    Tried to publish a book written by a Nazi then cried about it when everyone said “No I’m not buying a book written by a Nazi”

    Its how a lot of us learned about Ukraine’s Azov battalion and their Swarze sonne symbol.

        Google turns up nothing. You’re gonna have to link it if true.

        Also this was a controversy from 3-4 years ago. I’m willing to let the man grow. Unfortunately this very thread starting with him working with Brandon “Don’t simp for communists” Herrera.

        So there’s also that.

            Yeah I don’t think that’s the guy who was imbedded with the Azov battalion during the Ukrainian civil uprising in the early 2010s

            That’s also not Ian McCallum.

            But that is the guy I recommended earlier in a different thread.

            Are you confused or am I?

          I completely agree that Herrera is a MAGAt bootlicker but I don’t have political expectations of Ian since, as far as I am aware, he doesn’t publicize his politics.

            Oh same honestly. I think he ultimately did the right thing with the publishing issue. He also made the correct business move sorta staying out of it when Karl Kasarda was having a spat with Browning and the ar15.com forum.

            Ian’s dome a pretty good job being a neutral observer and has course corrected both times he’s started to swerve.
