Mihail Pojarsky/About nazi salut

How many years has this been going on: “You are fascists!”, “No, you!”, “Your Azov regiment are do nazi salute!”, “And you have Rusich unit” In connection with recent events, a new iteration of such conversations has begun. Vigilant citizens are wondering: they say, why are those guys who are now sensational drawing some kind of crosses on their technique? Yes, and the stripes they have there are something very suspicious, a little bit like a nazi salute... Oh, really!

It seems that the time has come to tell a little about the ridge and the so-called. "right movement" How is it arranged? Are there any real, well-groomed Nazis? Of course there are. But the majority of Hitler from Goering does not distinguish. The right movement is made up of three factors. The first is that there are individuals in the population who tend to avoid risk, and there are those who tend to seek it. And among the latter there are those who lack extreme sports (including boxing with MMA) and industrial mountaineering.They want more thrills. For example, football hooliganism. There, a bottle can fly in the forehead, and they can dance on the head. No referee, only honest months in the hospital. Do you feel the passion boil in your blood? And they feel. But even near-football softens, coming to formulas like "equal composition without shit." This also does not suit everyone. Give them fa-antifa street wars, even more extreme. There, they can poke a knife in the belly, and shoot in the eye from a trauma. Excitement. The second motivation is a yearning for tribal male brotherhood. So that Vasya's strong shoulder is on the right, and Petya's strong shoulder is on the left. So that I tear everyone for the boys, and the boys - for me. But without any homosexuality. In the modern world of "male corporations" you can't find them in the daytime with fire, but here they are.

But how does this desire for extreme sports and a strong male shoulder acquire ideology? At what stage does the nazi salute appear? Well, look, you are all risky and united, what to do next? Of course, to oppose yourself to everyone else. And what is the easiest way to oppose yourself to society? Of course, spitting on what it considers sacred to itself. And what is this? Multiculturalism in Europe is a cult, fascism is the main scarecrow. In the Russian Federation, everything is even cooler: we have solid grandfathers, parades and other eternal 45th year here. In such conditions, zigging means opposing oneself to everyone around. That is, the ridge is more about the counterculture, like the songs of the Sex Pistols in the 70s. Most of the "right" Hitler from Goering can not be distinguished because Nazism is not an ideology for them. And a sort of way to shock my mother, neighbors and the district police officer.

Now to the most important thing: in a normal situation, this subculture exists in parallel with normal life. No normal person knows in which epic battle the horses drove the pigs or vice versa (horses and pigs are slang names for fans of various Russian football teams). Sometimes they hear something about the Fa-antifa wars - there are some murders. But in general, all this is a different reality, marginal. However, what happens when the war starts? Especially one where the army is not in the tooth with a foot, and are urgently needed voluntary? Who is the first to volunteer? That's right, these same guys are coming, and on both sides of the conflict. Only now they are not marginalized. Now these are no longer fights near the padik, but real fighting, followed by the whole world. At the same time, the guys, of course, bring all their favorite toys with them. Tattoos, patches and more. "Oh, lads, they gave us a real tank! Let's draw on him a cross! No, not this one, it's too pale, let's have another one, simpler." And now the whole world is watching and wondering: is this a nazi salute or, well, I don’t know, Zeus’s lightning? Yes, this is a nazi salute.

Just so what? Real fascism exists. Only you need to look for it not in patches, but in high offices.
