The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was not societ “collaboration” with the Nazis. It was a self-preserving, non-aggression treaty between a rising fascist empire hell-bent on destroying workers movements like communism as all fascists are and a young workers movement that had been besieged since it’s inception. It gave them the time they needed to industrialize and prepare for the inevitable war with the Germans which they sacrificed so much for. 80% of Nazis were killed by the red army and 27 million soviets died for it.
Calling that pact collaboration is incredibly direspectful to their history
Yup. I hate historical revisionism. The pact was strategic, not a tacit approval of Nazism.
Even if you view it from the German point of view, it was the same. Hitler didn’t suddenly like Communism for a short while. He had to build up his forces for invasion.

Yeah territory definitely has no strategic value when you are preparing for war against your largest ideological enemy 💀
I never said it was great, just that you were severely misrepresenting it

I blocked mistahbenny. There’s no point talking to them. They’ve already made up their mind on the matter.
Ah, I haven’t encountered them before
