I’m not on Twitter, so I get my news elsewhere, but most of the actual pictures I see are from here. So is there some kind of bias where only the fascist imagery gets posted here in the the dunk tank? Or do the libs scrolling through Ukrainian posts on Twitter literally see and ignore fascist imagery on every single post? Like, if they see 1000 Ukrainian soldiers, will they see 1000 fascist symbols?

Read my reply many of those patches share an eagle as symbolism but last I checked the Ukrainian trident wasn’t nazi.

If eagles are nazi symbols then I must have gotten some of those bad textbooks in school.

who do you think you're fooling? we all know where this symbol comes from. we all know what it means

It's hilarious how they just swap the swastika for a trident and liberals say "this isn't Nazi!"

Imagine deliberately playing naïve to run defence for Nazis because it suits US geopolitical interests. Next you'll tell us about how these soldiers are just wearing a Buddhist peace symbol.

The symbol was famously used by the guys who were literally out just massacring Jews and Poles.

So, yes, the Ukrainian nationalist trident is a fascist symbol.

Different symbol look at the coat of arms for the Ukrainian trident.

OK what do these definitely non Nazi but totally exactly Nazi symbols symbolize?
