      First of all that’s not true, and second of all most of them were Nazis.

      We have liberated them, and they will never forgive us for that. — Georgy Zhukov

        Yes, I know…Russia fought along side the allied forces during world war 2. I’ve actually said that many times…not sure if I said it on lemmy, but I know I’ve brought it up multiple times on reddit

          And yet you’re trying to use the Nazis killed by the Red Army as a way to condemn Stalin

            Nope. I’m not trying to use anything for anything.

            We can condemn all fascist dictators equally. There’s no reason to put them all on a tier list to see which ones are worse than others. It’s an objective fact that Mao and Stalin each…individually not collectively…killed way more people than Hitler did. Every member of the axis forces was bad, I never said otherwise. people in this thread straw-manned me and claimed I said that though…even if it was only through an implication

              No, it’s objectively a lie, one told by people trying to downplay the Holocaust. Nobody who actually condemns fascist dictators would try and use Nazi soldiers killed by the Red army as a point AGAINST Stalin.

        I didn’t deny anything the Nazis or any other Axis-force-member-nation did during World War 2.

        I’m simply saying Stalin isn’t exactly a good person to promote as any ideal to strive for

          Double genocide theory, including the lie that Stalin “killed more people than Hitler” is a form of Holocaust denial. Condemn Stalin all you like, but once you start repeating lies created by Nazis to downplay the Holocaust, you are holocaust denier

              Stop repeating neonazi lies and read the link I posted please. Andb yes, the idea that Stalin killed more than Hitler is a lie, one made up to downplay the Holocaust
