Chrystia Freeland, a Nazi’s granddaughter, confirmed Russophobe?

This movie isn't even praising the Russian army, it was screened without the permission of the Russian government. Goes to show that even acknowledging their humanity is a bridge too far for the fascists. Submission is all they will accept.

The film's Russian-Canadian director, Anastasia Trofimova, has said the documentary is not propaganda and was filmed without the permission of the Russian government, putting her at risk.

Chrystia Freeland making this a bigger deal than it should be is putting this woman at risk, but she’s Russian so I guess it’s fine if something bad happened to her. (Sarcasm, if it wasn’t obvious). I’m almost certain Ukrainian war movies were being screened here and not a goddamn peep from Freeland, she’s really been showing her ass…

She's pretty cocky despite the fact that her party is certainly screwed next year. Probably planning on merging with the fascists or something. It seems to be going around as of late.

Considering their coalition wth the NDP fell apart I wouldn't be surprised either but I also don’t expect the Cons to play nice since they are so hostile to the Liberals despite being on the same team, but that hatred is purely culture war related.

Yeah all that "hatred" is just wrestling kafabe. I used to watch parliamentary proceedings live for a while and they laugh and clown around with each other lol same as congress. They have the same donor class and fundamentally the same interests, and most importantly, they have the same masters in the form of the US. I dare the NDP to call me begging for a vote so I can ask them what all of their chickenshit bargaining with capitalists has brought me. Am I to believe they can't even get me dental but they can deliver to me some kind of revolution?

I don't think they'll even have the opportunity to merge with the (more explicit- they're all fascist) fascists, the Liberal (aptly named) party is probably going to crash and burn. The Cons will probably have a majority government.

Not that it'll change anything signficiant, she's no doubt going to keep living a cushy, Nazi-loving lifestyle, and all three major parties here are only marginally different in anything other than social policy, with little to no difference in foreign policy/being the lapdogs of AmeriKKKa. Electoralism is a farce.

Oh my god, she actually said out loud that the Nazi Ukrainians (who were not the majority, of course) were the better and “true” Ukrainians… wow. She’s worse than I initially thought. Evil, even.

Of course she's a russophobe.

Scott Ritter wrote about her two years ago and I always think back to his response to a comment from a concerned listener:

Monica, you are correct. I should not have mumbled anything that linked Chrystia Freeland, Canada’s Deputy Prime Minister, to Nazi ideology or the odious Ukrainian ultra-nationalist, neo-Nazi, white supremacist military movement, the Azov Regiment. For that I apologize.

I should have shouted it out loud at the top of my voice.
