France and Britain slept with the enemy. Russia saw the writing on the wall and tried to prevent it.
Russia was the main party fighting ww2. France instantly capitulated to the Nazis.
I get that you are a liberal but accurately retelling ww2 is not riding Stalin. Stalin made plenty stupid moves but mostly after the war. The only reason the West fought the Nazis is because they finally came for them.
France fought back a little and then hit ff15 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armistice_of_22_June_1940
Hiter hated communists. The reason France Belgium and the Netherlands capitulated was because the majority of their population was not the Nazi target. The USSR however was.
At least when you are wrong try to not load your comments with insults. I guess you are trying to find a reason to get banned while libposting so you can make a whine post about it on lib communities and pretend you got banned for libposting instead being a toxic turd.
Must be sad when all you can do is ragepost because you have no arguments.
Ya huh, you delete everything and say I have no argument because you can't argue in earnest against facts.
Maybe if you didn’t spew insults, your arguments & facts wouldn’t get removed.
The first to call someone a name was the other person but do go on.
I don't think they said or even implied that you are a dipshit.
Also, saying they had more dead bcs of their "terrible industry" is a weird way to shame a very underdeveloped nation (and if Russia capitulated Germany would have solidified the power over Europe). And akin to implying other countries could have contribute only slightly more bodies & with their "better industries" end WWII sooner.
I'm not a liberal or a dipshit, brush up on your reading comprehension though that might honestly explain some of what goes on here.
Neat edit I can do that too.
I didn't diminish their part in the war, I'm just not willing to overinflate it. Similarly I didn't say they contributed less because they just threw bodies at a wall, you're the only one implying that and it's an absurd thing to do and I'll remind you Russia did capitulate dumb dumb, they just changed their mind when it was clear they weren't going to get what they wanted or if the deal.
I agree that it's always the "dipshits" and the "dumb dumbs" that make it weird.
Weird-weird, not sexy weird.
