In reply to the discussion: Ukraine's former President &Prime Minister to formalize and strengthen alliance with Neo-Nazi groups [View all]reorg
(3,317 posts)57. I am struggling to make sense of your posts, yes
If I understand correctly, you are putting forward two points of Western propaganda:
1. Russians = very bad anti-Semites (as the example of the remark falsely twisted into "Jews made the Holocaust happen" purports to demonstrate)
2. anti-Semitic Neonazis in Ukraine's government = not that bad, insignificant, fleeting accident of history, let's talk about something else.
However, you just post these without wasting any thought, apparently. If you take a step back and check the sources, you will find it is utter nonsense, hard to believe anybody can take these propositions seriously.

If we had a parliamentary system in the US, white supremacists would poll higher than 7%
