Russia joined Nazi Germany in an alliance during WW2.

Russia is murdering civilians without pause and you are okay with this.

Your brand of anarchy is garbage.

Tilting at a strawman only impresses fools, and only liars pretend to believe a non-aggression pact is an alliance, but feel free to prove what no legitimate historian has ever claimed.

Fun Fact btw, Mr. Civilian Casualties:

There have been 12,000 civilian deaths in Ukraine so far (not that one is justified).

How many has Israel killed in a year?

How many died in Iraq and Afghanistan?

How many died because Finland decided to actually ally with fucking Nazis in 1940 and your tiny little brain can’t comprehend there is literally no justification for that possible?

Seems like you couldn’t give less of a shit about “murdering civilians without pause” when it’s your tribe doing it.

What is it you would call coordinating military efforts against a common foe?

It would seem it has a different name when the Finns and the Nazis do it than when the Soviets and the Nazis do it.

The Soviets didn’t coordinate shit in Poland lol (they couldn’t even coordinate among themselves after Stalin murdered their officer corps), the red and black fascists just agreed on temporary spheres of influence. France, Spain, Britain, etc all did similar things when jockeying over colonial possessions at various points, that doesn’t mean by itself they were allies in any meaningful meaning of the word. If they were actual allies we’d know because Britain would have been overwhelmed in the air war immediately and troops would have landed in England.

The Tripartite Pact was an alliance, the black fascists agreed on mutual defense terms. Molotov-Ribbentrop was painting new lines on a map and agreeing on trade and, as mentioned, literally no credible experts view it otherwise.

Was Stalin staging Soviet airplanes in German territory? Massing Soviet troops in Axis territory anywhere to threaten their neighbors? No? Lending the Luftwaffe planes?
