I'm surprised that this article doesn't engage more with the current war. Given that Russia has been accusing Ukraine of being a 'nazi state' since day one, I'd be surprised if that hadn't changed the level of support for this kind of politics. I can imagine how it could go either way: increasing because of the threat to Ukraine's national identity, or decreasing to not prove the Russians right and to rally around Zelenskyy, who is overall a moderate. I do notice that all of the pictures in this article are from before the war. It's also weird they don't mention that Azov were more-or-less wiped out in the opening stages of the invasion at Mariupol.
