    Someone just kill that guy already. Just being a Nazi sympathizer should be a capital crime. It’s crazy that this wasn’t a rule started in the 40s.

    Fuck your personal rights to think how you want. If you’re thoughts include something about nachos and don’t also include massive doses of “nope”, you are a cancer to humanity and should be put down, preferably in a hilarious way. It should be rewarded, not penalized, legally speaking, if you can prove it.

    Kanye is way past everyone already knowing about his predilections, he should be too scared to be seen.

          Non aggression pacts are not the same as allying with the Nazis. The non aggression pact was necessary to delay the inevitable long enough to industrialise and build up a force to fight the Nazis largely alone as the western powers had continuously refused to form an anti nazi pact since 1933. The soviets were also the last major power to sign a non aggression pact with the Nazis. The USSR broke the nazi beast took the majority of the casualties and killed the majority of the Nazis.

          The USSR spent years trying to build an anti-Nazi alliance. 1933 they proposed collective security at the League of Nations. 1935 they signed mutual defense pacts with France and Czechoslovakia. Spring 1939 they sat in Moscow for months begging Britain and France for a real triple alliance. The West stalled. Refused to guarantee the Baltics. Refused to let the Red Army cross Poland to actually fight Hitler. Poland’s elite, more scared of workers than of Nazis, said no too and instead joined Hitler in attacking Czechoslovakia. The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact happened because liberals handed Hitler Eastern Europe rather than work with the soviets.

          When Soviet troops entered eastern Poland September 17 1939, the Polish state had already collapsed. Government fled to Romania September 15. Warsaw was burning. The army was broken. The lands the USSR moved into? Not Poland proper. Territories Poland had seized and occupied by force during the interwar period of 1919-1921 from Belarus, Ukraine, and Lithuania. Moving in to secure this land also saved millions from extermination.

          Out of curiosity would you have preferred the soviets cede all of Poland and it’s occupied territory to Nazis such that they could be exterminated?

          and felt really betrayed when the Nazis attacked them later.

          I’ve seen this nonsense multiple times I don’t know where it comes from but it’s so clearly untrue to anyone with even a passing understanding of the movement of the soviets from 1933, moving factories beyond the Urals, moving into a war economy, attempting over and over to get Europe to see the danger of the Nazis and do something.

      No, I would like it if he could visit Russia and go to museums and have a wee learning experience when he’s there, but of course the Russian stance on foreigners is extremely hardassed.
