Explanation

The losses of Germany on the eastern front are widely believed to be the most significant factor in defeating Nazi Germany and the USSR won the battle of Berlin, the final battle before the German capitulation. Thus Europe widely believed (for a good reason) that the USSR was the main contributor in defeating Germany. With the cold war the perception of the USSR became a lot worse in western countries like France and with increasing anti-USSR sentiment the view flipped to viewing the USA as the deciding factor. The USSR (and the Russian Federation today, even if its government is very anti USSR) viewed itself as the most important force in defeating Germany, especially because the USSR had the biggest amount of deaths. It is worth noting that the USSR was at least commercially allied with Nazi Germany until June 22, 1941 and there was an agreement between the nations on which parts of Europe each could invade and which where reserved for the other.

            Are you dumb? I am not even american not even european and I dont give a flying fuck whethsr you are ruled by a black hating pedophile or a child killer with lgbt flag, becauase for us suffering is same no matter who rules your fucking genocidal country.

            Stalin did Holodomor? Read history ffs. Who is currently starving cuba? Who killed thousands of people in vietnam? Afghanistan Libya Iraq Syria Chile now Venezuela Who is funding israel to bomb babies in gaza? Who meddled into korean civil war wiping off 20% of their population?

            These wars and there consequences are a thousand times more than whatever stalin ever did.

            This is the reason I hate liberals, fuckers are ao ignorant and entitled like we care whether the orange man rules you, go to hell and stop bombing innocent civilians fuck you.
