      Fucking lmao I missed that

      That subreddit has a thread on that one up and boy howdy is it as shitty as you'd expect

      Well if our boys who were involuntarily conscripted to the Soviet side can be remembered then so can be the ones on nazi side. Though just memorizing the fallen without mentioning sides is probably better.

      They are not the same. How many fucking times...

      Pretty sure Soviet Russia and Nazi Germany were uncomfortably similar.

      +4.

      Every response pointing out that maybe the fascists who wanted to exterminate anyone not 'pure' enough was maybe a bit different from the USSR is getting hammered.

      You know, when :reddit-logo: went down hard recently I was hoping it was actually gonna die. What a shame.

        Sure is odd how Lithuania is still around today and not part of "Greater Russia" in that case.
