I installed birdsite recently and actually saw tankies for the first time in my life.
Sweet Krolm, the Rat God, what bullshit do they post.
Shit like "If it was a soviet 'crime' that means it wasn't a crime at all"
You should hear what they have to say about the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. Apparently failing to stop the nazis is worse than actively assisting them in conquering and oppressing Poland.
You don't think they made up for it a little with 8 million+ dead soldiers fighting the Nazis? And ya kno, getting to Berlin first and ending the European theater of WWII?
No? What the fuck? That's not how morality works. Nothing about the Soviet Union's values or how they made decisions changed, as evidenced by them continuing to engage in oppression and imperialist aggression right up until basically the day they collapsed.
The soviet people and the soviet government are not the same thing. What is it with nationalists equating the state with the people subjected to it?
ohhhh of course! how silly of us! I'm sure all the queers who lost their lives to the Soviets feel sooooo much better in their graves knowing that. tell you what, why don't you dig some up, tell them what you just said, and see how they react. what's that? they can't reply? because they're dead? well who would have fucking thought. moron
Fun fact: Mentioning the Nazi-Soviet pact is a Federal crime in Russia today.
