I have a feeling that "Russia invading the Donbas is as bad as Nazi Germany taking the Sudetenland" doesn't really hold up. I'm admittedly not a historian though

I'm begging the libs to learn History that isn't just American WWII documentaries
Bold of you to assume they even get it from documentaries. They watch 2 movies and just assume that's how it was. Enemy at the Gates was very effective at convincing a legion of fuckwits that the Red Army only had 1 rifle for every 2 conscripts at Stalingrad and that they machinegunned their own soldiers as a lark.
I went to an international baccalaureate school and they made us watch that in sophomore history:deeper-sadness:
How did you survive that kind of brainrot?
I was already a Soviet-sympathetic Communist, I just thought that it was an act of desperation to hold the Nazis back
Hell, when they showed us that biopic on Stalin they probably assumed it would make us hate him
Instead we all thought he was cool, especially when he put his cigar out on that guy
