@ChristiJunior oh no... I just got to the de-nazification part.
Oh no... He's speaking like a true globalist. I have no idea, if he was advised, that it would be a best strategy, but it makes him sound like an unwanted child of Klaus Schwab...
@LukeAlmighty@ChristiJunior That's my big issue with the Russian narrative, the anti-nazi stuff (when it's all jews behind the scenes), it's some massive lack of self-awareness... sigh. I mean Russia and China, in the current context, are the closest thing to 1930's national socialist Germany. I did a meme some time ago. poa.st/@kamehamic/posts/AT561VROGgggy9zwlE
@LukeAlmighty Ultimately, Putin is a Soviet nostalgist, so the ex-Soviet countries are the ones I'd be concerned about, not all the old Warsaw Pact countries. Moldova is a country people should keep their eyes on since, it has A LOT in common with both 2008 Georgia and Ukraine:
1) Ex-Soviet country 2) Struggles with a separatist republic that Russia supports 3) Its longtime-ruling pro-Russian leader has been replaced by a pro-Western president
That said, I do think that the Ukraine war has been so draining that even when Russia eventually wins, it won't be able to mess with Moldova for a good while. During that time, the West should look into ways of lessening Russian fears about Western encirclement and regime change policies without emboldening Russian expansionist ambitions. Dropping the sanctions + agreeing to no NATO membership for Ukraine in return for Russia recognizing the ex-Soviet countries as legitimate states and their borders as fixed would be a good starting point for negotiations.
@LukeAlmighty To be fair, in Russia there's not really any contradiction between being a far-right ultranationalist and being anti-Nazi, because Nazis are primarily defined as Mother Russia's great Enemy that killed more than 20 million Russians, and which all Russians today are extremely proud of defeating almost on their own.
I assume that the same way that anyone who's anti-Globalist in the West gets labeled a "Nazi", anyone who's anti-Russian gets labeled as a Nazi by Russians.
@kamehamic@LukeAlmighty There's no rehabilitating National Socialism in Russia, it caused too many Russian deaths, and defeating Nazi Germany is pretty much considered Russia's crowning achievement as a country.
You can always push for policies that are fascist/Nazi in terms of substance, but that particular label is radioactive in Russia, for understandable reasons.
Ironically, it almost seems like Russia is full of anti-Nazi Nazis, while Ukraine is full of Nazis controlled by kikes (AZOG).
@ChristiJunior@LukeAlmighty >Ironically, it almost seems like Russia is full of anti-Nazi Nazis, while Ukraine is full of Nazis controlled by kikes (AZOG). In a meta irony sense it's jewish characteristic (being anti-nazi while being the closest thing to it, like jews being pro immigration while their country is an ethnostate). That's why I think this narrative is bound to fail, at some point "what goes around comes around".
@kamehamic@ChristiJunior@LukeAlmighty something about the jews being so desperate for nazis to justify their inane bullshit that they manufacture their own kosher brand of nazis.
@ChristiJunior@kamehamic@LukeAlmighty Eh, politically maybe but it is very similar to America (Russia and America are very similar in a number of ways) in that World War II is the great victory but in reality it destroyed both countries and the world in general.
So for a politician to come out and openly embrace Nazis is silly, but they could have a different perspective on the war in that it never should have happened, but since it did, Russians/Americans fought to defend their homelands.
The problem I have is this same "Well they HAVE to say that" perspective that has led to supporting so many "based right-wingers" only to have it end up, nope, they weren't just saying that. They really believed it.
@samjayganges@ChristiJunior@LukeAlmighty I'm not saying Russia has to embrace national socialism, I don't think they don't even have to mention it, but there is big a difference between: Being very vocal about "nazis bad" and never mentioning the jews. And: Just ignore the nazi stuff but mention who is really behind the Ukraine conflict (and most of the issues in the world right now). Or do both, in the end even if they are anti-nazi the main issue is the JQ.
If Putin would reverse what he ignored to what he is vocal in those issues I (and everybody?) would be Russia "numba one". In the interview there were several times where Tucker asked "but who do you think is behind X?" for any up to speed person the answer would easily have been "the jews" but Putin always went for "I don't know" which is very sus. I'm still pro Russia anyway, because they are forcing a lot of ZOG issues + acceleration, but I don't think this behavior is good foreshadowing.
