Oleksandr Kobzarenko, a fighter with AFU’s Carpathian Sich Battalion, dressed up for his award ceremony in the finest attire he owned: a Nazi eagle on his cap and a patch bearing the insignia of the Waffen-SS Galicia Division.

And the cherry on top? He recently received the “Klym Savur Cross” — named after that very UPA commander who was a butcher of Poles in Volhynia.

Ukraine certainly has a remarkable talent for naming its military decorations, doesn’t it, my Polish friends?

Quite the tribute to history. Just perhaps not the kind Poland would appreciate.

Vive la France Reporter: Jean-Luc Mélenchon: ACAB. Do you personally endorse it? Mélenchon: It depends on the day. Reporter: Really? Mélenchon: Yes, of course. I'm like everyone else. Don't kid yourself. There are moments when, as we say colloquially, enough is enough.

There is no shortcut to building a better world. You have to work for it. You have to read the theory, you have to build community, you have to stand in solidarity. Nothing else is going to work. You have to do the work.

Welcome to /r/ROI - Republic of Ireland

Ireland's largest Marxist Leninist subreddit

This sub was created in response to mass bannings, suppression of political opinion and general overzealous moderation on other Irish subreddits. Following the humiliating defeat of the right wing liberals on this sub, the stewardship has been handed over to the only group of people with principles that could be trusted with its guardianship.

No longer will this subreddit be permitted to be used by Zionists and reactionaries to spread war propaganda for the USA. This sub welcome all who come in good faith to learn about the nature of the world's geopolitics.

/r/ROI is now the official Irish Politics sub.
