Tbf Artaxerxes missed blowing airliners out of the sky from their list. Also something the US has done, so if so inclined folk can use that as justification for Putin’s war/rape/murder-fest.

Technically, plenty of Russian plutonium has found its way beyond their borders over the years.
Oof, that’s pretty blunt. And he’s not wrong that the attempt to “demilitarise” has ironically produced an incredibly powerful military, thus fundamentally failing in that objective.
He clearly wants out. Where that goes, who knows? But those aren’t the words of a man positioning for more ammo or backup, which has been the assumption in the past when he has raised problems with the Russian state of play. Those are the words of a man who clearly believes that the mission has failed and it’s time for an exit strategy.

Of course there are people openly far right (including actual nazis) fighting for a regime that's anti-LGBT, misogynist, imperialist, antisemitic, ultra-nationalist, authoritarian, talks about human beings as cockroaches just for being from another country, is carrying out ethnic cleansing, kidnapping children to raise them away from their own culture, etc etc.
Fascists, Fascism and the Invasion.

As strung out and Yossarian pointed out, Task Force Rusich and their commander Alexey Milchakov
Not sure you can get much more openly nazi than that. I'm genuinely a bit surprised you didn't know about him.
Milchakov has openly stated that "Ukrainians must be destroyed so they can't raise children."
"Russian soldiers celebrate birthday of 'friend and comrade' Hitler":

You're clearly not paying attention.

Well done. You remember cat good.
He's announced a withdrawal of Wagner troops from Bakhmut, starting from tomorrow and to be gone by 1st June. Presumably he needs whoever is left in one piece to "guard" those gold and diamond mines in the Central African Republic.
Another for The List.
A soldier wearing Nazi imagery was given a medal by a Russia-backed separatist republic for killing Ukrainian 'nationalists'
The fighter's wore the "Valknot" and "Totenkopf," the first of which is tied to white supremacists and the second to Nazi Germany's SS divisions.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
No, Just polonium. OK it does emit lots more alpha particles but has a MUCH shorter half life. So thats OK.

I was speaking to a Russian student of mine.
She says it's unlikely to happen because there's apparently a decree that should Prigozhin exit Ukraine his head would be on the block for treason which is basically life in jail.
She's not confident it's going to happen.

That's fascinating. I've found some stuff from their conference in Scotland, there is also a plaque in York.
Edit . Actually its Bradford Cathedral and it was unveiled by Stetsko in 1983.

The first speaker on that video is Mikheil Oreshnikov now a new age nazi and one of the founders of the Ukrainian section Misanthropic Division. Familiar pattern, active in Russia with a criminal record and imprisonment and goes from Russia to take part in Maidan and then joins Azov .

I might get "What about [things that don't negate any of what was posted]?"
Beyond angry with Red-Brown BS, just genuinely sad and disappointed that so many on the supposed left buy it. Maybe they believe the Kremlin will bring communist Utopia, or else they just love authoritarianism.
