    Oh. Oh no. Oh no no no.

    During WWII, Ukrainian nationalists saw the Nazis as liberators from Soviet oppression. Now, Russia is using that chapter to paint Ukraine as a Nazi nation

    This is the age we live in

    edit:

    From the Ukrainian side of the debate, the country’s wartime history is more complex. Are the nationalists “bad guys” because they participated in the Holocaust, Shevel asks, or “good guys” because they fought for independence?

      From the Soviet point of view that Putin still embraces, it’s simple, she says: The Holocaust aside, Ukrainian nationalists were “bad guys” because “they fought the Soviet state.”

      Imagine ever writing the phrase "The Holocaust aside", jesus fucking christ.

      On the one hand they murdered Jews and Romas on an industrial scale but in the other hand they wanted to have some shitty right-wing dictatorship that was flying their flag so who can tell whether they were bad or not?
