I'm sorry but despite your best efforts I could only get to the piece where this Dröppel guy (or whatever his name was) rants about how anti-jewish sentiment of the 1870s was due to national socialism (funny how they always neglect to use the full name, isn't it?) - it's like blaming Wagner for the Holocaust or other such silliness.
(To be clear, it is not your writing that my mind revolts against, but the material as presented.)
To what extent the Azov batallion is actual national socialists I have no idea, but I'm well versed enough in semiotics to recognise their emblems. However, go look at virtually any nation, with a european heritage and the emblems and symbols used by police or military. Faces galore, eagles, skulls, lightning bolts, religious or occult motifs, and so on. The symbol for the swedish police is a blue shield with the three golden crowns, over a crossed pair of fasces for instance. That does not make the police into italian-style fascists.
I'd say the Azov-batallion are definitevely nationalist of the old school variety, and that they purposefully uses such emblems as in the picture both for the usual practice of unity and shared beliefs, but also as a "no way back"-mechanism, since no westerner is unaware of the stigma connected to anything Godwin-able, so to say.
Not picking a side, just raising a cautionay finger that the road has two ditches and it doesn't help anyone if we slip into one instead of the other, if you see what I mean.
And yes, the hypocrisy of media, academics and "experts" sure rankles. I much prefer the honesty of groups such as the Moslem Brotherhood, Hizbollah, or Al-Fatah - they come right out and say exactly what they think and believe and what their goal is. An honest enemy is worth more than a duplicitous friend after all.
Ha, I somehow almost 'expected' something like that--your opening paragraph. I refrained from re-posting the entire interview with that 'medical historian', for it's mind-bogglingly idiotic. I don't know why this kind of stupidity is paraded around by these people as if it's something to be proud of, but then again, what do I know?
Your point about these symbols being, well, all around us is well-taken; I'd simply add that the Avoz people certainly elected these symbols. If they did't know about their history (which I doubt), it's just stupid; I suspect that they have ulterior motives, and the esp. West-Ukrainian areas are the likely region of origin for these.
I don't know nearly enough about the Azov unit, but I do see a lot of BS in the Western legacy media, hence the posting. (Also, your point about the two sides of the road is well-taken, too.)
Oh they absolutely chose the symbols consciously, there can be no doubt about that, or the symbols would either be simple crude pcitograms or dadaistic - I just think they chose them morefor association of strength, ruthlessness, determination, and such things more than actual national socialism as conscious and thought-out ideology.
I mean, what are their thoughts on pensions for senior citizens, communal taxfunded kindergartens, labour unions, a hypothetical Bund Ukrainian Mädel, and so on? Non-existant I should think, meaning that their actual nazism is more akin to a tin pot with a stone in it, tossed about by a kid: lots of noise but very little substance.
And given the wealth of material re: symbols/symbolism, semiotics, emblems, sphragistics and so on and how there is a limited amount of possibe combinations and geometric shapes which are pleasing to the eye and convey meaning and intent - I can baely read online news sometimes.
I might have mentioned it before, that there is to this dy a very real campaign from the usual idiots to ban an ice cream called 'the 88'. Because that's neo-nazi code, according to these somali, senegalese and swedish morons - no it's not, and it isn't a reference to the flak-cannon either...
I know, if you'd want to find 'Nazis' anywhere, you'll see them everywhere.
You already went so far beyond my puny attempts uncover the propaganda by pointing out, in your second paragraph, what the problem is: does anyone else, by the way, have a vision for the future? I'd argue that the super-rich transhumanism advocates have a vision, but is there anyone else who does?
I generally look to the past for visions of the future. After all, we are living in their future, so their visions of our present are very good tools for the prospective augur, sothsayer, carnifex or futurologist.
Exactly the way I see it, even though I do admit that, quite often these days, these past glimpses of the future (our present, or something like this), are quite…appalling: 1984, Brave New World, etc.
Nothing new under the sun. I have been working on extreme themes. Like, how is it the Jews in Israel excitedly accepted so many experimental injections even though their ancestors were similarly but forcibly experimented on during the so-called Nazi era? I'll tell you what I think, The fascists are better at the magic now versus then (magic is the ability to control thoughts using words) having people volunteer over forcing them.
The Nazi's were/are simply a political tool of the fascists, the actual people who are behind these experiments, this work is still ongoing, the fascists still exist. Same old magic mind-numbing symbols from the same old fascists. The USA is also full of these fascist experimenter types having imported the sinister craftiness of GERMANY with Operation Paperclip. To think, while the doctors who administered the injections in Germany after WW2 ended, were severely punished, the fascists that produced these concoctions lived on.
Here is a video I just watched found linked in another Substack publish, basically it describes how the science of this is actually a religion to those practicing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPeyJvXU68k
I'll watch it, alright, and I'll post my impressions later, o.k.?
As the tools, well, that's a bunch of well-established facts, so: I think that those Phascists of today are really well-spoken etc., and their ability to control many minds is impressive (but, since I'd suppose, that neither of us counts themselves among them, it's also a rather dangerous achievement, to say the least).
Re the Israel 'conundrum': it's one of the more strange twists in this entire shitshow, that's for sure. Why they do it--I don't know, perhaps a mistaken, if not foolish, sense of their own superiority?
Don't forget, age-old questions of acculturation and/or assimilation vs. staying 'true' to the faith of the ancestors have now been answered: Judaism is a 'nation', as per Bibi Netanyahu's legislation (I know, just because 'the law says so doesn't mean, or even approximate, 'truth'), which by definition renders the state of Israel one of many others: nothing special, so to say.
It also means no more special perks for Israel, I'd argue, for not even they can make an omelette without breaking the eggs.
And you accept my hypothesis, we should welcome Israel to the Hobbesian struggle for existence, and they've played their cards early on. We shall find out if they also played it wisely, as well as whether or not it was, actually, a 'good hand' to begin with (and this pathetic statement also applies to every other 'western' country).
"Danke für all Eure Genesungswünsche, dank Booster Impfungen sind wir glimpflich durchgekommen und mittlerweile auch wieder negativ. Jetzt gehe ich zwei- oder dreimal am Tag zum Biomüll - einfach nur, weil ich‘s kann."
As a German, I appreciate very German things such as Biomüll.
Azov guys take their legacy from Ukrainians troops that joined the Nazis in the WWII.
So it's pretty clear that someone in Germany has to hide that connection to the masses or their squalid propaganda and real neo nazi plans is not as convincing as before
What I find so disgusting about it (other than, you know, the Nazi parts) is that, e.g., this medical historian guy constantly prepares excuses while the legacy press just makes really crude and bad agit-prop. No more standards, to say nothing about ethics and decency--but lots of virtue-signalling.

How about I just want to be natural?

Yes. I think so. You are good at exposing these words.
You are very kind, thank you dearly, my friend.
Re the Israel 'conundrum': it's one of the more strange twists in this entire shitshow, that's for sure. Why they do it--I don't know, perhaps a mistaken, if not foolish, sense of their own superiority?
Pride cometh begore the fall I've read somewhere.
Something like this.
Don't forget, age-old questions of acculturation and/or assimilation vs. staying 'true' to the faith of the ancestors have now been answered: Judaism is a 'nation', as per Bibi Netanyahu's legislation (I know, just because 'the law says so doesn't mean, or even approximate, 'truth'), which by definition renders the state of Israel one of many others: nothing special, so to say.

Interesting idea, I'll think about what its like for others to join the struggle. More than just Is-real.
Mr. Thießen, according to his Twitter account, just recovered from Covid. Of course, mildness is being attributed to the boooooster:

Haha, his guano island is a true gold mine. What a moron.
Interesting findings.

Yep.

DOUBLE PLUS UNGOOD!
And then some. It does feel really absurd, and I say that as someone who grew up in neighbouring Austria…
