No, Nazism Is Not Why Putin Invaded Ukraine

If you fell for this, you are a midwit who should be barred from voting or running a blog, and possibly even sterilized, frankly.

I promised to lift the strike when I got 10 new paid subs and I intend to be true to my word. This actually already occurred yesterday. Personally, I’d rather keep it going a few more days, but hey, a deal is a deal. Thank you for the support! You won’t regret it!

We are still bringing the newbies up to speed.

So, basically, the narrative put forward by this blog regarding the SMO is as follows:

• the real reason for the invasion of Ukraine was an inter-oligarchic spat

• Putin wanted to rescue and restore his personal friend and adopted family member Medvedchuk to political power

• Kiev is ruled by God’s Chosen and the women underlings that they hire who believe in neoliberalism and gender communism, not by Nazis

• There isn’t a single Nazi in power in Zelensky’s cabinet or in the rada

• The Donbass ran Ukraine as the political and economic power center for many years

• Many of the same non-Russian Donbass crime families still run politics in the newly annexed territories and in Kiev as well

• Putin essentially restored Ukraine’s sovereignty and signed a Minsk 3 several months into the SMO

• Putin agreed to rent Crimea from Kiev and Donbass was probably to be reintegrated into Ukraine like Minsk I and II were supposed to do

• More importantly, Putin’s oligarch buddies from the east would have their rights and assets restored

• He embarked on this special policing operation because he got a green-light from Langley and assurances that they would not interfere

• This turned out to be untrue, and Putin got tricked, as he likes to whine and remind us

• Washington had not expected Putin’s SMO to be so haphazard and weak, but saw a golden opportunity to turn Ukraine into an Afghanistan for Russia

• Both sides largely being unprepared led to the chaos of the first months and really the first year of the SMO which had turned into a Not-War (illegal to say “war” in Russia)

• NATO, however, has gradually been arming up and preparing to take this fight to the next level

• Russia under Putin, in contrast, has shown that they are unserious and weak and unable to mobilize the country

• The Kremlin has had to rely on feudal warlords like Kadyrov and Prigozhin and other mercenary groups instead of on a national army like Ukraine can

• Ukrainian-style repression in Russia has begun, with both left-wing and right-wing critics of the Kremlin’s Not-War being silenced

• The real Kremlin now is to cobble together a N/S Korea style divide with a DMZ zone

• This plan is half-baked and impossible to pull off because of Russia’s understaffed military

• Kiev will go on the offensive again once they reorganize, raise more men and secure more funds

I’ve written about all these points extensively.

Now, the interview with Putin that Tucker did was total propaganda nonsense for several reasons. The first and most important reason is one that I have heard no one bring up yet, which is a sad reflection on the state of modern political commentary indeed.

What Putin blathered on about had nothing to do with real world modern-day Slavlands politics.

Putin spent an hour lecturing Tucker about the Duchy of Lithuania and the Holocaust. Talking about ancient history is the perfect way to obfuscate the pertinent policy details that actual informed citizens need to be able to understand what is really going on. In fact, that is why Putin launched into his history lesson — to change the subject of “what does denazification mean” and to tire Tucker out with nonsense.

If he really wanted to inform the Western dissident audience that Tucker represents, he could have explained what “neo-Ukraine”, this fabricated entity cobbled together after the implosion of the USSR really is and how it was really run and for what reason.

So, did Putin explain the birth-pangs of the modern neo-Ukrainian state? Did he comment on the assassination campaign carried out by President Kuchma and his anti-Russian policies? No? Why not? Have you even heard of Kuchma and why he is important? You haven’t? And yet you have an opinion on neo-Ukraine? Well, let’s just say you should read up first. And this is a perfect opportunity to do so seeing as I’ve written about it in great depth.

And is this not more relevant than *squints* the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from 400 years ago? Ukraine has a sordid and turbulent 30 year modern political history. The causes for the Not-War were laid down in these 30 years, not during the alleged Holocaust and Putin know it. But he also knows that you don’t know anything about it or anything about how politics really works. So, he told you a bunch of irrelevant nonsense.

And it seems to have worked.

