How about we discuss Ukraine for a moment. I will use the subject to make a variety of points.
Centuria and the Azov Brigade are both Ukrainian nationalist formations, but they occupy different places in the country’s military and political landscape. Centuria is a newer ideological movement with military ties, while Azov has evolved from a controversial militia into a formalized National Guard brigade.
Centuria emerged around 2020 as a rebranded wing of the Azov Movement’s civilian corps. It presents itself as a new organization of Ukrainian nationalists, focused on youth training, cultural defense, and rooting out corruption.
Whereas, the Azov brigade, founded in May 2014 as the Azov Battalion, a volunteer militia formed by far-right activists during the Donbas War. They were incorporated into the National Guard of Ukraine later that year, becoming the Azov Regiment, and expanded into the 12th Special Forces Brigade “Azov”in 2023.
Putin actually threw the first punch in more ways than one when he started this war. At the very start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022, the Azov Movement lost a key figure: Mykola Kravchenko, the chief ideologue of the Azov Battalion and co-founder of the nationalist organization Patriot of Ukraine. He was killed during the Battle of Kyiv on March 14, 2022. So, Putin started the war with one punch for both Zelenskyy, and the Nazi movement.
To Zelenskyy’s testament, Kravchenko politically, was aligned with a far‑right opposition movement (National Corps) that often criticized Zelenskyy’s government.
I tied this neat little bundle together because I would like to ask the “alleged” news media why everybody laughed and mocked Putin when he said he was fighting against Nazi’s?
Journalism all across the globe has become corporate swine. You now stand on dollars and cents where you once stood laurelled. Prostitution, whoredom even is more principled, at this station in our lives. You reduced yourself to this position because you lack courage. Perhaps a trip to see the Wizard of Oz will restore you. You laughed back then, are you still laughing now? (depends on whose paying).
As for the Nazi’s Putin is fighting against, Biden was all too happy to support – with billions of American dollars; lest we forget. Putin will talk to anybody, fact. But while he is smiling and shaking Trump’s hand, needs be his thoughts must be with the motherland.
You have to meet people where they are at. Not where they are perceived to be. All painted a shade of shit by the news media.
