What would you rather I use? It is a great way of citing a bunch of secondary sources and viewpoints without having to battle the character limit. It is also far more accessible compared to most scholarly sources while still maintaining integrity in the most critical areas.

Okay so clearly this has devolved into unconstructive babbling so I will just conclude with this: First of all, I am no fan of the western powers for a number of reasons including the fact that I am a Slav and am well aware of how they have constantly denigrated us. Secondly, please educate yourself

It is the historical consensus that Stalin's economic policy was the predominant cause of Holodomor (Andriewsky, 2015). Even people who disagree on its intentionality agree on this (Rozenas et al, 2019).

Douglas Tottle is a Soviet apologist and even he did not deny the contribution of Soviet economic policy to the 1930-33 famine. His work was created in close collaboration with Soviet diplomats and mostly exists to argue that the Holodomor was unintentional.

Reading comprehension, my friend, is a skill you might want to work on before citing any literature. I never said they were Nazis, in fact I specifically said this was during the USSR's time on the side of the axis. All these POWs were Polish officials, soldiers, and intellectuals.

His "industrialization programs" caused some of the most horrific famines in living memory. The Holdomor famine killed between 3.5 and 10 MILLION people in Ukraine alone. It was a DIRECT (though debatably intentional) cause of the industrialization policies of the first five-year plan.

Whether or not it was a genocide is still up to debate (though it certainly would've been convenient for soviet authorities). The fact that it was man-made and a result of Stalin's policies is the historical consensus. Therefore, Stalin is absolutely to blame. Also he tried to cover it up not fix it

Okay, so? This doesn't change the fact that he willingly invaded Poland and others. In fact, Stalin made a point of ceasing to recognize Poland as a country before he invaded. He then executed 10s of thousands of POWs and raped and pillaged half of E. Europe.

He literally helped Hitler take over Poland. He is responsible for murdering tens of thousands in mass executions. Stalin was not a hero, nor was he even an okay person. He was a war criminal, tyrant, and mass murderer.

While Stalin did later play a significant role in defeating the Nazis, they only did so after Hitler backstabbed them. And keep in mind, this is not even mentioning the horrific actions of Stalin's regime after the war (Holodomor, etc).
Stalin was a war criminal, a tyrant, and a mass murderer.

During Soviet occupation of Poland, which lasted until after the end of the war, there was widespread oppression that was borderline genocidal in its scope. The Katyn Massacre saw the the systematic execution of over 22,000 Polish POWs by the Red Army. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_...

This is blatant historical revisionism. In 1939, Hitler and Stalin signed the Molotov–Ribbentrop Non-Aggression Pact which divided Eastern Europe up into spheres of influence. Not even a month later, Stalin invades Poland and the Baltics, aiding the Germans in their merciless conquest.

Okay I have been sorting through my old pixel art and I struck gold. Apparent someone had started a chain of people adding different pride flags to this one canvas and I decided to remix and add the Slovenian flag. I don't even remember having awareness of this I think I was just very patriotic lol
