Also TIL Asuka from Evangelion is low key nazi dogwhistle in AFU.
- Asuka is based, why do nazis use her?
  
  She was an officer in the Luftwaffe before joining the Evangelion service.
  
  There is official artwork of her in a straight Nazi Luftwaffe uniform.
  
  There are also several swastikas in the show itself.
did I read this right and this guy brought his body pillow to the trenches?
- Yeap. Russian skitzo political landscape be like: we got volunteers from CPRF on the frontlines, battlepriests, squad of football fans, squad of nazbols, and...oh, right, squad of anime fans.
  
  I seem to remember something about a community of anime fans involved in humanitarian aid called Орда (Horde) too. 21st century war in Europe be like. And, speaking of Horde
  
  Literally Warhammer 40k, sigh of course we get to miss the Golden Age

- Yeah that's true and all but I can't wait to yell 'it's punishment time' after Elensky's trial for war crimes ends
