    if the west weren’t actively trying to sabotage the Soviets, making deals with Nazi Germany and hoping they’d take care of the USSR then things would have gone much better.

    Also the aid was fuck all and came extremely late. The Soviets managed to beat Nazi Germany because they rabidly developed their entire industries. They put the most work and lost 27~ million people as a result, but they were the ones to beat the Nazis. Would have gone much better, but you know. The west were allied with the fascists until they were shocked that Nazis would attack white people too.

    Shame the west then decided to rescue a lot of high ranking Nazi officials and had them be the founding leaders of NATO and EU. Who decided to enact a “cold war” despite the fact that after such a devastating war, the Soviets had NO reason to ever be aggressive, unlike the west, who could never forgive the USSR for liberating Europe from the Nazis.

        Funny you forgot how the entire west allied with the Nazis and made deals with them long before the USSR ever even did. Funny how the land the Soviets “took over” from Poland was originally part of Czechoslovakia/Lithuania/Ukraine

        Funny how the USSR tried to make a pact with Western countries to try and stop the Nazis long before WW2 even started. How Winston Churchill sympathized with Hitler and loved his book; Mein Kampf.

        More information how much the west allied with the Nazis, to the point of rescuing a bunch of them to have high-ranking positions and cushy lifestyle : https://lemmy.ml/comment/28138093

                Did you even notice that your rebuttal to a comment saying that the US “won the war” (they didn’t, group effort)

                Group effort after actively allying with Nazis and sabotaging the USSR?

                then responded to me for pointing out how they didn’t by going on about how “the West” supported the Nazis (a thing the USSR also did)

                Again, the Soviets did not support the Nazis. They also executed a fuckton of high-ranking Nazis after the war, which Winston Churchill was vehemently opposed to.

                Edit since you linked Operation Paperclip: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Osoaviakhim?wprov=sfla1

                lol getting germans and low-ranking nazis to extract their work as reparations is not even remotely on the same level as to what Amerika did. They were also under constant surveillance.

                They also did not give the Nazis a cushy life and fame like the Amerikans did.

                    Aww, what a good little Ruzzian you are.

                    Look, a scratched liberal is bleeding like a fascist. I’m not even a Russian but I know how you are frothing with rage and unable to cope that the USSR liberated Europe from Nazi Germany. You guys are still unable to forgive them for that.
