Putin has no fifth column strategy. All this Putler nonsense is Western propaganda. It’s projection. He’s not a great guy, but he’s also not leading a fascist movement. And anyway, Russia has negligible ability to influence the Western electorates, despite propaganda to the contrary.

It could definitely be a happy accident for Putin that European fascists support Russia and Russia them

It’s a mixed bag. Ukrainian fascists and NAFO neo-Nazis don’t support Russia.

Yeah. The effort seems to be more concentrated on the normalization of and on-the-surface-level parliamentary party fascists.
