it literally says in that story
thanks to his obsessive fascination with the history of third Reich – [he] had received the nom-de-guerre “Wagner”.
alright so I traced the neopagan thing back to its source, and it looks like it ultimately came from Radio Free Europe, an interview with a Wagner commander. Obviously not everything that RFE publishes is false, but it's not really my favorite source to rest my claims on. It seems like all other reporting on Utkin being a neopagan comes from there. If you want to take a look, here (it's archived).
I think the neo-Nazi stuff rests on more solid ground though
The neopagan religion stuff (which is a pretty good signifier of neo-nazi ideology) and Wagner stuff does not come from the photo. There is evidence that he is a Nazi that has nothing to do with the photo. Idk, I feel pretty confident saying he's a Nazi.
everything I can find on Utkin says he was into Nazi and pagan shit, and that the name Wagner came from him
I’ve had enough already tonight of a guy who sounds like ChatGPT
he's trying so hard
i thought a similar thing but it looks like they're also cracking down on people sympathetic to Wagner
Ukraine was bombing the Donbas since 2014. Is Ukrainian bombing okay?
copied from above
Dmitry Utkin (who was also on the plane) is definitely a nazi, and Wagner has a lot of links to far-right elements in Russia. Wagner itself is supposed to reference Richard Wagner, Hitler's favorite composer
so Prigozhin is definitely in bed with nazis but idk anything about his actual beliefs

If someone tells you they're not going to kill you, they're calming you down to kill you later
should've remembered this simple rule
TIL history doesn't matter because we're all self-contained individuals who make decisions free from the influence of any wider "society" (which doesn't exist btw)
what "ackshually when you complain about colonialism it's racism" do they grow you people in a lab somewhere
I guess they do and it's called reddit
Redditors would never miss the chance to applaud "enlightened" racism
distinctively intolerant religion

Goddamn it's like you libs never left 2003. "The issues in the middle east are due to Islam." Just say you hate muslims dawg, I'm sure you'll find plenty of liberals here who share your backwards views.
Blaming the creation of a new law on anybody except the lawmakers is a pretty shit take, but blaming it on 150 year old colonialism is actually infantilisticI'm historically illiterate
you would've liked that huh?
What the fuck is wrong with you people?
I hope to god you’re not serious
