Your loaded question on "rusophobia" aside, "examples of" is not equal to a widespread adoption of nazi ideology. Nazi/fascist elements can be found in any society that has a certain degree of freedom of speech. Only a few countries - Russia is among them, Ukraine is not - have adopted fascism as a policy.
SourceStop engaging in demagogy. The Ukrainian Azov Battalion was recognized as a neo-Nazi group by the
US Congress. 40 congressmen wanted it to be also considered a
terrorist entity, but this initiative didn't pass then. Azov is officially part of the National Guard of Ukraine. What other countries have Nazis officially in the army, if you know of such examples?
You refuse to acknowledge the obvious. In Ukraine, civil servants (SBU - possibly like those
who wear SS patches)
killed their negotiator because they thought he supported pro-Russian views, and you just brush it off, like this is all nonsense and Putin propaganda.
From the 2nd minute of
this video, SBU officer Vyacheslav Shevchuk recalled the mayor of Kremenny
Vladimir Struk, who was waiting for the "Russian peace" and who was later found shot dead with a bag on his head. From 3 minutes 40 seconds, an SBU officer tells how six citizens were executed "without trial or investigation" accused of complicity with the Russian army, that they allegedly set up beacons. Some users may say that these are cruel wartime laws. And if, under the guise of traitors, objectionable people are thus eliminated? Because without a trial they can accuse any person of betrayal and immediately shoot him.
Ukrainian President Zelensky
calls it "normal and cool" that some Ukrainians consider the
Nazi Stepan Bandera a national hero. Zelensky's adviser, Mikhail Podolyak,
says that in the south-eastern regions of Ukraine they should clear the land from collaborators and forget the word "Russian". Is it worth recalling that millions of Russian-speaking people live in these areas? Do you have any idea what will happen to them when the armed Ukrainian nationalists get there? Most likely, much worse than what happened in Donbass in 2014-2021, when 14,000 people died.
Mikhail Podolyak: "For me, it's important that we liberate the Kherson region,
and as harshly as possible for both collaborators and the Russian military.
We need the waters of the Sea of Azov.
I am in favor of forgetting the word "Russians" in the Kharkiv region.
I am in favor of forgetting the word "Russians" in the Luhansk and Donetsk regions
and that the criminal elements who call themselves the authorities should not be there physically.
Lyudmila Denisova
This is the same lady who
claims that Russian soldiers rape Ukrainian women on Putin's orders. Do you unquestioningly believe her, even if her statements about child abuse
contradict the Ukrainian Prosecutor General's Office?
Lyudmila Denisova: "The background is that they want to make it impossible for women to ever be able or want to have children again.
This is clear genocide. The soldiers rely on Putin's orders to destroy the entire country".
... Men and children are also raped. A mother was tied to a chair while her 11-year-old son was abused for 10 hours.
The 45-year-old man barely survived when he came out of his hiding place to fetch water.
They tortured and raped him.
One of those occupiers who raped Ukrainian women is in the photo. This is Bulat Lenarovych FASSAKHOV, born on November 20, 2001.
If he is guilty, he should be punished, better in Ukraine. There are hundreds of reports on the network about the atrocities of Russian soldiers. How many criminal cases have been opened and criminals named so far? None of the normal person will protect them. Ukrainian law enforcement agencies are required to publish complete information so that the thieves and rapists become known in Russia.
The Russian military also caught a Ukrainian rapist in Mariupol in April 2022. This is the deputy commander of the fire support company of the military unit A-2777, senior lieutenant
Sergei Batynsky. He raped a woman at gunpoint and killed her husband.
Nonsense sounds like a correct description of what you're doing here. Again, going out of your way to find some minor, possibly out-of-context, tangential detail and ignoring actual facts.
You often quote American and English magazines, apparently considering them indisputable authoritative sources, to accuse Russia. Even the most famous newspaper is not a judicial department to accuse anyone, because there is such a thing as "presumption of innocence". Remember this definition? The United States is the main sponsor of Ukraine's military operations and is the most active on its side, and it is unlikely that there are large independent magazines anywhere in the world that are completely outside the control of governments. For prosecution, an international independent investigation must first be carried out. I and any adequate person will not defend criminals, no matter what country they belong to, if their guilt is proven in an independent court. Articles in an American, English, German and any other newspaper can serve as an additional source of information, but in no way can be evidence of a serious crime, especially now, during the open information war between the countries of the West and Russia.
Silver lining to dictator cracking down on dissent is the creative ways to protest.
Like switching price tags in the grocery store, or hacking the TV guide:
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FvJXVnjb.png&t=655&c=WmT__TpI4z8wAw)
Just warn people that a woman who is accused of changing the price tag in a store now faces
up to 10 years in a Russian prison.
This is an illusion, and a very dangerous one for all parties.
Ukraine will not be able to regain Crimea under any circumstances, since Russia's nuclear doctrine
states that it will use nuclear weapons if the Kremlin decides that the existence of the state will be threatened.
Ukraine is preparing to
extend the mobilization, the territorial defense is being
sent to the front, criminals are being
released from prisons so that they go to war. Whereas Russia has involved so far 15% of the total Russian army (150,000 out of 1 million). In Russia, you don't even need to declare mobilization, as there are unused contract soldiers, volunteers who fully support Putin's policies, and militant citizens with combat experience who want to go to the front.
- This conflict will drag on because the act of surrender and the surrender of several regions will mean a death sentence for Zelensky. If he admits defeat, he will be executed by his own nationalists, as was the case with one of the Ukrainian negotiators, therefore Zelensky puts conditions that are impossible for Russia to fulfill, he will negotiate only if Donbass, Crimea and the Kherson region are given to Ukraine.
- Russia will not give up these territories and will continue the offensive. If the Russian command feels that they will not be able to win this war, then they can use nuclear weapons, since for it the retreat and loss of territories is comparable to self-destruction. After admitting defeat, Russia will be in a much worse position than it is now, under > 10,000 sanctions. Even those who were neutral will turn away from her, and, most likely, a civil war will begin in the country, since the Russian population will not forgive such a result to their government. Therefore, the issue of victory is a matter of survival for Russia, it cannot simply turn back.
- The US views Ukraine as its own important strategic and economic asset. The US government has invested tens of billions of dollars in Ukraine, for years prepared Ukraine for resistance to Russia, pumped it up with weapons and most likely US doesn't want to give Russia the giant shale gas deposits in the Donbass.
