includes a translation of Putin’s entire speech from yesterday Jun 14
Okay! Well just remember every time you go saying that phrase, you’re pretty much saying fascist shit. Especially considering how OUN and Bandera were Nazi collaborators and liked to say that phrase. While at it, go read every atrocity Bandera and his ilk committed to! Just to point something else out to.
It was at the Warsaw trial that the OUN first started using the slogan “Slava Ukraini” publicly in combination with the Roman (Nazi) salute. Vira Svientsitska was the first to shout the slogan with salute in court as she was being dragged from the courtroom for refusing to testify in Polish. Bandera and Mykola Lebed would shout the slogan at their sentencing.
Maybe do some reading, like from that link! Or go double down on willful ignorance.
Sigh As always on hexbear you nitpick what you like and ommit all sourrounding context.
There is 180 years of context sourrounding this phrase.
Let me give you the tldr: Yes fascists used the phrase for a couple of years around the 40s and one should not forgett that (this is where we agree). However Ukrainians have refused to give the phrase to the nazis and after a cooldown period started to use it mostly as a “Battlecry” for resitance.
But most important is the contemoprary context. Currently (and you know this) “Slava Ukraini” is used as a sign of resistance against the russian aggressors and as a sign of support towards Ukrain.
Maybe you should stop supporting actual facists by calling everyone who is not licking putins boots a facist.
There is 180 years of context sourrounding this phrase.
Funny how losers like you will hem’n’haw and “um-acktually” about bullshit technicalities to weasel your way out of having to explain why you openly support fascist Ukraine then piss your pants and scream when anyone on hexbear explains the context that occured in the color counter-revolution that happened a decade ago.
If Ukraine is trying to distance itself from Nazis why does Zelensky clap for Yaroslav Hunka and glaze the First Galician SS members, who were not only nazis but guilty of some of the most horrifying abuses in Ukraine? Why does every second picture of a Ukrainian soldier shows them wearing a black sun, the OUN patch, a totenkopf, a wolfsangel, or other fascist iconography? Why did Azov nazis get brought further and further into the fight, instead of being shunned and arrested for beint a literal neo nazi militia who were commiting war crimes against Russian speaking Ukrainians?
Maybe you should stop supporting “fascists” and start supporting fascists
Deeply unserious poster who is so ignorant of geopolitics and history that they oppose “facism”
When was the cooldown period? How long? When did people stop flying the flag of the OUN-B or idolizing Bandera? Never? Pretending it’s one slogan is a diversion, clearly, it is an example of the wider trend of extremist Ukrainian nationalism
