Ukrainian fascists supported antisemitism while simultaneously claiming to oppose it. (Apparently.) (lemmygrad.ml)

Quoting Grzegorz Rossolinski’s Stepan Bandera: The Life and Afterlife of a Ukrainian Nationalist, pages 179:

The authors of the booklet [Resolutions of the Second Great Congress of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists] borrowed from Dmytro Dontsov—their main teacher of extreme nationalism, antisemitism, and hatred of Russia—two interrelated antisemitic concepts. The first was that “the Jews in the USSR are the main pillar of the Bolshevik regime, and the avant‐garde of the Moscow imperialism in Ukraine.” The second stated that the OUN “combats Jews as a pillar of the Moscow–Bolshevik regime.” In the same paragraph of the “Resolutions” they denied the violent nature of Ukrainian nationalism and the fact that antisemitism was an integral element of this movement, while blaming the Soviet Union and Russia for the antisemitism in Ukraine and in the OUN: “The Moscow–Bolshevik government exploits the anti‐Jewish sentiments of the Ukrainian masses, in order to divert their attention from the real perpetrator of evil, and in order to channel them, in times of uprising, into pogroms of Jews.”

(Emphasis added.)

Does your head hurt reading this, or is it just me?

No, seriously: is it just me? Am I missing something here? Am I reading this wrong?

Judeobolshevism is an iron staple of fascism ideology in Europe, it frees their deficit brainpower by tying two conspiracy hate theories into one.

That's why they also all (edit, not all of them) love Israel and zionism in general, it allows them to avoid accusations of antisemitism while at the same point peddling literal IIIrd reich antisemite propaganda and at the same time accuse others of antisemitism.

Capitalism in Decay

Fascism is capitalism in decay. As with anticommunism in general, the ruling class has oversimplified this phenomenon to the point of absurdity and teaches but a small fraction of its history. This is the spot for getting a serious understanding of it (from a more proletarian perspective) and collecting the facts that contemporary anticommunists are unlikely to discuss.

Posts should be relevant to either fascism or neofascism, otherwise they belong in [email protected]. If you are unsure if the subject matter is related to either, share it there instead. Off‐topic posts shall be removed.

No capitalist apologia or other anticommunism. No bigotry, including racism, misogyny, ableism, heterosexism, or xenophobia. Be respectful. This is a safe space where all comrades should feel welcome.

For our purposes, we consider early Shōwa Japan to be capitalism in decay.
