I'm fine with these companies charging to use their service, as long as they respect privacy rights in the process. I wouldn't pay for it just the same. But at least that model isn't inherently deceptive.
You confuse symbolism in your political opponents with actual conduct that mirrors the horrors of Nazi Germany by the Russian government under the dictator, Putin. The symbolism is used for a slippery slope argument to the very horrors we see Russia committing today.
This is why you're deluded. See: Korzybski. "Science and Sanity," or his commonly used phrase, "the map is not the territory".
Can you describe these "different political ideologies" between Stalin and Purin, and how that matters to the absurd claim Ukraine is "Nazi" because some people wear insignia you don't like, verses widespread murder of civilians and the kidnapping of children - which you call merely, "fascist," as perpetrated by Russia under Putin's rule?

On the one hand, the Nazis traditionally fought communists in Germany during Weimar. But let's not forget the Soviet pact with Nazi Germany, which only ended with Germany's betrayal of Soviet Russia.

See the books: "Ministry of Illusion", by Eric Rentschler. And, "Projections of War", by Thomas Doherty.
As for the rise of the Third Reich, see: "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich", by William Shirer, and "The Politics of Cultural Despair", by Fritz Stern.
The leadership of Ukraine is not Nazi and is not totalitarian. The leadership of Russia is.
I consider your position to be deluded.
EDIT: A thorough rading of Hannah Arendt, such as, "The Origins of Totalitarianism" is in order too.
No, Jacobin. This is why I canceled my subscription.
Rota honored a former Nazi and resigned in disgrace as well he should have. But Freeland is not her grandfather and a familial relationship does not make her a Nazi.
Also, Ukraine is not Nazi. Russia is. That's projection. And Russian propaganda.
You have a neighbor experimenting with Sandkings!
