I feel bad for these guys whether they are crazy neonazis or not. I'm sure a lot of them are legitimate militia who just wanted to defend their land, even if the leader is some kind of glowie or financed by outsiders. It's their Red Dawn but the government will probably sell them out and they don't stand a chance.
But I don't know if they were the ones killing innocent ethnic Russians. That would change things.
Looks like they will take over enough to put pressure on Ukraine or set up a puppet regime, then withdraw when they're done. It's not like NATO is doing anything to stop them.
I think that was the goal initially, but after they moved into Donbas the world didn’t react all that harshly so now they are probably making a play for the whole thing
I thought they were just Ukranian patriots who are LARP'ing as Nazis.
But looks like they are just insane, because this is the only way to prevent further damage.
Or maybe they realize that any peace with Russia will be the end of Azov, but this will make it easier as Ukraine and Russia can agree that Azov has to go.

They're not. They have many Russian members, Russians from Russia too.
Tornado Battalion commited crimes but they were literally bandits (criminals who banded together for very organized crime as a police unit). The had some ex-Azov guys: https://uacrisis.org/en/55087-need-know-case-former-tornado-battalion-servicemen

So Ukrainians only choices are a western puppet or a russian puppet.
Always was.

They're ultranationalists, at least they didn't call him a Jew (which he is, but it's not a secret).
