    He hasn’t been involved with the party for the last 20 years, has been vocally opposed to their values for most of those 20, and nonetheless is still presented as though he’s an active member & nazi by pro-russian media. The information is true, the context in which that information is presented is manipulated to be pro-russian.

        Schindler was a nazi, and yet we praise him - despite having been vocally pro-german before he saw the reality of what his country stood for. People change, shitty people included. Sometimes, they even change for the better.

        Also I’m not white, nor a gringo. It’s pretty sad you have to retreat to racism for your cheap bait.
