Zelensky’s former spokesperson. clown

Both China (20+ million people lost) and Vietnam suffered heavily under Japanese occupation, and Kazakhstan (like Ukraine) was literally part of the USSR. Gotta love how these pathetic fascists attempt to rewrite history. pit

    Ahhh yes, the country that… checks notes …was the majority of ground battles for the Pacific Theater? I fucking hate this revisionist bullshit. You’ll hear libs who think Russia was part of the Axis, completely unaware of Churchill’s plans for Operation Unthinkable.

        To expand on the other post, Churchill wanted to re-arm the Germans and invade the Soviet Union immediately after WWII, with help from Italy, the US, and France. After Hiroshima and Nagasaki, he insisted invading using nuclear weapons while the Soviets were still recovering.

        This is what got him removed from office. People were tired of war after two decades of world wars and Churchill wanted to go start a third one. It was called “unthinkable” for a reason. Even against nukes, the Soviets likely wouldn’t throw their hands up. They still had a large, experienced military with tons of fortifications.

        His reputation has since been whitewashed, especially his support for fascism. Brits and liberals overseas look at him with nostalgia as a great leader, ignoring his politics before and after the war.
