Yes, I know...Russia fought along side the allied forces during world war 2. I've actually said that many times....not sure if I said it on lemmy, but I know I've brought it up multiple times on reddit

And yet you're trying to use the Nazis killed by the Red Army as a way to condemn Stalin

[–] EmperorHenry@discuss.tchncs.de -3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nope. I'm not trying to use anything for anything.

We can condemn all fascist dictators equally. There's no reason to put them all on a tier list to see which ones are worse than others. It's an objective fact that Mao and Stalin each...individually not collectively...killed way more people than Hitler did. Every member of the axis forces was bad, I never said otherwise. people in this thread straw-manned me and claimed I said that though....even if it was only through an implication

No, it's objectively a lie, one told by people trying to downplay the Holocaust. Nobody who actually condemns fascist dictators would try and use Nazi soldiers killed by the Red army as a point AGAINST Stalin.
