Remember when Russians were celebrating the Neo Nazis in FSB Alpha Group slicing the ear off the Tajiki ISIS suspect? Well a new viral sensation is spreading across the military, & in the Russian Ultra scene.
a quick 🧵/1
As fSB Alpha cut off the ears, the Russian media had a hard time blurring out FSB Alphas patches of course 2/
The new fad spreading all over Russia, is to have this celebrated moment of torture, permanently added to your body. Now they are all getting tattoos to remember this glorified day
3/
FSB Alpha group, who normally have their patches blurred, as you cant claim to be de-Nazifying, when you have Neo Nazis in your top Special Forces detachments. However we got lucky
4/
Lucky they posted in their personal VK & TG channels without any blurring. Russian Rodnovery (Nazi pagan) is highly prevalent among the military elite & Spetsnaz. Here is the Kolovrat for everyone to see
5/
FSB Alpha Group "Predator" detachment in training. The dual Swastika aka Kolovrat is still used. They blurred the face but forgot the patches.. oops.. But those damn Ukrainian Nazis right? Russian hypocrisy in all its glory
6/
Of course its nothing new, Surkovs Managed Nationalism & laws banned German Nazi symbolism, but Russian Nazi symbolism & faux pagan Rodnover symbols are prevalent in Battalions fighting for Russia
7/
Everyone has heard of Rusich, but they are now expanding to new Rusich battalions like Rusich Grozny
8/
New Russian vigilante groups like Russkiya Obschina (Russian Community) have amassed over 400k followers in 2 years & are now being found on the front lines in Ukraine, along with "Northern Man" (Northern is a Russian dog whistle for Aryan)9/
9/
Russkiya Obschina of course, is famous for walking the streets at night, attacking Muslims & massacring brown skinned people & LGBT (who they call pedophiles). After the terrorist attack, their membership doubled, as did attacks on minorities
10/
RO has "Squads" in every major city in Russia, with rhetoric not seen since the violent Neo Nazi era of the 2000s when the FSB ran the Neo Nazis. RO of course is protected by, & works alongside the Police
11/
There is also new Rodnover squads like Slavic Shield & Slavs Together, Male State, NORD who are all allies of RO & the Russian Military
12/
Of Couse Rodnover squads are nothing new, they have been around since the 90s, with different versions of Rodnovery Paganism. Most branched of from the likes of Valeri Yamelyanov & Alexy Dobrovolsky since the 60s 13/
They were very popular in "Novorossiya" Even the Kolovrat was the official hero of Novorossiya medal, and the revival of the KOB political party (the largest Rodnover party in Russian history)
14/
Of course the practice is now more of a secret society, due to the new laws banning "extremism" The Orthodox Church still has issues with some, as some pagans are anti-Christians while others are dual belief.
15/
The new Military militia movement called RUSOV, which is the Union of Slavs & White supremacists, Rodnover pagans in Russia, Serbia even Poland. RUSOV is gaining popularity in recruiting fighters for the front line, who are fighting for the "Future of the White Race"
16/
Together Russia, Slavic Unity, Slavic Shield & their Northern Man group which was started by famed neo Nazi and Rodnover Mikhail Fedorovich Mavashi, to teach MMA, knife fighting & boxing to "Real Aryan men"
17/
"Russin Nationalist" is another organization that organizes fight clubs & vigilantism, with the main goal of beating up Muslims, Africans & anti immigration, which they blame on Jews & the West. They also support the war & mobilization
18/
There is also Russki Korp, a hate group that is popular with teenagers & young men. Who just had a memorial for the infamous Russian Neo Nazi Tesak, who is having a huge revival since 2022
19/
Northern Man is Slavic Pagan aligned with the ROC
20/
RND is another new Aryan militia formation, gaining popularity
21/
Russian Nationalist & Russki Korp, Skinheads but Pan-Russian. The years of Managed Nationalism has successfully created an all new Russian version of Neo Nazism
22/
No other Managed Nationalism project worked better than the Russian Orthodox Church & Kirills official Praetorian Guards, the Ortho Nazis of the Sorok Sorokov or the SS. Started by ex Neo Nazi leaders from the 90s & 2000s. Bringing new recruitment to the Orthodox Church
23/
There is of course the Neo Nazis of the Espanola Battalion, which successfully recruits the majority from these new movements & organizations. They have now ballooned to 3k members
24/
Espanola Battalion
25/
The old-school Imperial Legion of RIM is still here
26/
But most of all the rise of Russian Imperialism & Monarchists among the younger high school & College age crowd, who are devout Ilyintes. With new political groups like Right Russia, founded by Neo Nazi & Ortho Imperialst George Borokivov
Russian National Union (RNS) a new charter of Ilyinite Imperialists & aligned with Right Russia
28/
29/
There is also Society.Future or OB, an Imperial White, monarchist group & political intellegencia think tank. Who have been found reprinting xenophobic Ortho fascist literature from proto Nazi movements like Black Hundreds started by Neo Nazi Stanislav Salushkin
30/
Society.Future might look harmless but is linked to the extremist book publishers like Russian Club & Hundreds. Republishing the works of Russian Nazi collaborators like Krasnov, Wrangle, Kirill as well as Ilyin & Fyodor Vinberg (the Russian Nazi member behind the Final Solution)
The original Russian Neo Nazis of Russian National Unity (RNU/RNE) who have been planning this war since the 90s have started an all new training facilities. Training up to 500 new members every month. They are back in full recruitment mode online
32/
All this talk about Azov, RNE has been doing this longer & bigger than anyone. But somehow nobody barely mentions them. Russia does a great job closing off any information on their internal movements & traditional Neo Nazi organization. This training facility is significant
33/
There is also Neo Nazi Vladimir Bakin, of RNE, Rusich, who now runs military training camps for children
Who can forget RNE Priest Konstantin Burykikin aka "Father of Swastikas" of the ROC Moscow Patriach. A lowlife scum who was caught stealing money from charities & funds intended for ammunition in the DPR in 2016
35/
Despite what pro russian accounts like to say about defeating Nazism & calling Ukraine a Nazi state. To this day, only one country in the world was violently overthrown by Neo Nazi, that was Russia in Oct of 93, when RNE backed by millions, including ex KGB, took Parliament
36/
I was planning to do a separate thread on this later, but its important to note that RNE overthrew Yeltsin, calling him a Western puppet controlled by the Jews. They wound up partnering with the Communist political party, which would forever be known as the Red-Brown alliance
36/
It was the rare moment in world history a group Neo Nazis had support from ex Military Generals, ex KGB as well as the Russian Orthodox Church. But whattabout Ukraine ammirite?
