> Details:The National Resistance Center has reported that the Russians are using the pretext of removing "Nazi literature" to explain their actions, while the list of such literature includes all books in Ukrainian. In doing so, the occupiers are repeating the practice typical of Nazi Germany.
Ah, that's the justification. I've never understood the official Russian "denazification" position; it should be clear to them no one now or ever is going to take it seriously, why continue with this absurd pretense?
That said, in this case it's more barbed than the article suggests. As part of denazification, the Allies did destroy books. To suggest book destruction is what typifies Nazis is absurd unless we also call the Allies Nazis.
> As a consequence a list was drawn up of over 30,000 book titles, ranging from school textbooks to poetry, which were then banned. All copies of books on the list were confiscated and destroyed; the possession of a book on the list was made a punishable offense. All the millions of copies of these books were to be confiscated and destroyed.

That said, Aztec culture was full of horrors we can now no longer even imagine, paling even before the Nazis. To the extent the destruction of codices was deliberate, much of what went on would have seemed to be a relatively necessary de-Aztecification.

- lukan 3y agoSorry, but this meta vague mysteries conspiracy claim thing usually does not fly here. Either you have something to say, then say it, or don't.

- lukan 3y agoWell, so far it is not even a conspiracy, as you said nothing except saying you cannot say it. Things very seldom get deleted here btw. but yes they do get flagged (and hidden for most users unless they choose to see it, like me) if many think you are not contributing. So your post is already flagged, you are now free to say it, if you have anything to say about the matter.
- iperboreo 3y ago" if you have anything to say about the matter." Effectively banning Russian language (they cannot, but they do try), tacit license to use violence against people who see themselves as Russians (massacre of Odessa, other cases), the ukranian nationalism which is a direct continuation of that of nazi collaborationists and jew murderers (yes, I know that Zelensky is a jew; so am I). Encouraging killing russians (all russians) on their telegram channels. I could compose here a text with examples etc, but I don't see the point of doing this. I think this post will soon be deleted ("flagged"), the account shadow banned or whatever, and so I would simply waste my time.
- lukan 3y agoSo you are saying the reason for russia to destroy everthing ukraine, is the ukraine trying to destroy everything russian in ukraine, after russia invaded in 2014? Maybe you got cause and effect mixed up here? In either way, I condemn both attempts at attacking different cultures. Still, ukraine did not declare there is basically no russia. And the did not invade russia to exterminate. But russian officials did it with ukraine. Saying they are all russian. And invaded. And are destroying everything ukraine in Ukraine. That is the reason Ukraine tolerates their nazis, as they fight against the threat to all of them. But they surely ain't all Nazis. That is just a weak reason to reestablish a russian empire. And that's the main thing here happening, for some reason Ukraine does not want to be part of your empire anymore and you try to force them. (After russia confirmed their sovereignty in Budapest 1994)
