Someone once told me this and I now think it’s true: “Libs see the world through personalities, Marxists see the world as history.” History is shaped by material forces, not individual leaders.

That's true. Polish and Ukrainian far right is obviously anti-russian and it was a mistake on my part that i didn't include them, since it is an obviously trumped up effort to get more cannon fodder in the army in case of a conflict which is more likely to be started from the west than Russia. But if you look further, Hungarian fash are very much pro russian (so much that they're sending mercenaries to Donbass to fight for Russia), Italian and French and if i remember correctly, Greek far-right also has ties to russian oligarchs. I didn't mean he's happy about it as "he must be a fash", more like as it's a favorable development for him.
