  1. Very interesting. Thanks for discussing this topic. Whatever we might think about these nazi groups, it's always good to broaden our understanding of them. As was mentioned, after the war is over, it's worth keeping an eye on their activities.

  2.  @petefrys545  I don't know where you're from, but Nazi-, Fascist-, White Power-, Nationalist groups started growing all over central and eastern Europe very quickly after the wall fell. I remember this clearly on a visit to Budapest in 1992, where I was faced with some of those people. Widespread youth unemployment and a general feeling of despair led some young men to join these movements. This was, and is, a trend we saw all over the east, including in Russia. Fortunately, these groups are generally a small minority everywhere, including in Ukraine. As for Russia, I don't expect the Russian authorities to clamp down on these groups because they often serve the governments interests. Russia is a spiritually rotten wasteland, let's just make that clear.

  3. Unless people state what kind of world they're aiming for, the slogan "New World Order" can really mean anything to anybody.

  4.  @angelamonk716  Personally, it makes me think of the 80s synth band New Order. "Blue Monday" was a big hit when I was in high school.
