        “B-buh the USSR also used Nazi scientists in their military efforts!!”

        Yes. And they were basically on house arrest the whole time too.

        “Well that sounds like a way of sugar-coating the fact that they were essentially forced labour for the USSR!!”

        Good. The Nazi scientists could have served multiple lifetimes worth of forced labour and they still wouldn’t have repaid their debt to humanity from all the atrocities that they were accessories to.

          Are you actually proud of your country’s efforts to fight the nazis? Because your leaders aren’t. They regret their country’s efforts at fighting the Nazis, they regretted it immediately after WW2 ended and they still regret it today. They recruited nazi spies, nazi scientists, they placed nazis in positions of power in West Germany, they gave them positions of power in early NATO even. In fact, they went as far as to immediately start funding nazi militias in Soviet aligned Europe after the war ended, google operation Bloodstone. And that was just the start of US collaboration and funding of far right groups. The US funded the Contras, the Mujahideen, Al-qaeda, right wing insurgents in every continent of the world. All because Stalin saved the world from fascism and your heroes will never forgive him for it.

      A fantastic example of the kind of “support” you can expect from the US. Everything that was given away actually came with a price tag and the receiving countries had to pay it all back, with interest. Even after America dismantled the USSR, they still expected Russia to pick up the tab (and it did, repaying the debt in 2006).

      Imagine it: you’re literally fighting a world war against literally the Nazis, and the most assistance that America can give you is a fuckin loan. And as thank you for saving the world against the literal Nazis, the US graciously holds this debt over your head for decades to come. Your wartorn country that suffered immeasurable loss of life and immense infrastructural damage is now obligated to pay the country that did not.
