Thanks, uh, I'm not SkyezOpen. Sorry if I interrupted your conversation.

Putin is a capitalist oligarch that should have never led Russia

you can find pictures of Zelensky posing with his own countries soldiers wearing swastikas

So you're saying that on OP's infographic we should be supporting neither Ukraine or Russia? Or should we be slightly to the right on the Russia-Ukraine axis because it's better to support a capitalist oligarch using Nazi rhetoric than not supporting anyone?

I’m not telling anyone who or what to support, I am only explaining the ways I’ve come to understand my own Anti-War position as a leftist and I also love pointing out the lies America has spread

Damn right, fuck war and fuck imperialists.

By the way,

Got a link? My leftist group chat doesn't believe this, and I can't find anything myself that's not obviously doctored.

this is the one that I meant, thank you! AFAIK there’s nothing of Zelenskyy denouncing these types of symbols or atleast acknowledging their anti semitism. There’s no way he doesn’t know either guys, just look at those symbols.

That's for sure their wolfsangel symbol, thanks. Doesn't the photo misidentify the symbol though? The wolfsangel isn't an SS logo afaik, and the blurry insignia looks more like a 44 than SS.

Am I completely blind here? I don't want to look like an idiot by labeling a blurry 44 as an SS symbol.

Each symbol has the little line jutting up on the right. And the top vertical line is slanted while the bottom vertical line is straight. Like this:

if you don’t think it’s very obviously emulating an SS symbol you’re a fucking idiot or you’re acting like you don’t get it on purpose. Stop. It’s 44 and the SS symbol
