It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

That's what I don't get, right. The USSR tried to create alliances with the French and the British to address the German threat, but Stalin was basically ignored because Chamberlain and Lebrun were confident that Hitler couldn't possibly do anything bad (and they were making so much money so things were going well).
Hitler's Master Plan literally involved the genocide of Eastern Slavs.
How did that turn into "the USSR and Nazi Germany were collaborators?"
They were also hoping that the Germans were able to quickly invade Russia and wipe everyone out and eliminating the communist menace.
Is that an established motivation for the French/British stonewalling of Stalin? If so, then fuck... That puts things in an entirely different light. I thought that France and Britain were simply operating out of self-interest.
I’m not sure about France. But the US and Britain were definitely waiting for the Nazis to take care of Russia and leave the rest of the west alone
