    Being a Nazi in Ukraine today does not mean the same as being a Nazi in Germany during WW II. The context changes, so the sworn enemy of the supremacist also changes. Yesterday they hated the Jews, but now they hate Muslims, Russians, other inferior Asiatic people and the like. It’s no surprise today how they call Russian people “orcs”, and cling to their European ideal.

    Today, for example, there’s a very famous Jewish supremacist state (which is also a close ally of Ukraine, including the Azov Battalion) which has a habit of starving Palestinian people to death, bombing hospitals and schools, sniping little children and the like.

    Fascism, Nazism, Zionism, Ukrainian neo-nazism etc, may have different forms today and then, but the supremacist speech, where there’s a superior culture or ethnicity and a dehumanized enemy is very much present in this day and age.
