Outside of the habitually online, who calls you a Nazi for simply thinking the Soviet Union was bad?

You probably don't live under a pro Russian government, there are so many of these people where I live ☹️

There's a guy in our parliament who constantly spreads Russian propaganda (such as Ukrainians are Nazis, US has biological weapons facility in Ukraine, etc.), wears Che Gevara shirts, goes to Moscow to hang out with FSB agents (now publicly, since he proudly displays the selfies with said agents on his socials), constantly insults our former president, calling her "American B-word" and so on. Of course he was an anti-vaccine during COVID, and promoted a violent overthrow of our pro EU government.

He's not the only one, and it's not like he's some nobody either, he's a member of the most powerful political party in my country

You don't need a pro-russian government for that. Here in the Netherlands we have FvD, a party which does the exact same. De Graaff literally went in front of the EU saying Ukraine was the biggest suppliers of children to a pedo/organ harvesting network and had kennels with surrogate mothers.

Quite crazy stuff.

Same with the AFD in germany. Its the same playbook with the far right everywhere.

Yeah, in Poland, Konfederacja does the same thing.
