Link so you libs can go deal with it. I can dunk just fine from here, thanks.
this takedown of the Molotov-Ribbentrop smear using documents from the Soviet archives was pretty cool
now I'm wondering whether or not an american president or even representative has ever given such a speech. we have Crenshaw's action movie campaign ads, Trump's shitposts and Obama's quarter Christian idealism, but have we ever had someone defend America's history with archived documents to back it up?
this is the last time I remember an American official talking about US history. And also Kamala last week talking about how the poverty in Guatamala is the cause of the mass migration while (I hope) pretending to be completly ignorant about America's past interventions in the country.
we are a moral catastrophe.
Ask them why the Nazis were bad and they'll say "Because they were fascists."
:yes-chad:
Redditors think they're being so subversive when they say 'fuck Putin' it's like when children learn how to swear
did you know Winnie the Pooh is banned in China? that's why Shanghai Disneyland has a Winnie the Pooh Adventure
it’s like when children learn how to swear
The entirety of the Midwest's ears are ringing
Redditors are so impotent and unoriginal with their anger. It basically boils down to "fuck ____"
'fuck Putin'
'fuck Trump'
'fuck cancer'
'fuck the CCP' (when they're barely mask-on at least)
Strangely enough, you don't see too much, 'fuck fascism' or 'fuck Nazis' in comparison.
lmao i always see shit like, "fuck putin <blah blah blah> oh yeah, fuck the CCP and WinIe dA PoOH just cause"
the hundreds of redditos type "so brave" unironically and they get reddit gold like 8 times
saw a guy unironically claiming that reddit mods personally go through anti-see-see-pee posters' history and ban them for previous racism. And I mean, yeah, that's probably good if true, these fuckers aren't very good at hiding that they're nazis.
I love how I saw an americshill say "they saw themselves as liberators. liberations don't last 45 years." REALLY? CAUSE THAT SEEMS TO BE HOW LONG AMERICAN ONES TAKE. :agony-limitless:
we're still in every european country that we entered at the same time as the soviet union at the end of ww2. why are we occupying every EU state, and most African states, and many middle Eastern States, and half of Asia?(I know why, but it bothers me how there is no good reason that follows what they say, but they still support it.)
I don't think you can convince a lib that America occupies Europe or Japan the way they think the USSR occupied the Warsaw Pact states. South Korea is especially blatant.
yeah it's like Europe and Japan both have enormous military bases too, they're just not right in the middle of capitals like they are in Seoul
Add to that the fact that American embassies are insanely militarized compared to other embassies. They know they are an occupying force.
Oh that's true, I forgot about the Spanish-American war. Puerto Rico is even more egregious.
Puerto Rico is definitely colonised (as is Hawaii, one of the few times I might stan a monarchist monement) but I feel the outcome of the Phillippine genocide and annexation outedges it, if only just.
cough west Germany cough.
The French part of west Germany literally had police who had worked for Vichy France. And judges who had been judges under the Nazi's.
It's the lol psyche of defeating fascism
Think what you want about Putin (he sucks), but when you're right you're right.
Not gonna look it up, just gonna write them out and be correct.
US, Israel, Poland, Brazil, Hungary
Assuming this was a recent vote anyway.
It's like that phenomenon of people driving their car into the only tree in the entire desert because they fixate on it rofl
"How do we prevent another anti-semitic reactionary movement from claiming that we eat babies and then genociding us?"
Immediately does a Nakba
At big lots today I was speaking Russian with my father and the boomer age lady in front of us in line asked "are you speaking Russian?" And I said yeah. Her husband (I assume) asked "You're Russian? I hate Putin!" to which I responded "uh, so do I?". Very confused, idk if that was his idea of a joke or if he was genuinely trying to trigger the libs or something
I think it was just boomer brain in action. He just got shortwired and blurted out the first (possibly only) thing in his mind that connected to the word "Russia".
such an american exceptionalism ass move too. Like even if terk wouldn't have been not a fan its still a ridiculous presumptuous and disrespectful thing for the second thing you ever say to a person to be some dumb shit about their country's politics. Like be a fucking human and act normal.
I'm no Putin fan but this is cool af. It makes me sick to my stomach to think about all the Red Army soldiers, Partisans and Soviet civilians who fought, struggled and died being compared to the fucking Nazis because redfashtankieauthoritianismblahblahblah
"Anyone who loves freedom owes such a debt to the Red Army that it can never be repaid.” -Ernest Hemingway
I will fight any lib who tries to both sides our boys and girls in red. shit literally offends me
That's a great quote, and yeah, it really does make my blood boil.
The only reason Poland exists on a map right now is because of the Soviet Union.
and there's the result of anti-communism being the bedrock of Western intellectualism for the last 100 years
That's just saying Hitler was better than Stalin with extra steps.
even when I was a lib I never believed that Stalin=Hitler shit
Ending the holocaust seemed a little better than perpetrating it.
Edit: It would also be nice if liberals would stop erasing Jewish history. Much of the holocaust happened in the territory of the Soviet Union and was a violent climax following hundreds of years of anti-Semitic violence. Why am I supposed to be offended that Stalin was willing to deal with these perpetrators both before and after WW2? Were Jews just supposed to keep dying because fighting back would be messy?

I found "My god the anount of people just jerking off hitler is extremely concerning" with 730 upvotes, and then I left because it was probably the only positive comment I was going to see lmao
Stalin killed every counterrevolutionary that ever died, on the whole planet.
The game Hitman is based on the life of Stalin during his career as a faceless globe-trotting assassin personally eliminating anyone who farted rudely in his general direction.
Makes no sense. I assumed their right wingers identified more with the Whites.
It's kind of split, actually. The more "ideologically consistent" chuds in Russia stan the Whites and monarchy while other stan the USSR because it actually got shit done and is/was a source of Russian national pride. I have a cousin in Russia who's the latter isn't a total white supremacist who I've been trying to turn into an actual commie.
May 7th is Victory Day, so this is probably red meat for Nationalists, rather than a Communism thing.
Russians? Like, obviously Russians and especially nationalists which is Putin's base really don't like people shouting at them how they were worse than Nazis.
Anyone else feel unusually ambivalent about Putin as a leftist? Yeah, dude is a murderous egomaniac but shit,.....he could be so much worse.
The only respectable* thing about fascists like Putin is the commitment to violence as the fundamental, base reality of a state.
- you do not in any circumstance need to hand it to them.
Gorby was bad, but Yeltsin is still the most evil vile one in that situation.
Like Yeltsin straight up killed unions and shit.
