I'm just saying explanations should be made, and from the sounds of it, they have and the brand has been on damage control. I'm not saying FOG is a Nazi collab or that we should burn FOGagonia hats in the street. My takeaway was pretty much them saying "we out here." Maybe a critical look at their hosts was forthcoming, and we may never know. This wasn't my takeaway from FOG's content on Ukraine. The hostility towards journalists didn't spawn out of nowhere. Granted, these were separatist fighters, but the point is that the press were portraying these "bad" people in bad light. Vice published a special report on the War in Donbas and volunteer fighters were literally telling them to fuck off because they're tired of being portrayed as nazis, drunks, etc. The difference between news agencies hanging out with shitty people, is that they make it clear that they're hanging out with shitty people. So, yes, most fatherland-enabled journalists were probably Nazis, or at the very, least pushing the Nazi narrative. The Nazi state wasn't exactly inviting critical journalism, or critical anything. I get where you're trying to go with this point, but this analogy falls flat because the answer is "most likely, yes." It's almost as silly as the above "well he's black, so clearly they can't be *that* bad" take above. "If you were a journalist in 1944.and your access to the front was through Germany and the Germans, does that make you a Nazi?" And blaming it on the Russians or host platforms seems a bit sketch. I think he took his own pages down to do some immediate damage control, personally. I don't think this is a death blow to FOG, but it's got to be handled carefully going forward. But unfortunately circumstances have placed him in a position where he's going to have to expose everything, malintent or not. It has always been my favorite brand in the market. Cossack Gundi gets asked that question pretty much every time he does a Q&A. Again, like I said, you don't have to be an expert on that war to know that several Ukrainian volunteer battalions are filled with unsavory types. If you're him, you gotta take a step back and ask yourself the big questions "Should I hang out with a bunch of people that have a reputation as Nazis? Would anyone notice? How would this affect my brand?"īest intentions aside, it was a stupid decision. Even if they were the only willing hosts. Like I said, I don't really care, and I don't think it really matters. I know, because I've always followed the brand closely, that he wasn't and that he was open about it. Not saying he promoted that, or told people that. The general consensus, I've noticed, is that people thought he was SF.
