Not just the US, though Nazi soldiers intentionally tried to end up as US POWs rather than anything else, and avoided being Soviet POWs rather than anything else.

Not just the US

Yeah, their Western vassal states also, and areas under its neocolonial sway.

Nazis were afraid of the Soviets because the Red Army knew there was only one way to deal with facsists. Unlike the US who valued fascists and utilized them extensively during the cold war to fight against socialist movements particularly in Latin America and Africa.

Though it is very on brand for a pro-US clown to stamd up for their pet fascists

yeah because they treated them like fucking kings and not the monsters they were, because there is no ideological difference between amerikkka and nazi germany, the only difference is that germany tried to genocide people who were too close to white for other europeans to not give a shit.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

Correct. Death to Amerikkka.

I hope Isildur's heir returns to bring communism to save the West from the US

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Doesn't work because Sauron didn't get all his ideas from Isildur's Jim Crow society.

Actually the USSR wanted to cooperate with Nazi Germany. The only problem was them invading the USSR. You cannot just bend the facts.

Actually, the USSR repeatedly tried to form an alliance with western powers against nazi Germany. You cannot just bend the facts.

Why would the Communists want to ally with the most rabid and violent anticommunists on the planet?
