Why are we talking about this? Why isn't anybody talking about the fact that black and brown students in Russia are told to stay inside on April 20th - Hitler's birthday? You want antisemitism? Talk to a Russian.

He is considered by Western historians as associated with the killing of Jews

Wrong! When the Ukrainian ambassador was sacked, virtually all German historians specialized on the subject said there is no evidence Bandera was involved in the killing of Jews. Like Franziska Davies. She's the most cited expert in Germany and she has categorically said "no personal involvement in the killing of Jews". She had a 39 tweet thread on the subject, strongly condemning Ukraine's Ambassador's words but also exposing the Bandera thing as Russian propaganda and conspiracy theories..

I'm not commenting on the historical figure. I'm talking about a conspiracy theory. Russian soldiers believe the man is alive. He would be 113.

But why are we talking about this? It has nothing to do with Euromaidan or Ukraine's sovereignty? It's fake news, misinformation, gaslighting, bullshit.

And it also completely takes the attention away from Russia's massive problem with militant fascist groups that Putin somehow has "under control". Back in the day before that "control" there was a documentary about militant Neonazis and Fascists in Russia called From Russia with Hate. Putin has tried to delete it off the internet but it's saved as evidence in US archives.
