More horrifying Russian propaganda: "What Russia should do with Ukraine"

Twitter thread starts here:







Full text:

An op-ed for state news agency RIA Novosti titled "What Russia should do with Ukraine" by pundit Timofei Sergeitsev has created quite a stir today

The rhetoric is truly horrific, even by the standards of what I'm used to seeing from pro-Kremlin media

Below are a few quotes:



"Denazification is a set of measures aimed at the nazified mass of the population, which technically cannot be subjected to direct punishment as war criminals"



"However, besides the elite, a significant part of the masses of the people, who are passive nazis, are accomplices to Nazism. They have supported the Nazi authorities and indulged them..."



"...The just punishment for this part of the population is possible only as the bearing of the inevitable hardships of a just war against the Nazi system"



"The name Ukraine can seemingly not be retained as the title of any fully denazified state formation on the territory liberated from the Nazi regime"



"Denazification is inevitably also deukrainisation – a rejection of the large-scale artificial inflation of the ethnic element of self-identification of the population of the territories of the historical Malorossiya and Novorossiya begun by the Soviet authorities"



"Unlike, let’s say, Georgia or the Baltics, Ukraine, as history has shown, is unviable as a national state, and attempts to 'build' one logically lead to Nazism"



"The Banderite elite must be liquidated, its reeducation is impossible. The social 'swamp' which actively and passively supports it must undergo the hardships of war and digest the experience as a historical lesson and atonement" END

Checking calendar.... Today's Monday, and Pootin says if it's a Monday he might use nukes, possibly Tuesday as well.

The term "nazi" is the new "terrorist".

Since 2001, calling anyone a terrorist evoked a certain level of condemnation attended by the license to do harm toward those deemed as such including waging a brutal war against them. Doesn't matter who or what is in the way, all of that can be destroyed in the name of eliminating the terrorist/nazi.

The route to destroying freedom in the world passes through the weaponization of everything in order to have an excuse to destroy the very concept and actuality of such freedom.

Just sayin', carry on.

All with a straight face...

While knowing its a lie...

And they don't care.

Russia's culture is DEEP into the dark arts.

Combined with the total pull-out around Kyiv, Putin may be handing down the Party Line to justify nuking it.
