    To be fair, just because somebody said something good/reasonable, it doesn’t necessarily mean they walked the talk. You can probably find a good quote from any evil dictator.

      There are a fair amount of Hitler quotes that sound reasonable. Until you zoom out and look at the everything else, anyway.

        You like Nazis? You are literally comparing the person who lead the Holocaust to the person who saved the world from the Nazis

          Dude Stalin helped the nazis take Poland, then when Hitler turned on the USSR, he threw 20 million soviets into the meat grinder. All to have Eisenhower coax a Nazi surrender, which made Stalin super butthurt and demand a new surrender the next day.

          The soviets were responsible for 3/4 German military deaths. They kicked ass. Stalin did not.

            Oh yeah, preventing genocide of your people by the Germans is really just throwing people to the meat grinder. Poland was aggressive towards the Ukrainian SSR and needed taken care of. The Nazis were irrelevant in that regard

              Stalin did that when he was ignoring his generals telling him that the Germans were going to invade, then WHEN THEY WERE ACTIVELY INVADING? Because he LIKED HITLER and THOUGHT HIS FRIEND WOULDN’T BETRAY HIM?

              THAT Stalin?

                You clearly know nothing about this whatsoever. If you somehow think Stalin likes Hitler then you must be drunk or somthing

                    Care to cite where Stalin “literally talked about it”? Also, maybe avoid using obviously ableist terms
