    But it’s 3 German stick grenades, totally unrelated to 2 German stick grenades on the Dirlewanger brigade’s emblem.

        Right? At first glance I thought it was something like that with arrows until I zoomed in.

      legit i think that’s how it mostly goes. they either get to be poster children for recruiting efforts or get the cushy jobs of going around rounding up 45 year old dads trying to hide from MPs so they can feed their sick child

        idk Azov proved to be disturbingly motivated fighters. Sure some of them are like this, but let’s not underestimate committed fascists as fighters. Their danger goes beyond rhetoric and policy after all

            They are not heroic, but they are dangerous. They held out longer than most Ukrainians, and they are highly motivated. A troop who doesn’t want to be there will surrender sooner and be less inclined to massacre more civilians at great risk to themselves. Azov would rather murder random Greek citizens of Mariupol than actually focus on defending. It is not the Russian forces who they are a threat to

      The US put them in positions of leadership in the 2014 coup, because they were a big part of that effort. They are probably just hanging around and letting everyone else do the fighting. The Nazis are probably still not very popular in Ukraine, even as they are seen as the ultimate anti-Russia guys because Russia = USSR = the people who won WW2 against their hero Hitler.

        Since 2014 they also spent a lot of effort indoctrinating the youth with summer camps, where children were taught Ukrainian nationalism.

      Didn’t the Wehrmacht literally fight the Direlwanger brigade at one point with the Americans towards the end of the war?

      Timothy Snyder

      disgost

      Edit: for those unaware, Timothy Snyder is a big proponent of the double genocide theory - up there with Ann Applebaum and Robert Conquest - equivocates the Nazis and Soviets as being equally bad because of totalitarianism.

        This time he’s correct though, Dirlewanger was one of the worst. You can read some bits even in wiki about him and his brigade, i won’t link because of intense CW’s in entire article.

    Soon they’re going to just have a picture of Hitler as their logo and western press will explain that it’s complicated and in fact that’s not Hitler but his non-evil twin that wasn’t that bad ackhually.
