Sept. 30 (UPI) – Elon Musk is under fire after publicly backing a far-right political party in Germany, suggesting the current government should not be re-elected over its position on the current migrant crisis in Europe.

      And what was the path which made that possible in Ukraine and Italy? They didn’t fall to fascist populists while being a power which strengthens fascist populists globally. It’s hard to see what kind of 4D chess would make Ukraine create fascist minded separatists to be conquered and then fight them with neonazi militia.

      The USSR was quite aligned with their own take on fascism. That’s history.

          I don’t think there’s any question if the USA is influencing Ukraine?

          I tried to say earlier that the neofascists and its support in Italy didn’t come from nowhere organically. And that support leads to gaining power through elections (I guess as opposed to a coup or whatever?) as nations with elections do

      Russia has a bigger fascist government than Ukraine.

      The invasions of sovereign nations, the vilifying of the people in those nations, the kidnapping and other atrocities, the influencing of other nations politics through lies and manipulations, the gulag are just Russian concentration camps, the giant propaganda machine which you fell victim to (or are perpetrator of).

      All classic fascist tactics.

      They can claim they are “anti fascist”, but their actions are clearly fascist.
