Most notably, this is a big part of how Russia "justified" their invasion of Ukraine - they claimed they were going to "de-Nazify" the country.
Like with most of their psyops, they're not inventing problems out of thin air. Instead, they magnify and exacerbate real tensions. The Azov Brigade is full of Nazis and it is a problem, but not even remotely something that requires military intervention from a foreign power.
@HumainVirtuel @georgetakei
You literally say that Poland is Russia, because it calls criminals by name - Nazis
So it's not propagnda, it's historical facts
Too bad they can't spell!
History
The word "swastika" comes from Sanskrit and means "good fortune" or "well-being".
Scholars believe the swastika originated in India and may have been used as early as 7,000 years ago.
It appears in rock and cave paintings, and on artifacts from pre-Christian European cultures.
In the early 20th century, the swastika became a popular symbol of good luck in the West.
The Nazi Party adopted the swastika as their party insignia in the 1920s
- and stuffed it up for everybody ...

There was an episode of Don't Drive Here from Discovery Canada done in India, that featured a family going to buy a new car. When they got the car, they painted an original form Swastika, complete with four dots, on the hood for good luck.
Yes, I agree with the idea but it would need a global movement to effectively restore to the swastika its rightful meaning, in view of its ban by several countries (Australia, Austria, Brazil, China, France, Germany, Israel, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Russia, and Ukraine).
Further, its current abuse by many, both absent and ignorant of its inhumane connections, has given it an undesirable revival.
Sort of like Volkswagen, the car of the Nazis…
It only became a success after Hitler shot himself (…).

"At least the #memes from this era will be killer."
The meme's.
The Healthcare.
The foreign policy.
The Immigration policy.
The Environmental policy.
Am I forgetting anything? 🤔
@georgetakei Corporations are missing out on daring campaigns.
It was already ugly!
I wonder what will finish this civilization first, climate catastrophe + species extinction or world war 3.
Going by the current trend of Russia and the US going all-in on fascism, it looks like we'll easily make the 100th anniversary of world war 2's start.
