    I mean, fascism is explicitly anti-Russian. Russia cares very deeply about fascism, even if the modern state has strong reactionary tendencies in other ways.

      Nazism is explicitly anti-slav. Fascism is just as ghoulish, eugenicist, and horrific, but on paper it isn’t inherently genocidal against Slavs and Jews as Nazism is.

      Is it? I feel like fascism is adaptable to basically any society if given the right conditions. Not to say Russia is fascist (it isn’t) but to say its anti Russian is odd. Especially when again, if they do truely care so much the, why now and not when the coup first happened?
