National Bolshevism

National Bolshevism, abbreviated as Nazbol, is an economically far-left, authoritarian, culturally far-right and ultra-nationalist ideology (can be cultural or ethnic nationalism depending on context) who advocates for a Bolshevik-inspired system of governance, which includes a socialist economy and a strong centralised state, in combination with extreme nationalism and support for traditional values, borrowing some elements and aesthetics from fascism. He is often seen as a unifying syncretic ideology between far-left and far-right currents of political thought due to his unique combination of economic and cultural views. While Nazbol has achieved notoriety in internet circles due to the "Nazbol Gang" meme, National Bolshevism exists as a genuine ideology in Russian politics, combining state socialism with Russian ultra-nationalism. There are two distinct variants of Nazbol: one is more in the vein of Marxism-Leninism, except with the addition of nationalist and culturally right-wing beliefs, while one is more like an economically far-left version of  National Socialism (much in the vein of Strasserism); these are sometimes referred to as "Left Nazbol" and "Right Nazbol" respectively, with Left being closer to the ideology present in Russian politics and Right being closer to the exaggerated meme version that combines Bolshevism with Nazism.

Personality and Behavior
In the comics, Nazbol is most often depicted as closer to the meme version of the ideology as opposed to any real-life counterparts. He can be depicted with a range of stereotypes surrounding political extremists (himself being a combination of two of them) but is usually seen as erratic, insane and occasionally prone to violence, especially in response to perceived threats from subversive globalists and capitalist pigs. Nazbol is currently the leader of the largest gang on the planet, and in some comics, he is only capable of communicating by "GANG GANG GANG GANG", both of these being references to the Nazbol Gang memes. Additionally, he can also be sometimes seen having an unhealthy obsession with Joseph Stalin.

Friends

 * [[File: ML.png]] Marxism-Leninism - My beloved father and greatest ideological inspiration, I just miss his more patriotic and conservative days. Shame he got rid of the gulags...
 * [[File: Nazi.png]] National Socialism - Not enough actual socialism, and he's even more race-obsessed than I am, but we still work together very often. Nice job with the camps.
 * [[File: Strasser.png]] Strasserism - Economically based, unlike his brother. Hunting down globalist capitalists together is one of our favourites pastimes.
 * [[File: Consocf.png]] Conservative Socialism - Good friend and my more moderate counterpart. Sometimes he thinks I'm insane, but he's still a loyal member of my GANG.
 * [[File: Stalin.png]] Stalinism - Favorite cousin and the closest thing to me in real life. GANG GANG.
 * [[File: Fash.png]] Fascism - Your cultural views and commitment to nationalism will always be worthy of respect in my eyes. Please shift left more economically though.
 * [[File: Natan.png]] National Anarchism - He's basically me as an anarchist! Based?
 * [[File: Ecofash.png]] Eco-Fascism - We've been getting along well lately as his views on environmental protection need economic collectivism.
 * [[File: Flang.png]] National Syndicalism - Spanish associate and high-ranking GANG member. Shouldn't have shot Stalinists in the Spanish Civil War though but we can ignore that today.

Frenemies

 * [[File: Natcom.png]] National Communism - We're almost an ideological match, given that he's basically our father MLball as practiced in the 20th century, so he just needs a little more cultural rightism. I don't like how he pretends to hate me though.
 * [[File: Moncom.png]] Monarcho-Socialism - We're not friends, but I respect his love for strongman leaders and socialism. I've always found his ways intriguing.
 * [[File: Nazcapf.png]] National Capitalism - Based nationalist, but all our conversations seem to be arguments over economics.
 * [[File: Leftnat.png]] Left-Wing Nationalism - Helps me fight globalist capitalist pigs, but I'm not letting him join the GANG until he drops the cringe progressivism.
 * [[File: Patcon.png]] Paternal Conservatism - Good candidiate for Nazbol radicalisation.
 * [[File: Dsa.png]] Democratic Socialism - You could have been helping me infiltrate liberal democracies but you're too busy spending time with degenerates. How pitiful.

Enemies

 * [[File: Neoliberal-icon.png]] Neoliberalism - Judeocapitalist and the one he blames for all the ills of the world, by combining the worst aspects or progressivism and capitalism.
 * [[File: Pinkcap.png]] Pink Capitalism- Literal Opposite. Should be kept a mile apart from Pink Capitalism unless you want to see him fly into murderous rage.