Moving on, did Putin explain to the West that Donbass Chabadniks dominated the politics of Ukraine for most of this period? That oligarch Kholomoisky (now in Israel) created Zelensky as a piece of media agitprop and then got him elected using his extensive wealth, his mercenary Azov battalion and his control of the SBU at the time? No, of course not.

But I wrote a piece explaining which oligarch mafias ran which part of Ukraine several years ago:

Moving on, did Putin talk about the marrooned pro-Russians in Ukraine? No? Why not? What is the fate of these people? Isn’t this war being waged in their name?

I have:

In fact, a story came out a week ago about the fate of suspected pro-Russians being tortured in special SBU dungeons in Ukraine. Here:

Journalists from the British newspaper The Guardian published (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/feb/02/jailed-as-collaborators-the-stories-of-ukrainians-who-ended-up-in-prison) a report from Ukrainian prisons in which there are Ukrainian citizens convicted on charges of collaboration with the Russian Federation.

“The SBU reports that it has opened more than 8,100 criminal proceedings “related to cooperation and aiding the aggressor state,” and Ukrainians convicted under these articles are held only in certain prisons, where they are kept separately from other prisoners,” the publication says .

At the same time, the publication published a photo of a man sentenced to 12 years in prison, who was attacked by his cellmates: they tattooed the word “Orc” on his forehead.

The Guardian tells the story of 30-year-old Anna Golomb, who is in prison with her two-year-old child. She and her husband were arrested by the SBU in December 2022 in Chasovy Yar, Donetsk region, after finding screenshots of maps where the positions of Ukrainian forces were marked, sent via Telegram to a Russian number. At the same time, according to Anna, she knew nothing about these cards.

“Konstantin Vanin, a 34-year-old teacher from Slavyansk, was detained while driving near the front line. He said life on the other side was “more peaceful and stable” but said he had not shared any information about Ukrainian army positions. According to him, he admitted guilt under pressure,” says The Guardian.

Also given is the story of 47-year-old Oksana Kuzmich from the Kherson region, who found herself in Russian-controlled territory and helped hold a “referendum” because she had no money.

“Some, however, were open and unapologetic supporters of Russia. “My parents raised me to fight fascism, and here is fascism,” said 57-year-old Yuri Tsybulsky from Bakhmut, sentenced to 13 years in prison,” the publication writes.

The report says that most of the prisoners with whom the journalists spoke wrote an application for an exchange in order to get to the Russian Federation, but there has been no response from Moscow yet.

Let us recall that after the start of the SVO, the Kyiv authorities subjected to repression many representatives of the pro-Russian intelligentsia, prominent writers, journalists, and social activists. This topic remains a priority for us (https://t.me/russmir09/252). Let us repeat, publicity is very important in this matter; it is necessary to talk a lot and loudly about the repressed and their fate, to knock on all doors.

B L E A K.

But did Putin mention these people and their fates? Has he ever mentioned what Russia is doing for these people that they are supposedly fighting a Not-War for? Sure, they’ve passed a lot of speech regulations making it harder to criticize God’s Chosen and invader-migrants for the native Russians and this is commendable, of course. In a way, Putin is simply “denazifying” Russia by making sure that there are less “Nazis” in Russia i.e., less Slavs, just like he is doing in Donbass, by the way.

And why did Russia not do anything to support pro-Russians in Ukraine over these last 30 years? Instead, they silently watched or even helped the Kievan authorities hunt down and arrest all pro-Russians:

Do you see how someone who listened to Putin and actually took him seriously would walk away from the interview actually less informed?

Anyway, I hope I made my point.

There is also a new ZAnon talking point out now — that those who thought the interview was lame are actually too dumb, essentially, to appreciate the finer points of the history of the Holocaust and Stepan Bandera that Putin went to great lengths to explain instead of explaining what his actual goals were in Ukraine.

I commented on this psyop here on Substack Notes:

I think I’ve said all I’m going to say about that ridiculous interview.

Even Tucker himself seemed disappointed afterwards.

You get used to feeling disappointment when it comes to Putin, let me tell you.

The final verdict on this roach of a man is that he isn’t fighting a war to save Russians.

He is actually throwing a tantrum to get back in the good graces of his friends in the West.

Us peasants are just expendable pawns or worse, “Nazis” in his masterful 5D tic-tac-toe game.