37/
The Russian Orthodox Church aligning themselves with the Nazi movement has been an issue since the days of Hitler. But here is ROC praying for Neo Nazis killed in the coup 30 years ago, to the ROC praying for the overthrow of Ukraine today
38/
Unfortunately for Russia, its been a hard thing to hide, but Ortho Facsists, Ortho Fundamentalists & Neo Nazism has been a long time problem. However its easier to whitewash a cross than it is a Swastika. But the truth always finds a way, despite Western alt media & Elmo
39/
Its called the Brotherhood Movement, an Ortho supremacist movement that began in the 90s. Popularized by the Union of Orthodox Banner-Bearers, You have seen the shirts I'm sure "Orthodoxy Or Die".
"Heil Christ" aka "Division 83"
40/
There are popular podcasts & Nationalist entertainment making a huge comeback since the war, Reving tales of "Weimar Russia" When Nationalists, Ortho Nazis, Neo Nazi, Imperialists, Rodnovers, Monarchists all marched together. The only difference is today they are mainstreamed
41/
Dugins Eurasianist Youth Union (EYU) who were Strategizing the global anti West movement & the taking of Ukraine for 20 years & is responsible for securing the intellectual side of Neo Eurasinaism, the leaders of EYU even said there is no need for anti-government marches anymore
EYU would partner with Romanian Neo Nazis from Noua Dreapta & worship Nazi fascists like Corneliu Codreanu, the leader of the Romanian Iron Guard, whose cruelty (towards civilians) even the Nazis were amazed. Famous for gutting & hanging Jewish children with their own entrails
43
Codreanu is enormously popular with not only EYU but Russian nationalists in general. The irony they cry "Bandera" when they whitewash psychopaths like him. EYU & Dugin would even do a blood oath with Noua Dreapta at the tomb of Codreanu calling for the extinction of Ukrainians
This 🧵was not focusing on Russian Nationalist battalions that arose in Donbas in 2014, but on the rise of Nationalist rhetoric & dangerous hate speech that has become normalized now under the Putin admin since the war re-ignited in 2022, its evolved to something more sinister
45
Russian fascists of Brotherhood of Academic (BOA) quoted "Hitler is dead & Nazism is dusty". Before you had teenage hooligans with tattoos. Now they wear suits & portray a serious image, but its the still the same hate. Which is more dangerous because you don't see them coming
However you can still see Military Biker gangs like Kolovrat MCC, consisting of ex spetsnaz, reservists, combat veterans & old football hooligans, who have been doing this for decades, & not worried about anti-extremist laws as those are only geared for political opposition.
47
Another new hate group to watch is the "Russian 100s", who use the symbolism of the Nazi Cossacks of Wolves 100s of the Wehrmacht. Not to be mistaken with the Terek Wolves Neo Nazi battalion fighting in Donbas
48/
There was also the case of Neo Nazis from "Storm" which was raided in 2021 after defiling a mannequin with Putins face on it on video. Police claimed they were involved in a shooting in Perm that killed 6. They were a unique group that was pro-war but anti-Putin
49/
Tracking online Russian hate groups there is also a ZOV group, that posts the murder & torture of Ukrainian POWs, calling them "Nazis", while using a Russian Imperial flag helmet Totenkopf. Yeah, very normal
RO, Russian Squad & RNE calling for the attacking of minorities on the streets of Podolsk, by any means possible
"Northern Man" called for the attack of Roma gypsies, after the Roma were found camping in an Orthodox cemetery & having barbeque on Orthodox graves, they damaged headstones & threw garbage in the cemetery, which was enough to call for an Orthodox jihad vs all Roma in Russia
Russkiya Obschina (RO) & Northern Man involved
in militia training. More interesting is the hypocritical "denazifying" patches & tattoos found again
Im adding a few things to the thread that people might have missed. First, many people think Misanthropic Divison was Ukrainian.They were actually Russians, about a dozen did join Azov, but maybe twice as many joined Wagner & their Rusich detachment fighting for Novorossiya
Pictured is Russian Neo Nazi Oksana Nikadimova, a merc of Rusich Battalion, who went on to become a propagandist for Novorossiya News & RIA Novosti. Giving reports on the "Evil Ukrainian Nazis". She was popular in Russia
