Not even saving the world is enough for these fuckers… And it’s always the same shit. Like we all learned about the Molotov-Ribbentrop shit in school. Like all the other bullshit propaganda. Why would this piece of propaganda be true? They accept at face value that their government and schools lied to them. But not about the Soviets! That is all true!
Very important photo historically, people tend to forget Soviets were also the bad guys in the WW2
Communism in shambles due to one picture, Horseshoe Theory proven true. Good thing there are no pictures of the ‘good’ Allies shaking hands and making deals with the bad guy fascists.
Oh, no! Well, at least they also didn’t make deals with the truly evil USSR.
Now I don’t know who the good guys of WW2 are anymore. Switzerland?
Don’t let them read FDR’s letters to Stalin!
I wish anyone liked me as much as FDR liked Stalin.
Goals: Find someone who looks at you the way FDR looks at Stalin.
Switzerland?
Oh, damn!
Maybe in these tough times we should turn away from secular countries and find refuge in the eternally good and always moral Catholic Church.
I’m a big fan of your posts, by the way! Thanks!
People like talking so much about Molotov-Ribbentrop, but they conveniently forget about the Munich Agreement that preceded it, and was likely the major catalyst for it:
-
England and France basically gave Czechoslovakia to Hitler, without Czechoslovakia even being represented in the room. The Soviets are bad for taking Polish areas that used to be Soviet areas just 20 years prior, so the Nazis wouldn’t take them.
-
England and France did it for “peace in our times”, but the Soviets did it because Stalin and Hitler were best buds?
-
England and France did it because they wanted to avoid a repeat of WW1, but the Soviets did it because they apparently didn’t suffer enough in WW1.
-
England and France did it because they didn’t know any better at the time, but Molotov-Ribbentrop was apparently signed after everybody knew Hitler was evil (i.e. starting WW2) - Just in case the sarcasm is a bit confusing here, Molotov-Ribbentrop was signed before England and France declared war on Germany, so before WW2 broke out in Europe.
-
And of course, England and France were appalled and surprised at the Soviet Union’s stance, but the Soviet Union is not allowed to be appalled when England and France are trying to bribe Hitler with the annexation of other countries and refusing to join an anti-Nazi alliance.
-
Lest we forget, France was Czechoslovakia’s ally. France, Czechoslovakia and the USSR had signed a mutual assistance treaty specifically against Nazi Germany a couple years back. France’s betrayal of Czechoslovakia was a much worse act than the invasion of hostile Poland by the Soviets.
(Also, let’s not forget the Vienna Awards)
-
If the Hitler had possessed enough wisdom/restraint to postpone or cancel Barbarossa despite his ideological hatred of the Soviets then the odds of a D-Day type landing being possible would have been way, way smaller and short of a nuclear bombardment of Europe the Nazis may never have been defeated
Idiot thinks d-day beat the nazis.
And that the Nazis lost because “Hitler wasn’t smart/wise enough”…
What idealism does to a person.

Holy shit they upvoted this generic topic one hundred eighteen goddamn times? Is this their first day learning about World War II?
I wouldn’t be so resentful if they’d at least bring something new to the table, like understanding the treaty from Berlin’s point of view or comparing it with Finland’s negotiations with the Fascists. But no, it’s just the same old ‘gommies = nozzies’ mantra that we’ve all heard umpteen thousand times already.
toptier brainrot. also lets not talk about the previous 12 other deals where other europeans power handled land to nazi german on a platter, then go on saying that su is as bad as nazi germany
Why are there so many nazis on kbin?
