Part of the reason for appeasement in the 1930’s is because Chamberlain wanted to form an anti-communist bloc with Nazi Germany and France

They’re the first ones to have liberated the camps

Russia's Lavrov says Russia ready to expand war aims

Oh dear. Let's hope the long range weapons can hold this off

Precisely why we should not repeat this horrible lapse in judgment and take out Russian fascism at first signs

By arming other fascists? European countries can’t even contain their own fascist blocs

Europe and Ukraine are way less fascist than Russia and it isnt even close. Ukrainian azov guys are mostly dead now. Youre just clutching at straws and beating the dead horse with this s***. Wars been going on since February.

Now Putin shaggers are going to have to revise their talking points seeing as though the Russians won't Zaporizhia and Kherson too

Really about liberating Donbass isn't it

Key Points:

-Russians probably have no choice but to aim for those areas now and try get them fast as possible

-if Russia was to dig in and hold onto Donbass, new long range arms give to ukraine mean the Ukrainians can just bombard them relentlessly and begin to win by attrition

-probably always wanted those provinces, just have to get there faster now

My predictions:

Once Donbass and maybe Zaporizhia, Kherson and even Kharkhiv are taken, Russia holds bullshit sham referendums at gunpoints where these regions claim to want to join Russia.

Then the russians say any attack or attempt to retake them is an attack on russia.

Then UN Peacekeepers pour in. Russian useful idiot politicians in the West on both the Left and Right start with their appeasement 'we love Ukraine but bad peace is better than good war'

Germans cave. God forbid their precious factories have a few quiet years.

Russia takes over Georgia 2 years later to test western resolve.

If the west doesnt back Georgia, then Russia resumes conquest of Ukraine, ends up taking Lviv

Orcs just f*** off

The Russians were for anything the Nazis were that against. Stalin probably didn't really care about the Jews but your average everyday Russian wanted to end the atrocities against their people no matter what religion and get this s*** over with.

Soviets and Nazis were both f***ing awful but the latter were awful by design, the former were awful as a bug

the first three wont happen for at least another couple of years, dunno how many but unless significant gains are made by either side this wont be over this or next year

the entire world is past the point of keeping up with the conflict so there's no reason to end it quickly anyways

A lot of Europe was anti-semitic back then but there was no one country that was completely anti-semitic until the Nazis made one and there were more Jews in Russia than anywhere

Don’t forget that the USSR stopped imperial Russia’s antisemitic pogroms that killed tens of thousands of Jews

Bullshit, communism leads to mass murder everywhere, it's not a bug. Stop equivocating to these tankies.

Yea, that's true. doesn't in anyway contradict what I said though

This contradicts your own point. Imperial Russia conducting pograms proves my point. They didn’t stop hating Jews because of muh revolution. Y’all need to learn the distinction between the people and the state

Communism in itself has nothing to do with mass murder. Authoritarian regimes do

Implying capitalism doesn’t? The US and Europe was responsible for supporting multiple genocides across the third world

The state putting in policy that is anti racist eventually leads to a population that is also such.

Yeah all authoritarian regimes will culminate in atrocities

Just some of them have atrocities as an end goal (nazism) instead of an unforeseen side effect (the soviet union)

We already knew that wasn't the case when they tried to take Kiev. Regime change was their goal, just took advantage of the sentiment among people in the Donbas

Ehhh

Never said when
