      Never mind proof, what would the motive for faking something like this, which could be so easily contradicted by the devs and doesn’t seem to further any propaganda aim, be? Is it just more of liberals saying Azov doesn’t even exist or has no prominence and therefore couldn’t get the chance to voice act like this?

        There are a good few comments in there that amount to “Azov aren’t nazis, they only used to be. And if they are, they’re just defending their country. Ruzzia has more nazis anyway. Ruzzia are the only nazis here actually.”

          Sorry, I guess my confusion was that the post isn’t even calling Azov Nazis, but I guess even the implication just by facetiously calling them “non-political” is enough to set people off.
