Gay Club in Kiev Attacked By Mob of Neo-Nazis: Video

3. Nobody's saying there aren't fascists.

However, the group that is fighting them has just made it a blanket "government" policy to raid and close gay clubs in Donets'k, Luhans'k, etc. God's Army--I'm sorry, the Russian Orthodox Army--has no use for them and outlawed them. They're also puritans when it comes to closing sex shops in general and limit alcohol sales.

The outcry over a kiss at EuroVision was immense, and the LPR and DPR press made hay out of it--the Kiev government had no problem with it, allowing decadence like that on the airwaves. The DPR and LPR closed down a tv channel or two, citing the very fact that the Eurovision contest was broadcast with such scurrilous content. The Kiev government may be fascists, but they're gay-loving fascists. Even Oleh Lyashko, hardly a moderate by any means, is condemned not so much for being a fascist as for being the "homosexual, Lyashko," in the rebel press.

It's unlikely Right Sector will have much representation at all in the new Rada when the current one self-dissolves and the new one is elected. Svoboda will have a bit more. Between the two of them they got about 2% of the vote last election. The Party of Regions might have a bit more--some vote ethnicity and fear more than anything else--but not a whole lot. But Right Sector might yet face the same fate that the Communist Party has. Forcible disbanding.
