Yeah, and he went away not because they voted him out but thanks to Soviet weapons.

Who allied up with the Nazis to invade Poland?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

IBM and Standard Oil

Soviets were the only ones who truly supported the Spanish democracy against the fascist. Every other country, including Poland, turned their back to us while the Luffwaffle was bombing our citizens.

Soviets were the only ones who truly supported the Spanish democracy against the fascist.

Curious that their backstabbing the Spanish republicans was instrumental in losing the Spanish Civil War for the republican side. Strange kind of support.

For Whom The Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemmingway is set during this period. Just a side note.

[–] Heartwotalk@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 5 days ago (4 children)

Homage to Catalonia by George Orwell would also be a good read for someone looking favorably on the Soviets during the Spanish Civil War.

Land Lease is just a western conspiracy!

[–] Raab@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

It's Lend-Lease...

[–] ssj2marx@lemmy.ml -3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

They did do 80% of the fighting, though. So lets not give America too much credit.

[–] match@pawb.social 5 points 5 days ago

They did 80% of the dying, the current Ukraine war should be evidence that Russia's force multiplier is fractional

And only stole most of east Germany's infrastructure.

[–] ssj2marx@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

East Germany paid war reparations to the Soviets while rebuilding itself into an industrial powerhouse - the people who "stole most of East Germany's infrastructure" were the West German capitalists after reunification, when the whole region was forcibly de-industrialized and left a shadow of its former self that still hasn't fully recovered over thirty years later.

I read Stasi State or Socialist Paradise some years ago, I recommend it for anyone interested in a history of East Germany that isn't written by West German propagandists.
