It makes me laugh too when the Russian nationalist imperial-nostalgics venerate these arch-antisemite inbreds, because the heads of the royal family hadn't even been ethnically Russian for ages
they were as Russian as Elizabeth Warren is Native American. Weren't even slavs, mfs were like Danish and German and British; all inbred royals from the same few families. Just look at these wall-eyed fucks
Edit: any time you want to troll a Russian imperial-nostalgic nationalist who says "Stalin wasn't even Russian he was Georgian!" Call Nikolai II a mere Germanized Dane. Lenin was more Russian than the Romanovs since like the 1700s. Note: This only works for the screeching blood-and-soil type nationalists; the civic nationalists don't care as much, but then they can't whine about Stalin being Georgian either.
Russian (and other Eastern European) nationalists are overwhelmingly turbo-bootlickers toward Western Europeans, so they usually think that tsars being German/Danish/British is good.
^pathetic^
tho tbh I feel like they're mad confused about even that due to recent events and the narrative understanding built out of the continuity of French invading, Crimean war, WWI, the interventionists in the civil war, then Germans and allies invading again with the nazi genocide campaign, then the CIA proxy gladio campaigns, and now all this proxy war, as just being a constant western aggressions and invasions. It's made a lot of them (the Russian nationalists) even more incoherent and disoriented. Which I take great glee in. I think this wasteland for their orientation-of-pride is where Dugin's stupidity sprouted from.
Russia (and in ways other post-Soviets) really demonstrate how lost and unhinged the masses become without communism and materialist understanding of international worker solidarity. They rally around any damned foolish thing, even multiple mutually-contradictory things at once as if it were a unity. It's true everywhere, but because of the Soviet Union you can actually have the A->B->A comparisons
