What never ceases to amaze me is how every time a good post like this comes up on lemmygrad, there's always a wave of down votes as if the down voters have suddenly forgotten what instance they're on.

Apologies comrade, the image I intended to depict is of the grim reaper with the word "Socialism" on their robes running and smirking while holding a bloody scythe.

Canadian parliament accidentally honours Nazi - with Zelensky and Trudeau applauding - The Independent

The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre said Mr Rota's remarks ignore “the horrific fact that Hunka served in the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS, a Nazi military unit whose crimes against humanity during the Holocaust are well-documented”.

Since his invasion in February 2022, Russian president Vladimir Putin has repeatedly made unsubstantiated claims that Ukraine “harbours neo-Nazis”.

Those are the last two lines.

Tbf I guess in this case it's technically not a neo-Nazi

Reminder that He didn't even join the German army (which would still be very bad). He joined the waffen ss, meaning the literal paramilitary wing of the Nazi party. And as a volunteer, not a conscript.

Some real contenders for the gold medal in mental gymnastics this year, usually the US cinches it. Canada with a very impressive showing though.
