Vice News is a liberal POS site not “Neocon talking point outlet”.

Lol, Ukraine elects a Jewish President by 73% of the people, but according to you it’s “Laden with far-right mobs”.

#13 = an excellent post.

To the left, white nationalists are people opposed to communism & totalitarianism. The anti-communists, Augusto Pinochet & Francisco Franco, would be considered white nationalists today.

“There’s a worldwide concern across the far right about European countries losing their white majorities through immigration,” Marilyn Mayo, senior research fellow at the Anti-Defamation League’s Center on Extremism, told VICE News. “There’s a sense that there’s a battle brewing to preserve white European culture, and that’s where the desire for learning combat skills comes in.”

Puuuuure HOTNESS..!!! OMG, another parting glance:

It’s well known that Ukraine is Laden with far-right mobs.

Please define what you mean by "far right".

Traditionally, anyone opposing the USSR was "far right" and a neo-Nazi.

This article is racist propaganda - nazi this, right wing that, white nationalist scary words - then you get to the middle of the article and you find these guys went and fought on BOTH SIDES of the Ukraine war - both Russian and Ukrainian and the author and other leftist propagandists...

That part jumped out at me too; I'm not familiar with vicenews.com - are they stereotypical left-wing propagandists?

Vice News traditionally a Neocon talking point outlet. I am puzzled why this article has appeared.

Probably so they can try to equate "Far-Right Extremists" with returning ISIS fighters. And then they, and their fellow leftist propagandists will claim that anyone who isn't voting Democrat is a Far Right Extremist, or a White Supremacist, or some such thing. And of course, if it is OK for someone who went to fight in Ukraine to return home it is OK for someone who joined ISIS to return home.

Note how they used the phrase "Training Ground". Training for what? How to shoot at Russians?

There is a widespread campaign by the left to blame all of societies ills on conservative white men. Regularly we hear how dangerous white men are, even though terrorist attacks inspired by Islamic fundamentalists have killed far more people around the world and in the USA. And of course none of the liberals want to admit how many lives have been lost to leftist causes.

Funny.
A Russophobia Freeper claimed Czesch President Zeman is a far-right politician.
And according to John McCain and his neocon fans, Hungary PM Orban is a neo fascist.

There is no much difference between neocon and liberal.
Neocon is a liberal in a conservative skin (as sheepskin).

If that's your definition of "far right", then most of the current Democrat party qualifies as "far right", and the term thus officially loses all meaning.

I won’t call American Russophobia LGBTQ “far-right”.

I think you will see something similar in South Africa if the governor goes forward with land expropriations. Proxy war with whites traveling from Europe to South Africa to fight
