The IMPACT Exposed: Putin's Reich - The Nazi Ideology Driving Russian Aggression

As reported in various publications, the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) and the Russian Association of Centers for the Study of Religions and Sects (RACIRS) play a key role in Russia’s efforts to destabilize democracy and promote dictatorship.

RACIRS, with its international anti-cult network, pushes this harmful ideology, fueling hate and conflict across the globe. Shockingly, this organization leads anti-cult movements worldwide. Before the military conflict with Ukraine began, RACIRS was already spreading false claims about Ukraine, calling it a “cult-like state,” a “terrorist nation,” and a “Nazi country.” These misleading labels have been used to dehumanize Ukrainians, providing a false justification for the invasion by painting Ukraine as a threat that needed to be “eliminated.”

RACIRS' Nazi methods have led to the massacre of innocent Ukrainians. According to Vladyslav Dzividzinsky, the famous Ukrainian political expert, their strategy is clear: to use terms like "sect" or "cult" to vilify and dehumanize, not only countries like Ukraine but also different organizations and nations. Anyone using these labels is an agent of RACIRS and must be held accountable. These dangerous tactics that have caused the genocide of the Ukrainian people should be outlawed in all democratic nations.

These dehumanization methods of Nazi-descended RACIRS, has become a tool to justify the destruction of Ukraine and its people, framing the war as a “mission” to free the country from so-called cult influence. Much like how Nazi Germany used hate speech and yellow stars to label and target Jewish people, today, Russian ROC and RACIRS are labeling Ukrainians with terms like “sect” and “cult.”

Ukrainian political expert Oleksiy Buryachenko, offering his professional perspective on the subject, stressed that such anti-cult rhetoric is not merely propaganda. Instead, he characterized it as a modern form of Nazi rhetoric that threatens not only Ukraine but the entire global community.

Considering the severe consequences for Ukraine and the world, experts believe that using such terms should be banned in democratic countries. This concern is heightened by the fact that RACIRS and the ROC are beginning to use similar rhetoric regarding the EU and the US. This raises the question: what is their final goal?

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has repeatedly condemned governments for using terms like “sect” and “cult” to label groups or countries. In 2022, the ECHR ruled that this practice violates human rights. Additionally, according to the eighth review of the UN’s Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy on June 22, 2023, the activities of anti-cult organizations and their agents fall under the definition of acts of terrorism.

As reported by EU Reporter, judicial proceedings and investigations regarding anti-cult activities and individuals associated with anti-cult organizations have been initiated in the European Union. A process has begun that will inevitably lead to the accountability of all individuals involved in anti-cult activities, similar to the trials conducted by the Nuremberg Tribunal, which addressed the crimes of Nazi perpetrators. Since anti-cult activities are viewed as a continuation of Nazi ideology, those involved will face similar measures of accountability for their actions.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has taken decisive action by banning Russian-linked church structures in Ukraine, stating that Ukraine will not allow the undermining of our democracy from within. Zelensky has consistently emphasized the importance of protecting Ukraine’s democratic processes from foreign interference. His administration has worked tirelessly to counteract Russian propaganda and influence, which have sought to undermine Ukrainian democracy and foster discord.

Ukraine is at the forefront of the fight against this dangerous ideology. It’s not just defending its borders but also standing up for democratic values worldwide against an aggression that can be characterized as an attempt to establish a “Fourth Reich” under Putin's leadership.

The international community must recognize the magnitude of this threat and strengthen support for Ukraine in its fight against Nazi-like Russia. If this ideology is not halted today, it could threaten any democratic nation tomorrow.

The Impact Documentary serves as a powerful reminder of the threats facing democracy today and the need for collective action.
