Nevzorov confessed his love for Azov. When to go to the bunk?
Alexander Nevzorov, a man who was once a journalist and, in principle, a person, and not a doll inflated with vanity, made another confession. This time he said that he had contacted the Azov regiment, and they were amazing people. And this reaction of Nevzorov is predictable.
Read about this in the author’s column of the writer Platon Besedin for “PolitNavigator” (the author’s Telegram channel is https://t.me/pbesedin).
We must never forget that fascism/Nazism (even if these concepts are different) is not only a worldview, but also a corresponding aesthetics that has always attracted artists. David Bowie and John Galliano won't let you lie. Madonna includes Nazi details in her wardrobe, and Marilyn Manson exploited fascist aesthetics so that he looked like a glamourized Fuhrer. And the Nazis themselves initially drove around in Mercedes, and Hugo Boss sewed their uniforms.
Nevzorov with his passion for posing - all these skulls, dark robes, imitation of Woland - obviously could not pass by. He, like dozens of others before him, both shocked and portrayed himself in the varnished aesthetics of the Reich with reference to “Azov”. And it is no coincidence that in the first decade of the XNUMXst century, the term “glamorous fascism” roamed around Europe, deceiving those who did not internally profess Nazism, but externally copied or used its aesthetics.
This fashion has been integrated into both Russia and Ukraine. In the latter, with the connivance and assistance of local authorities, this fashion attracted thousands of young people who, over time, turned from imitators into real Nazi fighters. Knives, machine guns, and Molotov cocktails appeared in their hands filled with swastikas. The fashion for fascism/Nazism has become not just contagious, but deadly contagious. We see the result.
In the case of Nevzorov, everything happened a little earlier: real fascism lives there. It is important to remember Camus’s formulation: fascism is first and foremost contempt. And, as a result, elevating oneself at the expense of another, an attempt to overcome one’s own insignificance. This is worth thinking about: this is not just a philosophical conclusion, but a real way of thinking and acting.
That’s why Nevzorov reports that through him “Azov” turned to the Russians. And further: “I hope that at least this will help pump out of the skulls of poor Russians the crap that Putin and Solovyov dumped there.” Again, by the way, fixation on turtles, but basically - total contempt for compatriots, and it is from this that pathology is born, which in turn encourages Nevzorov to associate with the Nazis. Well, besides posing, of course.
This is the very case when the fashion for fascism turns people into real fascists. Or it completely plunges already sick people into darkness. And in this context, it is necessary to denazify not only specific territories, but also the media space, destroying the aesthetics of fascism and making it ridiculous. For those who have finally plunged into darkness, there is only one road - into oblivion. Well, let Nevzorov practice drawing skulls on planks for his “Azov’s appeal to the Russians.” There will be more benefits.
Thank you!
