Ion Antonescu, leader legionario rumeno della Seconda Guerra Mondiale responsabile di molteplici massacri e innumerevoli morti e sua moglie raffigurati “con orgoglio” da una chiesa ortodossa da lui costruita, sono sinceramente disgustato

Well, we have a church with a painting of Mussolini here (Montreal).
Romania in WW2 switched sides faster than a Eurovision vote. History’s got plot twists.
He has a cult following in Constanța churches, a well-known fact that’s been reported on.
… Why are you disgusted? Dude paid for the church, he can decorate it however he likes. If you’re going to be disgusted, at least be disgusted by the right things. (And definitely, *definitely* don’t look into history too much… You’ll find that far worse people did more or less the same thing.)
Im so tired of liberals
You’re disgusted because he’s new enough that his massacres aren’t history.
He paid for the church. Deal with it.
I’m sure his supporters will come with excuses like he didn’t know about it or he didn’t order any massacres. People always find reasons to support evil.
Bro are Romanians the new Turks? I can’t believe the genocide apologia I am seeing here.
Tbf, painting the person who built the church (with a model of said Church in his hand) is a tradition in Orthodoxy. Every such church has this.
I am more worried about streets having his name or Octavian Goga’ s name. Or other rabid antisemites.
I read decapitated with pride and was confused for a second why they still had heads in the painting
What you would do if Hitler comes to you as leader of your country and tells you ” your country or a massacre?”. For sure he was in a very difficult situation to choose, so he chose the people. Sometimes in life we have to make a sacrifice in order other to live in peace. Just and ordinary opinion.
Ugh
It’s not like older saint rulers that you see there are not responsible for any massacres.
This comment section is insane…
Can mods just ban those genocide apologists that defend a Holocaust perpetrator?
Would be a bummer if somebody defaced it.
We must not erase history whatever the subject
Erasing history leads to repeating the same mistakes. The history is complex, anyone interested in it cannot understand it without significant research work.
Yuck
How come? Cause the romanian orthodox belives in stories and fairy tales regardless the history and facts
Afaik, founders and contributors who built a church, have a right to have their image put on a church wall. Only thing that differentiates them from saints is saints’ halo which is missing.
