There's plenty of 'Russia is everything that's wrong with the world!' in NBC's article. I think people were asking back in March of 2022, why the U.S. would put money into Ukraine with it's Nazi 'problem' and the Biden crime family's actions there, and so NBC was trying to 'balance' the scales somehow.Two images and a post from the comments in that thread.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s justification for invading Ukraine, claiming that the “denazification” of the country was “one of the dumbest things I’d ever heard.”
“I thought it was one of the dumbest things I’d ever heard,” Carlson told Fridman. “I didn’t understand what it meant.”
“I hate that whole conversation because it’s not real,” he continued. “It’s just ad hominem. It’s a way of associating someone with an evil regime that doesn’t exist anymore.”

Revmaxx is a Russian troll. HE’s been outed a few times. But as a reminder-
“I guess you ignorant of how a nuclear catastrophe and massive radiation impacts genetics. But if you were to travel there - you would find that there are all sorts of defects due to radiation damage to DNA. “
Some think Putin’s obsession with de-Nazification has to do with his brother dying in the siege of Leningrad:

It seems like a personal thing although Nazis draw a very negative reaction from Russians, for good reason.
And they've been buying Nazis since the end of the Civil War.
So I guess that all modern Ukrainians must be guilty of being Nazis because some collaborated with them 80 years ago. In like manner, all modern Germans must still be Nazis, all modern Frenchmen must be Nazis because of their collaborators during WWII, all modern Russians must be Stalinists, all modern Americans must be pro-slavery racists, etc., etc., etc.
This attempt to paint the Ukrainians as Nazis is just an attempt to dehumanize them and justify Putins actions. In the meantime, those who cry “the Ukrainians are Nazis” are silent as Russia invades Ukraine and bombs its cities, targeting civilians.

What a joke!
NBC news and Newsweek, are two (un)reliable sources for truth and insight. We are already off to a bad start, compounded by extreme side-taking. Yet I would like to understand the Ukrainian-Nazi connection to the extent that it exists.
Some Jewish people are very accomplished and have a high profile. This can be a problem for an ethnic minority. It does not matter whether one is a prominent Jewish capitalist or a prominent Jewish communist, either way it can lead to some anti-Jewish feelings.
I think of the Holodomor as the Ukrainian holocaust. Joseph Stalin was responsible. I do wonder about the level of Jewish participation in early Soviet communism, especially in regard to the Holodomor. Is there something here, or were Ukrainians simply fellow travelers of Germany?

The Nazis murdered more than 100,000 Jews in Kyiv in the course of the occupation, nearly 38,000 on one two-day stretch alone. No way to round up that many Jews in so little time unless they put their religion next to their name in the phone directory or their neighbor gave them up.
The Nazis turned to industrial murder after Kyiv/Babi Yar because the work was too hard on the Nazi executioners.
