I have successfully confused and shut people up who say "the Soviet Union and nazi Germany invaded Poland together" by saying I agree that NATO should invade and conquer western Ukraine to reclaim what Poland lost.

That's an interesting way to short circuit a lib brain.

Axiom 1: All land belonging to Poland at any point in history is sacred (because the bad Soviets invaded them once)
Axiom 2: All land belonging to the Ukraine at any point in history is sacred (because the bad Russians invaded them once)

Then to whom does Eastern Galicia and Volhynia (western Ukraine) belong? It's been a part of both countries!

I think I short circuited a liberal brain when I told them about the Soviet-Polish war before WW2

They genuinely had no idea it happened.

If you wanna see, I made a map showing the "Polish" territories that the Soviets occupied in a previous post.

I made a brief summary post some months ago, it even includes a map of the so-called "Polish" territories that the Soviets invaded :)

I've been listening to Proles Pod, they have a new series of episodes

They're back!?

[–] vovchik_ilich@hexbear.net 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Were they ever gone? I started listening to them recently

Yeah the group had a falling out some time around 2020 IIRC

Edit: ~~Must have been 2021. I just checked their site and there is a three year gap between 2021-07-31 and 2024-03-11~~

Edit2: A reddit comment dated from 2020 talks about the split, so maybe it actually was 2020

A new episode came out a month or so ago [August 2020] about Romania. It was something they recorded a year ago. He spoke about things at the end of the episode, and said he's gonna put out one more that they recorded while still together.

"There is no free Poland without free Ukraine" - Józef Piłsudski (man who literally invaded Ukraine as soon as it gained independence first time ever)

This is the real billboard that was put up in 2022 in afaik entire country. This is the level of public discourse on Ukraine issue in Poland.
