Socialism brought these peoples to sapience and in return they purged communists and doubled down on fascist apologism to become the Honorary Aryan; apparently the genocidal-against-slavs-Nazis were to be emulated.
Meanwhile: some of the largest emigration per capita the world has ever seen, sex trade and organised crime runs rampant, awful inequality and ongoing cultural rot.
Seriously, though, I really do not understand this Slavic neo-nazi phenomenon. It’s like an African-American man joining the KKK.
It’s unfortunately common the world over whatever ethnicity; as Paolo Friere says in his Pedagogy of the Oppressed the oppressed sees their model of manhood in the oppressor, and I would say not without reason - the material always comes before the idea and there is a long history of climbing the politoeconomic social ladder by glomming on to western supremacism where material benefits have been gained at the expense of the “other”.
That makes sense, unfortunately. Most people are not deep thinkers – nor should they be – and explaining to the oppressed a world beyond imperialism is like explaining the real world to the shadow-watchers in Plato’s cave.
Somebody I don’t otherwise admire said that the what makes communists different from philosophers is this: while the philosopher returns to the cave to tell people about the ideal world of forms he saw, the communist returns to the cave to smash the puppets casting the shadows, beat down the puppeteers, and drag people kicking and screaming into the sunlight.

But have you considered that the sex trade is BASED and REDPILLED, and the mafia is MACHO and AWESOME?

The only true sublimation is through socialism
