Recently, a Jordan Peterson fan called our national flag here “Flag of nazi collaborators in ww2”. In order to educate Western far-right/far-left clowns in the history of collaboration in WW2 I’m making a post for them to learn that not only in Belarus collaborators used the national flag.

The far-right and far-left fans of lukashenko’s propaganda should be learning history, not sitting around spreading the propaganda of authoritarian governments on reddit. Personally, I hate it when the White-red-white flag the only flag in the world is demonized because of WWII. Why such injustice to our national flag? Call the flags of russia and France nazi flags too then.
This is what happens when dictators spread propaganda and change history to suit their security and power grab. As long as the resistance keeps fighting and doesn’t bend we will make sure the true national flag isn’t tarnished.
Жыве Беларусь!
Shame, that nobody on the West read about BNR and their struggle for independence in 1918. Shame nobody realized, that the White-Red-White flag was originally created as a representative symbol of the mentioned formation. Once again, shame, nobody took a look at how the Belarusian movements were operating during WWII and after it.
Explore this issue in more depth. I mean, the theme of the very first Belarusian underground fighters and partisans of the 2WW years (not the “red” ones, who were completely subordinate to the kremlin and depended on it. But the so-called “green” partisans are those who were nationally oriented, and were like against the nazis, t and against the kremlin bolshevik-stalinists. They were also in the history of Belarus (BSSR in those days). Yes, they used our flag, but in no case WERE collaborators. (They tried to use the occupation and the power of the nazis in the occupied territories for national revival – first of all, education and culture… And when you thoroughly study this topic in sufficient depth, then you will be able to write a more reliable article, IMHO.
Love this post 👏
Are you certain about accuracy of these flags? To my knowledge Switzerland remained neutral during World War II
Just out of curiosity, what are the far left clowns you speak of.
Of course he did. Peterson is a pseudo-intellectual appealing to the sort of misfit who thinks Putin is God and Trump is his prophet.
