      This is basically just propaganda speak, for “my side can’t do bad things, only your side can”

      No it’s the historical record of what actually happened. The fact you don’t like it and wish all countries and systems were equally bad when it comes to fascism doesn’t change that. The USSR for it’s many faults was absolutely antifascist pre, during and post war.

      You are exhausting. So arrogant and so utterly wrong. You should be embarrassed I’m surprised the embarrassment hasn’t won out and stopped you from spouting nonsense at least for a bit but I suppose you’re still in the denial phase.

          You are conveniently omitting the fact that the Soviet Union had nearly identical programs running in parallel to the US.

          But they weren’t identical that’s the whole point I’m making please actually read what I said. I know reading might be hard but you are just wasting your time typing nonsense because you seemingly can’t grasp what I’m saying

          In this case it’s cartoonishly obvious by the fact that your argument is so completely one-sided.

          In the case of the Nazis and fascism reality was “cartoonishly onesided”. Again as I said the USSR for its many faults was absolutely antifascist whereas the US/Europe were categorically not. Look into operation gladio. Look into the history of Ford and IBM with regards to the Nazis not just pre war but during the war. Look at the difference between operation Paperclip and Osoaviakhim.

          If you think an accurate portrayal of reality is propaganda you really should do some introspection on what you believe, where you learned it etc. You have been embarrassingly wrong in basically every comment I’ve seen.

            I hadn’t known this about how the Soviets treated Nazis before and after the war. It’s good to learn this and I really enjoy seeing your analysis and rebuttals.

      If historical record sounds like the soviets were overwhelmingly better than the west, then that’s just your evaluation of the actual historical record. That’s what happened, it isn’t because soviets good and US bad, it’s from fundamental differences in how fascism is treated by communists vs. by liberals.
