Putin is no Christian.
It’s almost funny how the justifications for this war by Putin are made.
The top of the list is a war of denazification.
As I have asked many times, what does it mean to be a nazi these days?
There are peoples all over the world who call themselves neonazis. Here in the USA, seems quite a few in palistine and pro palistinian “protests”….
I see leftists wearing Che t-shirts as well which is also quite humorous, but what does it mean to be a nazi or neonazis today.
What were the nazis of ww2 era, and how does that relate to today?
The nazis of then were a political party led by a cult of personality in the form of hitler. A person that ruled with violence, control, and absolute power over the people and the country.
What were the characteristics and actions of that party and their leader?
Absolute control of everything. nazis were facists, but they were not unique then or now. Much like communists and socialist(socialist was part of their name , national socialist party) is just different ways of saying dictatorship.
They had a secret police that put fear in the population to keep order and control. They believed that they, their “race” was superior and therefore justified in their actions. They invaded neighboring countries to create “Lebensraum “ (living space) for their race. Committed genocide, enslaved, and rained destruction on those countries for their sake, and justified it all. The “rats” scene In Inglorious Bastards “ was one of the best explanations I have seen to justify their actions
All of this rant is to ask a simple question, of all the parties involved in this conflict Ukraine, Russia, US, NATO….. which of these more resembles the actions of the WW2 era nazis and hitler?
Leave that up to you all to answer that
