Soviet counter attack was settler colonialism is the dumbest take ive seen since the last one

To paraphrasematt-jokerfied

This is the stupidest take in world history, a record that will be broken by every subsequent day in world history.

Ive seen it a few times but adding the white genocide twist to it is something I haven't sent in ages

Stalin was a non white central asian settler in Europe who slaughtered millions of white Europeans

waow-based

Pure projection in an attempt to cover up what the Germans were planning on doing

Stalin was literally Caucasian.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Stalin was considered non-white in his day, Georgians were called "black" and "swarthy" and "asiatic"

[–] ComradeEchidna@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For reference of the opinions of the times, Trotsky said this:

THE late Leonid Krassin, old revolutionist, eminent engineer, brilliant Soviet diplomat and, above all, intelligent human being, was the first, if I am not mistaken, to call Stalin an “Asiatic”. In saying that, he had in mind no problematical racial attributes, but rather that blending of grit, shrewdness, craftiness and cruelty which has been considered characteristic of the statesmen of Asia. Bukharin subsequently simplified the appellation, calling Stalin “Genghis Khan,” manifestly in order to draw attention to his cruelty, which has developed into brutality. Stalin himself, in conversation with a Japanese journalist, once called himself an “Asiatic,” not in the old but rather in the new sense of the word: with that personal allusion he wished to hint at the existence of common interests between the U.S.S.R. and Japan as against the imperialistic West. Contemplating the term “Asiatic” from a scientific point of view, we must admit that in this instance it is but partially correct. Geographically, the Caucasus, especially Transcaucasia, is undoubtedly a continuation of Asia. The Georgians, however, in contradistinction from the Mongolian Azerbaijanians, belong to the so-called Mediterranean, European race. Thus Stalin was not exact when he called himself an Asiatic. But geography, ethnography and anthropology are not all that matters; history looms larger.

Trotsky and being a goddam moron, name a more iconic duo

Yeah I'm pretty sure Krassin and Bukharin are being racist AF. Just thought it was a good source about what people thought/said at the time, including Troskey (Why Stalin is not Asian 1/? a thread).

"white" is just a bunch of mixed race people who turned really pale due to eating a mostly lactovegetarian diet in the darkest place in the world

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Georgia is in Europe (the power of Orientalism, innit)... also, by indigenous white Europeans, they meant Nazi and Fascist collaborators...?

Projection again (tell me again who wanted lebensraum?) ...

[–] HiImThomasPynchon@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not meant to? It's meant to frame Europeans as an even more cartoonish level of bloodthirsty imperialists.

[–] doubtingtammy@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

That explains the whoosh I heard

Europe belongs to er...the wild mosses and such. Everything else is some kind of Afro Asiatic migrant

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Are the sheeple capable of anything besides smart-alecky wordplay?

It's not genocide IF YOU'RE BEING PUNISHED FOR PREVIOUS CRIMES! I know thinking isn't their strong point, but oh my God...

That isn't a new take, but one i didn't hear in a while since new layers of white genocide conspiracy are piling up upon old ones.

YOU MISUNDERSTOOD THE ORIGINAL PICTURE

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Woops, my bad. I'm too used to people calling Stalin a genocidal maniac

[–] Hello_Kitty_enjoyer@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

the Aryans were non-white central asian settlers who slaughtered millions of indigenous Europeans but somehow it's only bad now

I THINK YOU ARE MISUNDERSTANDING THE ORIGINAL PICTURE

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I must not be online enough

What is it? I was of the impression, given the context, that it was placing some doubtlessly stupid lie that Stalin somehow killed more indigenous Europeans (or whatever) than Hitler, and was thus trying to minimize Hitler's atrocities by contrast.

[–] GunslingerSky@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Think that the image is a height thing. Like Hitler being 0.7 meters because he's dead and the height would be his gravestone, Stalin's actual height, and Mussolini's height off the ground while his body was hanged
