    Lol ‘Ukrainian who fought the Russians in wwII’ automatically makes him most likely a nazi, the political history is not complex at all here, they should have checked. I can’t believe they didn’t know.

        Oh well, as long as they only cheer for the good Nazis in Parliament…

        They can’t spin this not to look like a very stupid thing to do. And with Russia calling Ukraine a bunch of Nazis, while everyone calls Wagner a bunch of Nazis, and all the tensions around the rise of fascism around the world, it’s really the worst time to make such a mistake.
