Maybe bordiga-despair had a point about Popular Fronts…

In seriousness, I do find this whole thing started by D*stiny pretty telling about how eagerly libs just copy-paste low-hanging “gotcha”s, especially since they feel threatened by an increased ”tankie” presence on social media. Anything to surprises that feeling emanating from cognitive dissonance a bit longer.

There’s no real honest conversation to be had with people who will use anything and everything to prove the USSR was Red Nazi Germany while also dismissing appeasement and outright support from the capitalist world (as well as their own imperial ventures) as oopsies.

Poland and Finland in particular being brought up is also pretty hilarious since both were right wing illiberal regimes engaged in their own “nation-building” efforts.

    The Polish communists at that time were being put to jail and hard labor, because we were a proto fascist society. That’s what was fucking happening, class struggle.
