The deleted comment said : "Hilariously ironic that Ukrainian soldier can be seen with the totenkopf on their uniforms.

I can’t comment anymore, and I think I might have been shadow banned …

      Ho I surely don’t go there for that, in fact am most often expecting downvotes and BS replies and pleasantly surprised when I actually get upvoted. Surprised the moderation has started to delete my comments that have absolutely nothing even close to breaking their rules in them, it wasn’t like that before, it used to be relatively open on this level, as long as you’re ready to get downvoted ofc … Maybe that’s why they take action now, as long as it was downvoted it wasn’t a problem …

    It enrages me because I have been doing propaganda for communism in general for years in this website, and it has been going better and better, I swear comrades, comments that were positive about very “taboo” themes like Stalin and north Korea were being upvotes lately!

    I’ve always respected the rules of the website, and now it seems they banned me, for some mere observation that goes against their narrative…

    It’s just so tiresome. The narrative is falling apart but the powers that be still have so much control that they can’t allow us to openly talk about the nazis.

      It’s a skull insignia beloved by Nazis and itself a reference to the SS.

      Basically… it sure does seem to be difficult for Western media sources to get interviews with Ukrainian soldiers that don’t have some kind of Nazi patch on their clothes. Sonnenrad, Wolfsangel, Totenkopf. The ubiquitous vertical black-red (blood and soil) flag and other OUN-B (Bandyerite, Naxi collaborators, mass murderers, and fascists in their own right) symbols.
