WOW. History Dr. Timothy Snyder just completely debunked and embarrassed Marjorie Taylor Greene after she kept pushing the narrative of Nazis in Ukraine. “On the question of Nazis, I’ve written two books as a historian about Nazis and the holocaust. On the question of Ukrainian nationalism, I am the leading scholar of that subject in North America. I’ve been writing about it for 20 years. "If the chamber is interested in the degree of far right participation in Ukrainian politics, you can be assured that no far right party has every surpassed 3% in a Ukrainian election. So of course there are bad people in any country but by any comparative standard, it’s a very small phenomenon. "In Russia, on the other hand, the army includes openly Nazi formations… The government, itself, is fascist in character, and is carrying out a war that includes the deportation of children by the 10s of thousands, the open intention of destroying a state, as well as mass torture. "So if we’re looking for fascism, and if there is anyone who is sincerely concerned about halting fascism or racism, you’d look to halt Russia."
@EdKrassen So a historian defines the socialist party as far right? I immediately disregarded his opinion after that rubbish. I don’t think either American political party are Nazis, although we may view each other as such
@Travis_in_Flint @EdKrassen To be clear, are you trying to argue that the Nazis were socialist because it was in the name?
@DavidRF34 @Travis_in_Flint @EdKrassen He probably also believes North Korea is a Democratic Republic
@davenotsomello @DavidRF34 @EdKrassen If you familiar with his many lectures and presentations that are on the internet, you would know that he is much in favor of real democracy
