  • Check my other comment. The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, while it can be criticised, doesn’t mean shit in the grand context. All the other western european nations rushed to the negotiating table to break bread with the Nazis way sooner than the Soviets ever did.

    Besides that, if Germany even gave a realistic shit about Nazis nowadays they wouldn’t be supporting a genocide in Palestine, nor would they allow their beloved politicians to spew constant Nazi rhetoric in public, nor would they allow all the Nazis to join the police force, or the military, or authoritative institutions, nor would they allow all the German millionaires and billionaires that inherited Nazi money to further exist. You know, the ones whose beloved grandparents owned factories where they worked jewish slaves to death? Those ones. But sure, do tell me how Germany all of the sudden gives a shit about one single fascist country while continuing to support all the other fascists on the planet.


  • This is straight up insane. There have been straight up at least 5 other such pacts between Nazi Germany and all the other western allied countries, and yet no one seems to claim that those countries were “allies” and “best buds” with the Nazis. In fact, the Soviets were literally the last ones out of all the European allies to sign a non aggression treaty with the Nazis.

    Non Aggression pacts aside, to even go as far as to claim that these two nations were allies is even more insane than criticising the one singular pact itself. The Nazis were talking about “judeo bolshevism” for YEARS, spewing constant anti-soviet rhetoric, and publicly fantasising about invading and destroying the Soviet state. The other European allied nations even looked the other way when shit started to hit the fan because they deemed the nazis better than the communists.

    Just throwing the Molotov Ribbentrop pact out there shows that you know next to nothing about WW2 history. Now let’s take a look at all the other such pacts before the Molotov Ribbentrop one even happened:

    1. German–Polish Declaration of Non-Aggression - January 26, 1934
    2. Anti-Comintern Pact between Nazi Germany and Japan (not a western allied nation but a straight up anti communist pact) - November 25, 1936
    3. The Franco-German Declaration - December 6, 1938
    4. German–Danish Non-Aggression Pact - May 31, 1939
    5. German–Estonian Non-Aggression Pact - June 7, 1939
    6. German–Latvian Non-Aggression Pact - June 7, 1939
    7. Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact - 23 August 1939

    In between these “non aggression pacts” there are the following other treaties as well:

    1. Anglo-German Naval Agreement (1935): This agreement with the British allowed Germany the right to build a navy beyond the limits set by the Treaty of Versailles.
    2. Munich Agreement (September 1938): The British, French, and Italy agreed to concede the Sudetenland to Germany in exchange for a pledge of peace. WWII began one year later, when Germany invaded Poland.
    3. German-Romanian Economic Treaty (March 1939): This agreement established German control over most aspects of Romanian economy.

    But go on, do tell me how this one piece of fascist propaganda you keep spewing stands. The Molotov RIbbentrop pact is heralded by all the anti-communist organisations as this one single golden proof to equate the Soviet Union with Nazi Germany, whereas in the actual reality, the Soviet Union was the last nation to sit at the same table with the Nazis before the war started. All the other “democracy spreading nations” you love so much broke bread with the Nazis way sooner than the Soviets did.

    I stand by my words. Go pick up a book and get off your high horse.






  • This is insane. The Soviet Union had by far the biggest losses during WW2 in the fight against Nazism. Around eight to ten million soldiers died during the war, and if you add the civilian casualties on top of that, the estimates sit at around 24 million people. Many of those people were Russian and Belorussian. Let them mourn their dead. It doesn’t matter that the Russian ambassador is a prick or not. I think it speaks volumes when the country that started WW2 does shit like this and it’s not okay.

    Stop falling for the liberal trap that laws and bureaucracy will somehow magically save you from fascism. It won’t. This is just the start. They’re slowly warming you all up to it until it’s going to be too late. There’s no such thing as “This can’t happen here!”. It definitely can, and it definitely will if you don’t organise and stop it.
