Shows just how shallow and ludicrous leader-following and mere name-following is. Unfortunately, most people, although not as extremist and violent as these sects, are followers of leaders, if passively, and judge by name (“socialist”, “communist”, “Nazi”, “liberal”) and not by substance and analysis. It’s easier. Especially when most have to eke a monotonous living and depend on the state for education.
We would say that if the Ukrainian govt cared for the workers, it would have surrendered before any killing started, thus sparing them the horrors of war.
“As it turned out, one Sarmat means minus one Great Britain,’ Solovyov boasted, suggesting the UK deserves to wiped off the map because it has become ‘totally boorish’ – in what appeared to be a reference for this country’s support for Ukraine.”
Putinist logic:
Ukraine has neo-Nazis. Solution: blast cities and town to hell and kill thousands of poor people, making others homeless.Who is the Nazi?
Even if your neighbour were a neo-Nazi, does that mean you should kill him?
The Leftist answer is yes. That tells us much about Leftists.

Putin will of course demolish the new Makhno statue, which will have been shortlived.
The war now is taking place in the heart of what was, a century ago, the most emancipated of European regions, the Makhnovshchina Free Territory – an anarchist-communist stateless region in which workers and peasants had made for themselves the closest-to-real-socialism the conditions of time and place could render possible.
Now look at it. Nationalism, massive destruction, worker against worker at the behest of two opposing capitalist interests.
Evidence that we demote and devalue history at our peril.
