yes, i'm sure the wolfsangel actually just means "National Idea"
Outright lyingYeah, I’m sure the n and I definitely exist in Ukrainian.
"I" exists but only as an "i" and "N" is obviously nonexistent.
Yeah, and of course, national idea is absolutely two words with the exact meaning in Ukrainian.
Well technically kind of, super similar words, and also two of them, but nontheless it's not what the emblem means. It's a Nazi one
They also forget to mention the uniquely nazi Black Sun found in the background of the Full Azov Emblem just under the wolfsangels:

This would still be ridiculous if they did - the idea that you can just lie and say "it's an acronym" is ridiculous. The Wolfsangel has hundreds of years of history, and has been one of the biggest symbols of the far right since ww2. This is like saying a swastika is just four Ls spelling out "Live, laugh, Love, Liberty". Besides the fact that the Azov logo had a literal sonnenrad in it until 2015.
This propaganda is absurdly, hilariously wrong. Like holy shit do people have to be gullible as hell to believe this, but I know some will be fooled.

That implies that I believe that I achieve the average stupid.
1: Although the Ukrainian language does use "i" it does not use the "n" letter, it uses the "h" letter to symbolize the alveolar nasal.
2: There could have been so many ways they could have placed the two letters, but conveniently chose to put these two letters in a way to show a wolfsangel, I do wonder why....
3: The phrase "national idea" in such a context also sounds fascistic.
Anyone who denies the nazi implications behind the azov symbol is either a willfully ignorant lib, or a masking neonazi.
it does not use the "n" letter
It does use the и letter tho, it's just pronounced /ɪ/ not /n/. If you're gonna say it has an "h" letter (it's not, it's н) because it has similar shape then it also has an "n" letter.
I agree with everything else, just adding for the sake of accuracy.
And for that, I thank you!
Apparently the guys rocking neo-nazi insignia believe in tolerance lmaoo what a joke
Don't make me tap the sign.
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Yeah, it stands for National Idea. The idea being, of course, mass eradication of the “lesser peoples”
They aren’t even being coy about it anymore, everyone knows by now that “protecting national ideas and the culture of the people” really means “getting rid of the inconvenient groups that threaten the master race.”
Gotta preserve that gene pool /s
They're just used to excusing their East Asian death squads wearing swastikas with, "oh its a different culture they don't know what a Nazi is".
Where did you find that? This is the most bizarre excuse I have ever seen for this.
What's their excuse for the Sonnenrad in their emblem until a couple years ago?
it's going to be a maze
What site is this drivel on?
The national idea for the Azov fighters implies a militant devotion to th ukrainian people and willingness to sacrifice their own health and even their lives for the well-being and safety for ukrainians
Sure. That's why they beat up, kidnap and sending those ukrainians to the front lines without proper equipment and shoot them in the back when they want to survive and surrender while those Azov "fighters" refuse to fight a the frontlines.
Fucking nazi sympathizers.
I’m pretty certain 8 years ago these are the same people who were trying to gaslight everyone that the hand okay sign, was a dogwhistle for Nazism. Now that their Nazi group is fighting the people they want it to fight, “Nazism is not real”
The swastika is actually two S's which stands for "Super Sexy" as in "only white people are super sexy, everyone else is a subhuman"
Ah yes, the typical Ukrainian Cyrillic letters “N” and “I”.
MYTH LMAO
"national idea" is a synonym for nationalism lol. it's how fascism is distinct from the left's "class idea." this is an affirmation of the neonazi character of the azov symbol, not a repudiation of it.
Insanity but westoids will gobble this up.
Ah phew, I was getting worried that the battalion led by someone saying "we have to fight ze semite led UNTERMENSCHEN in a glorious crusade to protect the white races!" was a neo-nazi battalion, im sure that also means that they dont use any other nazi symbols. What? They use the Sonnenrad? The one used by the Christchurch shooter? Oh fuuuuu-
