About that "politician", Andrij Shariy whom you are citing as some kind of a credible figure, if not a martyr of sorts -- from WP:
In a 2010 article, "Blue Rust. Dictatorship of Sodomites"[4] Shariy expressed an opinion that due to death sentences for same-sex and adultery relationships in Iran after the Islamic revolution the situation with prostitution, pedophilia, and rape in Iran was much better than in Ukraine.”[79]: 46–47, 57 [81] In the summer of 2020, journalist Sergei Ivanov posted screenshots of Anatoly Shariy's publications from 2010 in which he showed understanding for the extermination of homosexuals and Roma in gas chambers during the Third Reich.[82][83]
No credible information has emerged about the alleged attempts on his life. However he is under investigation by the SBU for inciting nationalist hatred. In 2021 Shariy apologized "for his past from 11 years ago" and claimed his views had been changed since then.[84]
"And about gays. I am a simple guy from Karavaevka. My childhood passed in the Soviet Union. I have never seen those "gays" ...I was certain that they would attack me with obscene offers... but I must say that I have never had a problem with a gay person in my life."What matters here is that you seem to happy to hold him up a credible, interesting useful and inspiring source of information.
You couldn't disprove the fact that ...
I don't dispute any of it. There's no need to because it's simply not relevant to the current situation.
Just like your comments to this thread.
It was yet another "Bandera, Bandera" thread.
So nothing emerging from it would have relevance to anything.
As you knew when you started it.
It's just such an obviously insipid and vacuous comparison. It's difficult to see why you went down this track, other than as an excuse to thrown down more of your favorite scare imagery and talking points.
I love how you are skirting the topic of the ideology of post-2014 Ukraine.
But "Ukraine" as a country does not. And none of this stupidity is any way relevant to the current (very much Nazi-like) invasion by Russia that you are continually apologizing for. Whose true causes you know perfectly well, and are continually attempting to distract attention away from with finger-pointing tactics such as these.
That is the cardinal error you are making here.
See, you are at it again.
These certain people include Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, as you could see in the comment you couldn't pass by but clearly hadn't bothered to read.
Also the mayors of Ukrainian cities who approve naming streets after "heroes" of OUN. This includes Stepan Bandera Avenue in the center of the Ukrainian capital [0].
Then try writing letters to them, perhaps? I'm sure they'll be happy to hear from you.
It's comical to see how your russophobia doesn't allow you to acknowledge objective reality.
The idea that any of these stupid monuments have anything to do with the actual reasons the 2014/2022 invasions were launched.
Or that Putin actually cares about Nazis. Or that you actually care.
Or that any of this stuff has any relevance as a topic, next to the reality of the current war itself.
It's all just dumb propaganda.
Oh, I do care a lot. My grandmother survived the blockade of Leningrad, and another relative survived in a Nazi concentration camp.
