Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I have barely been able to find anything out about the guy besides the fact that he led an anti-immigrant hate march in 2006 and has apparently "moved away from right wing politics in recent years to become a prominent critic of Putin, while declining to renounce his previous political affiliations" real milquetoast reporting all round.

Just another Nazi supported by the West.

Western media whitewashed him super hard after they hallowed him as "opposition leader" and "Putin's real opponent" while in reality he was not only always irrelevant but was an open neonazi of the kind even most western regimes pack into jail or kick out just in case. Or used to pack before Ukraine war made everyting up to 99% Hitler acceptable.

heh Canada was just giving a standing ovation to a Nazi SS soldier before the scandal was overshadowed by October 7th Hamas attack on the settlers.

More of aterritory i think.

moved away from right wing politics in recent years [...] while declining to renounce his previous political affiliations

What a weird way of saying that he hasn't moved away from fascism.
