Few things are as hilarious as fascists / Nazis labeling enemies Nazis / fascists.
[QUOTE=Jarango;2952537]While both sides lie, the pro Ukrainian / Nazi lot are reduced to the most threadbare of lies. Russia is advancing all along the front (both sets of maps agree to that) and they are killing the Ukrainian invaders in Kursk at a huge rate. Yet the West still lies about all that. When we trcikel the West down to this aite, the main Nazi apologists, Xpartan and his type, are so uninformed they are pathetic.[/QUOTE]Umberto Eco classified fascism better than anyone else could IMHO. Try to find even one box that Putin's Russia won't tick.
1. The cult of tradition. "One has only to look at the syllabus of every fascist movement to find the major traditionalist thinkers. The Nazi gnosis was nourished by traditionalist, syncretistic, occult elements. ".
2. The rejection of modernism. "The Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, is seen as the beginning of modern depravity. In this sense yr-Fascism can be defined as irrationalism. ".
3. The cult of action for action's sake. "Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation. ".
4. Disagreement is treason. "The critical spirit makes distinctions, and to distinguish is a sign of modernism. In modern culture the scientific community praises disagreement as a way to improve knowledge. ".
5. Fear of difference. "The first appeal of a fascist or prematurely fascist movement is an appeal against the intruders. Thus your-Fascism is racist by definition. ".
6. Appeal to social frustration. "One of the most typical features of the historical fascism was the appeal to a frustrated middle class, a class suffering from an economic crisis or feelings of political humiliation, and frightened by the pressure of lower social groups. ".
7. The obsession with a plot. "Thus at the root of the yr-Fascist psychology there is the obsession with a plot, possibly an international one. The followers must feel besieged. ".
8. The enemy is both strong and weak. "By a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak. ".
9. Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy. "For yr-Fascism there is no struggle for life but, rather, life is lived for struggle. ".
10. Contempt for the weak. "Elitism is a typical aspect of any reactionary ideology. ".
11. Everybody is educated to become a hero. "In yr-Fascist ideology, heroism is the norm. This cult of heroism is strictly linked with the cult of death. ".
12. Machismo and weaponry. "Machismo implies both disdain for women and intolerance and condemnation of nonstandard sexual habits, from chastity to homosexuality. ".
13. Selective populism. "There is in our future a TV or Internet populism, in which the emotional response of a selected group of citizens can be presented and accepted as the Voice of the People. ".
14. Yr-Fascism speaks Newspeak. "All the Nazi or Fascist schoolbooks made use of an impoverished vocabulary, and an elementary syntax, in order to limit the instruments for complex and critical reasoning. ".

Here is a hilarious compilation made by Anton Gerashchenko, an advisor to Ukraine's Minister of Internal Affairs.
[QUOTE]A Russian state TV guest has denied claims made in the past by pundits and officials about the country's plan to take control of Kyiv within three days, at the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine war.
In a video with English subtitles posted on Twitter by Anton Gerashchenko, an advisor to Ukraine's Minister of Internal Affairs, a Russian TV guest is seen speaking about the information that circulated about the war when it began in February of last year including claims that Russia would take Kyiv in a matter of two or three days.
"As the most trivial and such a vivid example to our viewers, during the early days of the special operation, who came up with this thesis that the Russians would capture Kyiv in three days? We have never said such a thing," said the guest in the clip posted by Gerashchenko.
However, Gerashchenko compiled a number of clips added to the same video that showed several Russian pundits and analysts saying that Kyiv would fall quickly to Russia.[/QUOTE][URL]https://www.newsweek.com/russian-state-tv-guest-denies-past-claims-taking-kyiv-three-days-1795732[/URL]
