I'd consider myself antifascist.
I consider myself antifascist and antirussia (in its current state) at the same time
The entire Eastern European bloc has been in a nosedive since the 90s. Its like trying to pick sides during WW1, when everything is corrupt and everyone in authority sucks and yet the only real crime is saying people aren't killing each other fast enough.
If Eugene Debbs were alive today, he'd still be in prison.
There is no such thing as an "Eastern European bloc". There is only "Russia" and "countries running away from Russia".

Are you a Warsaw Pact denialist?
I deny that the Warsaw Pact exists right now, if that's what you mean. You might as well argue that the Roman Empire is in decline right now.
I also deny that the Warsaw Pact benefited its member countries. After all, it was the only defensive alliance that invaded its own members.
