You mean the peace treaty he signed with Hitler to stall for time and build weapons after France and Britain refused to join forces with him to fight Hitler.

Have you considered asking yourself why France and Britain refused?

It is quite astounding to blame Stalin, the guy who basically fought Hitler all by himself, for the Holocaust.

Stalin's actions killed 7-20 million people, intellectuals, minorities, and poor people. At least a million of which were deliberate deaths. People who defend that for political expedience are unquestionably misinformed or evil, take your pick. My family was fleeing for their lives.

I am all for some form of socialism, defending evil people is not how you get it.

Damn, that's a suspiciously wide range.

Does it include Nazi soldiers killed by the red army in world war two? (Spoilers: yes)

This person is mad about dead Nazis

My ancestors were Jewish, they were chased out under threat of death. Absolutely repugnant to claim I'm mad about dead Nazis in that context.

Seems like it's more repugnant for you to be condemning the USSR for killing Nazis
