A group of St. Petersburg teenagers used a neo-Nazi slogan as their team name as they won a quiz contest marking International Tolerance Day.

The competition was part of a wider program of combating xenophobia introduced in schools all over Russia.

Joining the government’s efforts to boost tolerance among pupils, the teachers of Petersburg School No. 420 organized a quiz that would award the team with the most right answers.

The award itself was put on the school’s bulletin board, which is how it caught the attention of an Internet user who photographed it and published at LiveJournal. The diploma featured the team’s name: “14/88,” which contains two numbers used prominently in Nazi slogans. The first one, known as “The Fourteen Words,” was coined by David Lane, a member of 1980s white separatist organization The Order. The second symbolizes an 88-word statement from Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf,” and can also refer to the Nazi greeting “HH” ("Heil Hitler") – the eights representing the eighth letter of the alphabet.

The school’s teachers said they were unaware of the code’s meaning. Once informed of the incident, they removed the diploma and promised to talk to the pupils – to find out if that was a silly joke or something more serious.

Russia Today likes to censor posters who don't express 'Russia's' present political views regarding multiculturalism.

If RT wishes to be taken seriously, then it will stop deleting 'anti multiculturalism' posters views......
 
My my either you're a troll or you have severe intellectual limitations. "Multi culturalism" dates back to thousands of years BC - examples of that are Egypt, Babylon and Persia, to name just a few. 
Then, Russia is by history multicultural in that it harbours dozens upon dozens of different ethnic groups with dozens upon dozens of different languages, different creeds and different historical backgrounds.
And USA getting destroyed by immigrants? It was founded and thrives by immigration! USA wouldn't exist without the utter destruction of locals by immigrats. That's what made the USA come into existance you numbnuts! It was built by and on the shoulders of immigrants of all kinds and continents... If you really overlook this I wonder how can someone be as mentally challenged as you are? 

And who do you think you are telling Russians to get over Nazi Germany you imbecile? And furthermore with the accusation of starting WWII and comming up with the absurd assertion that Russians killed 86 million (what a specific number no less) in blatant defiance of logic....
Definit ely you're a troll - someone with the intellectual level required to hold those views would hardly be able to even start up a computer, let alone start a browser and type something.

They were victims of a white genocide propaganda exercise.

This is common ground on which anti-whites say we must all agree: what is non-white belongs to non-whites, and what is White also belongs to non-whites. It is genocide. Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.
