am honestly surprised it took this long, I had just assumed he was already disappeared after they banned the communist party from existing.
From having up to 25% of the vote in some oblasts and 115.000 members to being banned, having their symbols forbidden and their leaders arrested, in the span of just 3 years. What happened to the KPU was a tragedy.
Yet another example why western style “democracy” is actually just fascism with extra steps.
Watch every “free speech” advocate, online and offline both, be either completely mute on this, or wholeheartedly support it for a variety of bullshit reasons. I can already predict some: “He was a Russian asset”, “commies are ebil muh horodomoru”, “they are being invaded and need security”, “oh yeah well putin personally murders dissidents with a machine gun”.
Poor guy. He’s likely screwed
Amazing how free speech advocates will defend nazis all day, but won’t say a single word to defend communists. Very telling.
That’s because communists are Asian and thus not people
Not that related, but my favourite quote to date is:
the offspring would be quite smart (European)
Rules for Me, Not for Thee.
“Ukrainian democracy” for you folks
But we gotta support Ukraine because it is on the frontline of the
fascistfree world!1!1!1! /sDidn’t the previous communist leader disappear too? I remember reading a few years ago that he was found missing. Probably dead.
