      To be fair, there were many communists who volunteered in Wagner just so they can kill fascists.

      However, what the Ukrainian Nazis really hated was the Soviet legacy, and continued to blame the Russians for being the ones who brought communism into their “country” (which is even more ironic, as Putin had pointed out, their country was given to them by Lenin).
