    Now show the tattoos of the Wagner higher-ups. Oh oh! And also the numerous Russian soldiers seen photographed with Nazi tattoos. Oh you could also show some photos of the Floridian Neo Nazis, or maybe the far right extremist group that Germany just put pressure on. It’s almost as if there are idiots with racist and bigoted ideologies everywhere around the world.

        My point in bringing up Florida and Germany is that both have recently seen an outpouring of Nazi ideology. You seem to have fixated on Ukraine, a nation currently being invaded by an imperialist nation, and doing its best every single day to oust corruption and other bad parties from within its borders. Why do you say Wagner is run by crazies and not Nazis? In the plane crash that killed Prigozhyn and several other higher ups in Wagner, Prigozhyn’s second-in-command, Dmitry Utkin, was only able to be recognized because of the distinctive Nazi tattoos he had on his chest and shoulders.

            You defend Russia, a country known for repeatedly invading other nations for reasons that change every other week, that also constantly say that “Europe is next” and other propagandist rhetoric. Just watch some Russian state TV to get a taste of that.

            Man you are really simping hard for Wagner, a PMC that cut a man’s head off while he was still alive and filmed the whole thing, a PMC that has committed numerous documented war crimes in Ukraine and bragged about them on social media, a PMC that executes people with sledgehammers and then sends said sledgehammers to the EU to brag, a PMC that has been systematically destroying nations in Africa and aiding rebellions. I think they have a few openings in their administration if you’re looking for work.

            You claim that calling Russia imperialist ignores the current context of the war? What context would that be? The one where Russia wants to return to its imperial borders by invading and suppressing its neighbors’ sovereignty? What context did I miss?

                The mental hurdles you’re flying through would make you Olympic athlete. NATO is an enemy of Russia? Sure NATO was created as a counter to Soviet aggression, but then why isn’t NATO invading Russia given that their enemy is weakened and demoralized? It’s because NATO is a defensive organization. How was Ukraine helping NATO? By wanting to join and be protected against Russia who would likely invade, rape, kill, pillage Ukraine? Oh wait that’s what they’re currently doing.

                Lol what biolabs? The ones that no physical evidence has ever turned up? The ones that only exist in Russia’s narrative? You’re saying I don’t want Europeans liberated? Liberation from what and by whom? Russia “liberates” ethnicities by sending them off to the front lines to be killed in a meat grinder. Ask the Chechens and the Tatars. You’re the only pro-colonialist here.

                I must admit though I’m very impressed with the amount of disinformation you’ve put out in these last few messages. You must either be on Russian payroll or have been drinking that propagandist Kool-Aid.

                Your beloved Russians would love to tear LGBTQ people apart limb by limb. They’re currently doing it to Ukrainians.

                    Better than what Russia has.

                    Once the “west” falls the next target of Russian fascism will be “communism”. I’m literally living in a de facto Russian satellite state, I know it better.
