@ChernobogStudio - “wolfsangel” This tool & symbol had been used across East & West Europe for hundreds of years before the short rise & fall of Fascism in Western Europe. It is used on forest Ranger uniforms, flags of small towns carved out of the forest, etc. You and I likely never needed to kill wolves, who attacked our villages from the forest. Sure, we have fairy tale books, but that is about as close as we get. These are no poodles, they are massive predators! Wolves being aggressive animals, which attack & kill prey, the tool is representative of Europeans who have carved out civilization & safety. Honestly, with the Russian “wolves” coming in to destroy the Ukraine, as they fight a defensive battle, it seems to be a historically applicable symbol. Destroying villages & killing the people, in their packs before retreating to their forests, seems to more closely align to the wolf than the bear. Considering the Red Russian invaded Ukraine ~100 years ago, before the real rise of Fascism, it is clear that this invasion has nothing to do with fascism, but rather Putin trying to make a name for himself in the history books, likely before a natural demise. That all being said, NI interposed stands for National Idea, the understanding that Ukraine is a nation. It is kind of flattering that the century old European symbol is being associated with this Ukraine forces, since it demonstrates Ukrainian history of carving out their nation in this region, even demonstrating Ukraine’s association with Western & Eastern Europe (vs more Asian Russia), but NI are initials for National Idea.

@CaresforAll - “NAZI” National Socialist (NAZI) is different than someone who loves his nation (Nationalist)

@jemma_19988 - “Jewish Zelenskey will invite them down to his local synagogue” You spelled Zelenskyy wrong. The Russian naZi’s probably already bombed his local synagogue, along with the theaters, hospitals, schools, and other civilian targets. Either that, or naZi tattooed Russian Wagner group personnel, named after Hitler favorite composer, probably blew it up during their various assassination attempts. If Zelenskyy can get some relief to Mariupol, I bet they will shower his likely bombed synagogue with flowers when they are out!

@AnoJanJan - “Ukraine + NATO + EU” Ummm… Russia spans 2 continents with nearly unlimited Human Resources over a small nation like Ukraine, who is basically fighting on their own. EU & NATO have sent no soldier to fight. You really have no idea what the NATO military is really like. Putin is using left over military equipment from the old USSR imperialists, Ukraine is using mostly leftovers from other Eastern Eastern European countries who are getting rid of their old USSR military stocks. Sure, Putin has a few new tools in his tool box, just as a few hand held missiles are being sent to Ukraine. It is a shame that Putin sent Russian boys into the Ukrainian meat grinder. Guy is an idiot. Russia needs those boys & men to sustain Russian Civilization, instead he is destroying it all in a neighboring nation.

@XgiannettoX - people who fight invaders are not extremists, they are quite normal. Some leaders who were openly distributing non-Ukrainian propaganda were released from their leadership positions, non-Ukrainian propaganda removed, new army leadership assigned, and the current units have submitted to the new Ukrainian leadership. Right now, the only Nazis left are Putin & his assigned followers trying to kill the Jewish president of the Ukraine. Those are the current naZi’s, with their Z logos.

@Man_v_Cars - the KKK just changed their white hoods to black hoods in the US ;-) They still support Socialism. That is all racism is, just another type of socialism.

@CaresforAll - ‘“Z” is for victory’ When Putin said he is invading the neighboring nation for the sake of the Russian peoples there, the same way Hitler said he was invading neighboring nations for the sake of German speaking peoples, it is very clear to the rest of the world: Russia’s “Z” is for naZi

@elcormoran1 - “do you like Nazis” No one likes the Putin’s invading Russians, who are invading a neighboring for the sake of Russian speaking peoples, the way Hitler’s naZi’s invaded neighboring nations for the sake of German speaking peoples. naZi’s fought aggressive conquest wars in Europe, just like Putin’s Russia is now sending in Asian & Wagner naZi tattoo adorned soldiers into the Ukraine, wiping out whole Europe’s villages The same way the SS did under Hitler. Nope, no one likes naZi’s

@IzzyGside961 - “let’s not pretend that Ukraine doesn’t have streets named after it’s…” Red Communist heroes. Ukraine is a diverse nation, where Red Communist Russians killed millions during the Holodomor, less than 100 years ago. Ukrainians still have memory of the mass starvation of Ukrainians, who did not approve of the Red Russian takeover & control of their nation… no one with the smallest understanding of history would ever believe that Russia could invade Ukraine on roughly the 100th anniversary of the last invasion and not believe another genocide is coming. Putin is little more than another Hitler or Stalin. All three are basically the same, from an annexation & genocide perspective. The conquerors approved, the survivors did not.

@antizombie5446 - “everyone knows that…” Wolfsangel pre-dated & post-dated the brief National Socialist use in the mid 1940’s. Socialists are funny! ROTFL! Know history, reject manipulation Today, Z is for naZi

@jamespaton3853 - “Azov knows…” That is projection. When the Putin repeatedly claims the invasion is for the sake of Russian speaking peoples, it is no difference from the WW2 fascists saying their invasions are for German speaking peoples.
