Ukrainian Nazism
Resources and Links
I will be writing more about this problem - but I wanted to release this compilation of links first. For a good overview of what’s been happening with the US proxy war in Ukraine, I recommend listening to all three episodes of Crawdads and Taters on the war:
Ukraine Part 1 - A US-Proxy for the New Cold War Era
Ukraine Part 2 - From Maidan to Russiagate: Manufacturing Consent for World War III
Ukraine Part 3- Biden’s Armageddon and the Costs of Forever Wars
Ukrainian Nazis in the western media - pre 2022
Thanks to whoever made this meme, I have included the headlines from it as well as others. This is an incomplete list, it includes Salon, The Guardian, the BBC, Time, Politico, the New York Times, Newsweek, Bellingcat, Reuters, and others. Even NATO mouthpieces Radio Free Europe and The Atlantic Council have covered Nazism in Ukraine.

Videos
The coverage was not limited to print - here are several video segments.
Post February Coverage
After February, suddenly they changed their tune. Here are a few links, but essentially every story post February has progressively glossed over and ignored the Nazi problem.

And here’s how the BBC changed their video coverage:
