Explanation: The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact was a ‘non-aggression’ pact between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany which outlined carving up Eastern Europe between the two polities. In accordance with the pact, the Soviet Union invaded Poland with Nazi Germany in 1939.
Soviet apologists often claim that it was ‘just’ a non-aggression pact, which raises the question why the fuck they were assisting Nazi Germany genocide Poland, and why the pact involved carving up the Baltic states. The Soviets would go on to supply Nazi Germany with important war materiel until 1941, when the Nazis invaded the Soviet Union.
The fun part about these posts is guessing whether it’ll be a tankie apologia magnet or too spicy for them to even try. I’m guessing the latter but I’ve been surprised before.

I think most of the usual suspects can no longer show up here, though they might surprise me.
I’ll keep an eye on the historymemes post then, unless there’s a similar rule there.
Similar, though not same, rule there. Tankies there are banned if they express atrocity denial or spread misinformation.
