Even trying to just FIND articles about this sort of thing, I have to configure search to only look for items prior to invasion
Otherwise I just get items about how it's Russian propaganda (or nothing)
Yeah I have a bookmarked search setting for pre-February 2022 searches because of how rapidly the entire media landscape changed overnight. Have to use a lot of archives and waybackmachines as well, since a lot of it was deleted or edited later. All the "pro-Russian" media also got censored and banned and is just gone now, which includes a lot of leftist smaller independent media. FAIR and Grayzone and Mint Press are all suppressed in google search algos compared to pre-Russiagate hysteria
Would you be willing to share some archived links here? I didn't learn about the Ukraine Nazi problem before the war and it's been a bear trying to find information now
This is not a source, just a second hand anecdote, but at my buddy's wedding (in 2018 or so) his brother (who is a disgusting "war trainer" or some such for the army) said they had a real problem with Ukrainian soldiers stealing the equipment they were training them with to sell to nazi paramilitary groups.
Apparently those dudes would pay top dollar to not fight with old AKs.
