The SWIFT ban was specifically designed to not block any gas, oil or coal related trades between Russia and Europe, so that these can continue as the EU was very much aware that this kind of sanctions results into no benefit for them.

Europe did not refuse to buy gas from Russia. Russia just stopped selling gas to Europe.

I guess most Germans know that not supporting the Ukraine from now on will not lead to lower gas prices suddenly. It's to late for that I'd assume.

Germany does not have "a state media" besides DW (Deutsche Welle) which is very small and not worth talking about in the context of what you are implying.

But you can classify the government.

First of all: racism does not necessarily include fascism. That's a little more in the extreme. Second this is about media being racist (which I agree is very bad and I was shocked about these reports as well in the beginning of the war)

Third, what does this Twitter thread has to do with NATO?

Pro NATO = fascism?

This article is strange: Does the headline even fit to the article?

I don't see any statement of Chomsky in the article, where he states why NATO should immediately disband.

The first half is a brief fair criticism of military spendings of the USA and the second half a very brief explanation about the bush administration wanting Georgia and Ukraine to join NATO.

It seems like the article just gave a quick overview of Chomsky's talking points but neither goes into depth nor explains anything about Chomsky's positions.

I guess in this case fighting against the commen greater enemy is more important in the current situation.

Are you suggesting, that this anti-facist group should shoot the azov nazis?
