Checkmate.
EDIT: Was it removed for exposing the false narrrative? Or maybe I don't understand lemmy. Either way:
https://forward.com/opinion/552958/why-did-stanford-host-azov-neo-nazis/
It might have been removed for the famous "whataboutism" the right likes talking about so much.
You don't need to be pro-Russia to be anti-Nazi.
"Wait, why am I surrounded by nazis?" - A liberal, probably.
Thanks for the link. I thought I remembered that there was something off about the Azov battalion. I find it interesting that the OP's article didn't mention the groups Neo-Nazism at all. Don't get me wrong, I support Ukraine in the war, but ignoring stuff like this also poses a risk.
The individuals in question are not Neo-Nazis
