One of our beautiful posters rat-salute Had a quote I think in another instance, Something about “Europe will not forgive Hitler, not because of xyz, but because he turned colonialism upon white Europeans” Can someone remind me who the author of that was?

    There is a quote attributed to Georgy Zurkov - “We have liberated Europe from fascism, but they will never forgive us for it.”

    I do not know what the source material is though. (Wikipedia cites this but I can not read it)

    Probably not what you’re looking for, but strikes a similar chord.

      that’s a good one, but that’s not the one I was thinking of- it was more of Europe not forgiving Hitler, not the soviets

      It was in response to what some other lemmy user said I think but there’s a lot of that going around so I’m not sure
