How Violent Neo-Nazis Resurfaced in Wartime Russia
How Violent Neo-Nazis Resurfaced in Wartime Russia
The war in Ukraine has given new prominence to Russia’s neo-Nazis, as official media echo their xenophobic claims. No longer afraid of repression, such groups circulate videos of spectacular street violence among hundreds of thousands of followers.jacobin.com
It's worth noting that fascist organizations existed in much of Europe (and more) before WWII, and many are capable of selectively choosing the parts of Nazism they liked while ignoring the parts where Nazis called their countrymen subhuman.
When liberalism fails and the worker class turns to socialism, the privileges of the upper- and middle- bourgeoisie (the upper classes in terms of economic relations, rather than in terms of wealth) are threatened and so in reaction they either form or fund fascist movements to replace liberalism without losing capitalism. The rise of squadrismo in post-WWI Italy is a useful case study.

in reply to mr_MADAFAKA • • •I'm waiting for a 2TB drive to arrive to upgrade the 512GB in my Legion Go and one of the first things I wanted to do was set up to dual boot Bazzite.
These little blurbs make me want to just blow away Windows right now though and go all in on Bazzite. Especially as I play literally zero "popular multiplayer shooting games".

in reply to mr_MADAFAKA • • •I won't consider these new devices because they don't have touch pads, but if inwas gifted one or had a friend that had one I would definitely recommend Bazzite if they don't play many multiplayer titles.
Great to see it taking off.

in reply to foggenbooty • • •I've not tried to use it in games, but given the "scroll, lift, reset... scroll, lift, reset" x50 it takes to get across the Windows desktop, I would agree.
It does have "FPS mode", which basically turns the right controller into a vertical mouse. I haven't used that for basically anything either, but I've read rave reviews from some FPS players!
