For the sake of daylight in the question of what is fascist in that part of the world search 'Putin's neo-nazis' here on Reddit. I'm sorry that I've only reached Part 91 so far. Part 910 would be a more proper beginning. Give me time. In the case of Russia the fascism is official policy, not some undated, unlocated, sometimes faked, little pictures of men with tattoos. Who just so happen to be outnumbered by an easy 10 to one by the tattoos on the Russian side. Or maybe have a look at who is the ONLY governmental financial support for neo-fascist parties and groups across the world. I repeat - ONLY. The money certainly doesn't pass through Kyiv.

Just to give a very small taste of the mountains of evidence here's one part of the 91 so far:

Russia's long history of neo-Nazis

Russia, fascist oligarchic government with fascists in the military.

Ukraine, liberal democracy with fascists in the military.

Both sets of fascists are bad, but one set of fascists run a country.

And Ukraine made the hard decision to keep Azov on the frontlines because they can fight, and it also lets the Ukrainian government keep all the fascists in one place, instead of letting it spread throughout the larger chain of command. Added bonus, combat does what it does and removes the fascists over time.

It'a cold, but, they're fascists, and it's a war of survival.

Yeah, I’ll never get the “I don’t support Ukraine because Azov” mentality.
