    My basic understanding of it is if you think both capitalism and communism failed, there is one ideology left to try, and these people have been indoctrinated with "communism bad and doesn't work" for the last 30 years. The collapse of the Soviet Union would be a sign to the uneducated and/or propagandized that communism doesn't work, and the last 30 years of Ukrainian history have made it clear that capitalism doesn't work. Depressed civilians then turn to the last major ideology that is coincidentally being propped up by both national and international interests, and you have the absolute disgrace that is Nazism and fascism in Ukraine today.

      I wonder how they come to terms with their ancestors died fighting so Ukrainians don’t have to be enslaved by Germans
