Is it just "the soviets were good guys in ww2 so they have to have been kinda good guys here too"?

the soviets tried to help a progressive régime, while the us and China propped up the most reactionary forces they could get their hands on, with the yanks later invading, in order to get control of the opium trade. definitely a "both sides bad" situation...

and the reason i brought up ww2 was because fascists and their sympathizers often resort to pointing fingers towards various real or imagined allied atrocities, in order to draw false equivalence, completely ignoring that the orders of magnitude of, as well as the ideological reasons for those actions make them completely incomparable! this is exactly what you and other liberals are doing with regards to afghanistan ("i dont care which one technically committed less war crimes"). interestingly, you dont seem as concerned with the warlords atrocities, which were much more numerous and vile than soviet violations
