They saved fuck-all.
Shithole USSR was as imperialist as shithole russia is now. Only seek to occupy land, rape and deport people, and leave nothing but ruin behind.
Somehow a lot of Lemmy tends to forget about how the deal USSR made with Nazi Germany to divide and split Europe amongst themselves? And only fought Nazis to defend their occupied lands.
source: trust me bro
Thanks for raising your hand, but after glancing at your profile, you're getting a tag.
I am not a blind defender of every ml experiment but you are a liberal bro, you are the probelm. You people kill millions im global south and bitch about human rights in your country lol.
Wat
What are you even talking about, MrSmith? The Nazis marched all the way from Berlin and took everything on the way to the USSR and the USSR marched all the way to Berlin as they crushed 80% of the Nazi forces and when they were done the US and UK were very clear that they had no problem with more Nazis - openly former Nazi officials were put in charge of West Germany, openly former Nazi officers were put in charge of NATO, and NATO supported Nazi collaborators throughout all of Europe. The USSR had the choice of either releasing the totally destroyed territories to their own devices while the West actively fomented a Nazi resurgence or they had to attempt to rebuild what the war destroyed and actively prevent the still existing Nazi threat from re-emerging and invading Russia yet again.
There is absolutely nothing in any of the primary sources to suggest that the USSR was pursuing active imperialism - not in the philosophy, not in the rhetoric, not in the meeting minutes, not in the letters, nothing.
Ok ml bro.
I don't read slop
