Was this lecture aimed at me or someone else?
definitely aimed at you, but also edifying for anyone who might think the USA was solidly on the side of good during the war. The US entered the war in 41, but they refused Stalin's repeated requests to open a second front against Germany. They went to north africa first and then italy, waiting until the German eastern front had nearly collapsed before landing in Normandy. The US was essentially racing against the red army, trying to prevent the soviet union from liberating the entirety of europe under the banner of liberation for humankind. Once the US reached Germany and peace began, the US almost immediately formed NATO and appointed Nazi war criminals into its upper ranks while putting nazi war ciminals in charge of west germany. The yankee government is bad and always has been. throughout all of its history it only has made good choices when it has been dragged kicking and screaming.
two fucking years late because they were too cozy with the nazis
4 years; the war started in 1937 with Japan's invasion of China.
Do you have any specific book recommendations on this?
Sorry that the Soviets prevented the West from putting as many Nazis in charge of Germany as you would have wanted.
Imagine hearing someone talk like this in irl...blindly screeching tankie as if anyone gives af
Not Mad
Lol. Get shat on, imperialist.
Our own kind is the workers of the world, the voiceless and the oppressed. And together we are strong.
With whom are you "together," tankie? The workers that have been rejecting you since Kronstadt?
This may come as a surprise to you, but the world isn't just the west.
What's the matter? Snorting copium because all the anti-colonialist movements in the 3rd world only paid lip service to your garbage ideology?
You're making zero sense here.
Kinda sounds like you want the people to lose just so you can keep going "tankies bad" and score imaginery internet points.
The Reds beat the Nazis and liberals will never forgive them for it
TLDR... "Anyone that doesn't worship Stalin must be a liberal!"
Lol.
You clearly are you little shit
At this point, I'm amazed at any tankie that can even spell liberal... despite my low expectations, you still manage to mostly disappoint, though.
dude youre like a GTAV parody of a smug liberal twat, how can you be this painfully oblivious to your own assholery lol
