      I’m literally crying looking at this. People are mad that there are 8.6% of nazis, meanwhile, over here in Russia, there’s like 7.8% reps in the upper house and <4% in the lower who might secretly NOT be a nazi. The rest are pretty open about it.

        Well you thought wrong. What even gave you that idea? Recent and older scandals have proven, that the authoritarians in Austria, Czechia and Germany (probably elsewhere too) are receiving money and orders from Putin. They’re not even nationalists in that sense, they just love fascism. Even trump with all his “America first” bs loves Putin. All enemies of democracy will work together to dismantle it.

          I thought they’d be more anti barbarism, and generally aggressive/pro war. Thanks for pointing that out, it was naive of me to think otherwise

        That’s the thing, you think that because they keep saying they like their country more than the others, a foreign leader who hates and want harms to their country would be their enemy.

        The truth is (1) they get a boner for the authoritarian way Putin leads Russia and (2) Putin treats them well because he knows that strengthening those parties weaken the country they’re in.

        Also Putin hates EU, and they hate EU. The difference is that Putin hates EU because he knows that European countries are stronger together.

          And it is not only Putin who loves this. Other Dictators also love to see the rise of extremists in Europe.

        so, what’s the story behind your apparent 10 year old coma (or some kind of hermit living)?
