Nazbols

[Vladislav]

I have always been confused on who these people are and in what they believe in.

I'm bringing this up now due to what's happening in Moscow University.

I've found this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTVFp-jCnvY) clip about nazbols and I have no idea what they're trying to achieve.

I have also found this (http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2007/04/15/russia-protest.html?ref=rss) article about a recent protest.

Can someone please enlighten me.

hypernationalists with communist symbols since those symbols represent a time when russia was great and powerful, an empire as it were.

The National Bolsheviks are kind of like the international third positionists; they combine some pseudo-leftist reform with heavy nationalism. I know the National Bolshevik party was aligned with some other nationalist parties in Russia.

National Bolshevics. They are slavic national socialialists (nazis). Like all nationalists they glorify their nations history and so look to Lenin and the Soviet super power to provide the "theme" to their nationalism, as ironic as that is.

They are basically nationalists who since Russia was powerful when it was socialist and then social-imperialist, want to see it return to those days. I've read that they've done some pretty good stuff though like occupying factories and calling successful strikes. While it is bothering that they basically replace the swatizka with a hammer and sickle, I don't know weither they are "national socialists" exactly, as they seem far more progressive

Differences between nazbols and white supremacists? (http://www.revleft.com/index.php?showtopic=60665&hl=+national++bolsheviks)

They're a fascist parody of a communist parody of fascism. In other words, a wolf in sheep's clothing, in wolf's clothing. They're basically the Party from 1984.

Well.

It's an ultra-right wing movement made up of deeply confused individuals, who look to the Third Reich as a model marxist society. Largely based on the confused ramblings of Celine.

They are deeply Homopobic and Racist, with an odd spiritualist and superstitous tone in much of their rethoric. My understanding is that want a White-only Europe, which sytematically exploits other regions such as the middle east for resources and slave labour, to build up what it considers to be a "holy-communist empire" in Europe.

They believe that Medievil Europe and ancient celtic societies were fundementally communist - and that Capitalism and industrialisation have crushed the artistic and mystical spirit (spirit in a supernatural sense) of the white race.

For more infomation read Celines: Ayran Communism (http://www.vanguardnewsnetwork.com/l...304letters.htm)

Some extracts;
"Celine was not opposed to communism n principle. He believed that the white race was dying due to a lack of community"

"Celine was in favor of Communism, but Communism of a very special type, which had thus far only prevailed in the distant past of Europe and which he hoped National Socialism would embody. He outlined this in 1938 in his volcanic work of black comedy and intractable anti-humanism, "The School of the Cadavers" (dedicated to the pagan emperor, Julian the Apostate), wherein he identified himself as a "communist of the soul" and proclaimed his clarion precis:

"The Jew is afraid of only one thing, Communism without Jews""

I always thought of "National Bolsheviks" as romantic Emo kids fascinated by Soviet and communist symbols. They are to be ignored as a trend of the petit-bourgeois which is utterly isolated from any contact with the workers. They do not organize strikes or engage in sabotage. Recently in Russia they have even acted as stooges for imperialism. Limonov and the National Bolsheviks join a long list of imperialist proxies, including Ahmed Chalabi’s Iraqi National Congress, Jonas Savimbi's UNITAS, and the Nicaraguan contras who enlisted as servants of the Empire.
