      No, the Russians were the good guys in WWII, everyone who fought them were bad and Nazis or Nazi-adjacent. This is basic Hexbear 101.

      The Russians were just spreading worker solidarity.

        The Russians weren’t exactly the food guys. They helped with the invasion of Poland and split it with the Nazis. After Hitler marched into Russia they turned into “the good guys” but weren’t from the beginning.

          They didn’t turn into any kind of “good guy”. They took all of eastern Europe from the Nazis and kept it for themselves, ruling it just as brutally until the dissolution of the USSR. They were entirely out for themselves and didn’t do anything for justice or the good of the conquered nations.

        No, the Russians were the good guys in WWII,

        The Russians were definitely not the good guys in WW2. They happened to end up fighting the same guys the Allies were, but that’s it.
