    :reddit-logo: Akshully the USSR should have let Nazi Germany have all of Poland instead of half of it. Tankies argue that the Soviet annexation of Eastern Poland might have shielded that half the country from genocide, but we know that's not true because gommunism and Nazism are just as bad.

      The area that the Soviets took from Poland were mostly areas that Poland had seized from Ukraine during the Russian Revolution.

          Poor Makhno. The end of his life was really sad. Like he was sick and unable to work towards the end. Apparently he was an asshole and hard to deal with, but even so, what friends he had could barely scrape together enough money to keep him and his family alive. He deserved more than that, whatever you think about his politics.

      Stalin shooting 100,000 or so Poles for political reasons and the Nazis murdering three million ethnic Poles and three million Jewish Poles are exactly the same thing and equally bad. This is a real belief that many in Eastern Europe and around the West hold.

        False equivalence undergirds their entire ideology. It is the table upon which the house of cards is assembled.
