Poor Russia. The only non-fascist fascist.
Ah, yes, of course, and Russia is a beautiful country, not doing imperialism right now. They are definitely not murdering innocent people on the daily

I would say both sides are fascist Libya is the best example for Nato fascism. They nationalised the oil to benefit the people and stop western cooperations from pillaging them and got invaded by Nato forces to go from one of the most prosperous countries in Africa to a failed state with an open air slave market. Had nothing to do with human rights. And Ukraine has a Nazi problem. Not a reason to invade of course (I hate the Russian government too) but just reality.

Nato and Ukraine are fascist tho… so is Russia but ignoring the other two just make you a fascist as well.

Russia is fighting Nazis to liberate Donbas. They are not doing imperialism. They are only killing Nazis.
Liberate is when ecocide?

Politics on Lemmy confuse the fuck outta me.
You get the usual blend of ⅔ mostly reasonable people and ⅓ super intense people who are not fun to talk to, they just stan different authoritarians.
It’s due to the .ml
me: “I like my current lifestyle and have a good group of close friends.”
Politicknick: “you support a LGBTQ fascist regime that is hell bent on nazifying the leftist zionistic palestinian in kiev with socialist capitalism, and you should feel horrible about yourself before we kill you and you die.”
@ lemmy.ml
What is the .ml for?
That’ll be “marxist-leninist”
The fuck did Ukraine do?
In fairness, they defied Russia and had the audacity to want to be sovereign. /S
Gasp… The audacity! How dare they!

I would, but they’ve all been deported to deep inside russia
What? You didn’t know? They secretly exterminated 6 M russian citizens on a secret 4x4 lab buried deep in Mariupol! And if you need more prove, they are fighting against Russia, they are fascists!!!
Banned all leftist political parties but left the openly nazi ones.
Ah yes, because there definitely wasn’t some other common characteristic to the (not only leftist, as you carefully avoided mentioning) parties that were banned
Something like, I don’t know, supporting the country actively invading Ukraine, perhaps?
You’re just making shit up.
Which bit did I make up?
Locked people in the Odessa trade union meeting hall and burned them alive on May 1, 2014, for starters
Source?
Edit: so I figured I go investigate for myself and by “Ukraine” you mean random citizens involved in what was basically a civil war, the people in the building were using it as a fortress, and blockaded themselves inside, and by “people” you meant Russian separatist insurrectionists, who were firing from the building and throwing Molotov cocktails into the crowd below.
They are a puppet of NATO
Lol
ml users leaking
In fairness, this sub in on the ml instance
Uh… How can a organisation like NATO be fascist?
Invasion of Libya, bombing of Yugoslavia
Going to war isn’t fascism. Fascism is not a label that means “I think they did something wrong”.

Man why do people not know what fascism is?
They are a union of the bourgeoisie of imperialist nations to defend their bourgeois and colonial interest . Fascism is capitalism in decay. And imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism.
So, after redefining fascism, they’re fascist. Got it.
If capitalism was the reason then there would be a lot more flags in the image - including Russia. Probably has something to do with a current event…

Okay
All countries are inherently fascist. If rule exists, it’s fascism.

I’m not reading every article you posted cuz I have a life, but this random one I clicked says this
To be clear, the Kremlin’s claims that Ukraine is a hornets’ nest of fascists are false: far-right parties performed poorly in Ukraine’s last parliamentary elections, and Ukrainians reacted with alarm to the National Militia’s demonstration in Kiev.
Yeah, there are neo-nazi fascists in Ukraine. And almost every other country on earth. They have a problem, and the war with Russia made it more difficult for them to deal with it. But unless you can’t point me to one article (instead of listing a dozen at a time for some reason) that indicates it’s backed by the Ukrainian government, then I don’t see why the Ukrainian flag should be included in this meme. The US flag, sure, it looks like one of the articles is suggesting the US has supported fascists in Ukraine. But not Ukraine itself, and Russia is absolutely not invading to defeat the neo-nazis in Ukraine. Especially since Putin has been a textbook fascist since he took office and has barely tried to hide it.
