It’s a fact.

    Imperialist apologists, why am I not surprised? You get that Russia flight with Germany until they got betrayed right? Right?

        I mean it doesn’t change the fact that Soviet Union did make a deal with the Nazis and split Europe between them. Nobody is doubting that there was a reason for doing it.

            I think you misunderstood. It doesn’t change the fact that such a pact happened and that they did divide Europe between them in it. It’s opinion on how justified such a thing where those arguments matter.

                That was the preceding discussion. Someone seemed to be denying it happening at all. Someone came in with a justification for the action, I was just saying that it doesn’t change the fact of it happening, just the justification over it. For further clarification, I’m against the denialism. I’m not saying it wasn’t a pragmatic decision, even if morally dubious.

                    I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt since their tone seemed to be changing a bit during the discussion, but it turned out it was just the old “that didn’t happen and even if it did” thing.

          If that’s a ‘fact’ it should be easy to prove right?
          Or is it more likely you pulled it from your ass?

                You might want to read the whole first sentence of the article lol

                was a non-aggression pact between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, with a secret protocol establishing Soviet and German spheres of influence across Eastern Europe.

                  LOL Maybe you should learn that Wikipedia is not a source and proven to be extremely biased and manipulated.
                  You don’t even know that.
                  And even that Wiki page doesn’t cite sources, something you need if you don’t want to be seen as just making shit up, which you clearly are.
                  You claim it’s in that pact, then go to the absolute source and show me where it is.

                    Wikipedia just has approachable articles, so I linked to that since you seemingly hadn’t heard of the pact. It cites sources like so [1] for further reading. And the existence of such pact has been admitted to in Germany, Soviet Union and later in Russia. Its existence isn’t exactly controversial. It’s rather how justified it was that’s argued about.

                    You claim it’s in that pact, then go to the absolute source and show me where it is.

                    Here’s the original texts [1], [2]. If you want an English translation, plenty of them online. Heres’ one (pdf). The secret protocols are at the end.

        Yeah so they chose to sleep with the enemy, two faced imperialists, you’re not making the point you think you are.

        Genuinely, this is supposed to be a socialist/communist instance but y’all can’t stop dick riding stalinists like they’re goddamn perfect. Even if you support them you sure as shit shouldn’t be blind about everything because of it.

          France and Britain slept with the enemy. Russia saw the writing on the wall and tried to prevent it.

          Russia was the main party fighting ww2. France instantly capitulated to the Nazis.

          I get that you are a liberal but accurately retelling ww2 is not riding Stalin. Stalin made plenty stupid moves but mostly after the war. The only reason the West fought the Nazis is because they finally came for them.

            No one said they didn’t, France and Britain aren’t however actively threatening nuclear war of they can’t annex a sovereign nation. I’m not even sure I could conceive of a more imperialist things to do.

            Not really no, they had more people but they had terrible industry contributing more bodies ≠ contributing more. Re: lend lease

            I’m not a liberal dipshit. But go ahead and try to define me from three comments, that certainly wouldn’t paint you as an idiot or a bigot. And also no one is arguing that, you’re making idiotic inferences from nothing. Knowing Russia is not the good guy does not mean I’m saying anyone else is.

            All I’m saying is stop buying into pro Soviet propaganda or any other propaganda for that matter. It’s like your subs mascot should be Stalin murdering a personification of nuance.

              At least when you are wrong try to not load your comments with insults. I guess you are trying to find a reason to get banned while libposting so you can make a whine post about it on lib communities and pretend you got banned for libposting instead being a toxic turd.

                If I am wrong it would be easy to point out where the fact that you choose not to says more then anything else you could say.

                I’m not a lib so yes again you’re a dipshit, or dumbass take your pick. At least when you’re wrong accept the fact that you don’t know me personally which makes you a … let me say it again a dipshit. I didn’t insult you first but totally feel free to cry about it youn thin skinned bafoon.

                I’m not a liberal or a dipshit, brush up on your reading comprehension though that might honestly explain some of what goes on here.
