[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DP.  A couple of points.

Russian history is difficult to use in effective propaganda, so Russians use WWII like a safety blanket.  It's comforting propaganda for them, since it's the last time the Soviets did anything remotely "righteous".  Same way the "Nazi" label works because SVR likely recruits ultra-right nationalists.  Russian's can't say much before WWII, because Stalin's ethnic purges and holodomor would work against annexation of Crimea, invasion of Ukraine, etc.

I think Putin is just using soldiers to grind as sausage to deflect physical military opposition at home.  Population is plummeting, and it's just a matter of time before Russia disintegrates into smaller chunks (they won't be able to hold current territory without population increases).

Someone should have gifted Putin a copy of Civilization IV with a sticky that says "Cultural Victory - it's a thing."[/quote]

They have all of this culture around WWII and "WE fought the Nazis" when in fact millions of the Soviet troops that fought the Nazis and pushed all the way to Berlin where they drove Hitler to hide in a bunker and eat a bullet were in fact UKRAINIANS.  Which makes it completely sick that they've now reinvented the Ukrainians to be the Nazis.  Especially when their own home grown Russians keep being found adorned with Nazi symbols.[/quote]

Because the Ukrainians were so good to the Jews and the Azov Battalion doesn’t exist
