the Auschwitz death camp wearing a shirt quoting Hitler in order to mock the camp’s victims. This is the type of truly fascist scum that billions and billions of US taxpayer dollars are going to fund and arm.
So let me get this straight: if I don’t want to ethnically cleanse Palestinians I’m an anti-semite. But if I wear a camp auschwitz t-shirt while doing the roman salute, NATO will send me billions of dollars?
Who wants to take on for the team? Wear a Nazi shirt to Auschwitz, take the billions of dollars of weapons, then immediately turn them over to Palestine? I hear Gaza could use some Patriot missiles and Javelins.
It’s already happening. Arms meant for Ukraine end up in the hands of resistance fighters. Obviously corrupt Ukranians are selling the stuff they get to the black market.
were they also shooting in the right direction when they were attempting to ethnically cleanse ukraine of uh… ukrainians?
No. In fact I don’t have any respect nor any sympathy for them. That said, today I rather have then dying to push back the invasion than Ukrainian civilians forced to join the army.
In either case, it’s not like weapons are given to them to let them do what they would do if they were completely free (thankfully), so OP argument seems invalid to me. It’s a disgrace that the West is not only not defending Palestine, but aiding Israel, but this doesn’t make it automatically wrong to arm Ukrainians. It’s not like they are not sending weapons to Gaza because they finished to send them to Ukraine.
That Nazi minority seems to end up in front of Western news cameras a lot. Weird since those new agencies have an incentive to downplay the presence of far right elements in the Ukrainian military. It’s almost like they’re so embedded in their forces that war corespondents can’t help but pick up a few dudes with SS tattoos
Yes, because the weapons are sent directly to these guys so that they can use it to exterminate Jews
That’s exactly what’s happening.
The Azov group has literally been reorganized into one of the major and most well equipped special forces brigades in the Ukrainian army, the same is true for all the premier units with open banderites in charge of the command structure
The only reason you’re feigning ignorance about this is because Ukrainian state and social media isn’t readily observable in the west, so you dipshits can pretend that neo-nazism isn’t the dominant force in Ukrainian cultural and poltical life
The locus of nazism is ethnonationalism, racial purity, and eugenics. Killing Jews, communists, socialists, non-chosen peoples and other so called undesirables is downstream of ethnonationalism, not the other way around.
It is not possible for me to tell if you are doing bad faith nazi apologia or if you are just ignorantly doing nazi apologia because of lifelong exposure to anticommunist brainworms. If you are actually good faith about wanting to understand fascism and nazism in ukraine then I encourage you to spend time reading the news comm and various theory about the origins and definition of nazism and fascism.
Regardless, I am temp banning you for the time being because nazi apologism has absolutely no place on this board. If you are willing to learn, demonstrate that willingness with whatever you post in a month.
What pisses me off even more is how common shit like this is at Auschwitz, fucking place is ran like fucking disney world with almost no reverence given to the horrific crimes against humanity beyond a bit of lip service served with a heaping side of zionism
I don’t think there is a gift shop (it wasn’t when i was there last time at least) nor any other shop in the camp itself, but food shops and the like are nearby since a lot of tourists and school trips going there.
If the USSR was still around they’d put these guys to death, especially since many of the soldiers that liberated the camp were Ukrainian/from Ukraine
Gee everyone I think giving these guys weapons might be a bad idea
