    Don’t tell them that the Russian army has had women fighting for it in their Great Patriotic War.

    Or do tell them I guess.

      Well that’s a “woke” commie country to them.

      Because it was the Soviet Union.

        But they do model their whole national self-image as the people “who defeated the Nazis”.

        I guess nobody said fascists needed to be consistent.

          Fascism is eternal cognitive dissonance.

          “The enemy is strong and they can easily destroy our entire civilization, but we are stronger than their puny global cabal” is the basis of all of their rhetoric.
