    If I’m an armchair general, then so was Marx, who said the same things I’m saying, and so was the USSR’s own People’s Commissar of Internal Affairs, Maxim Litvinov. People were telling Stalin that Germany was a threat, and that worldwide communism was required. Stalin ignored communist theory and he ignored members of his own government. And what did his Russia actually do in the end? It signed trade agreements from 1935 to 1939, supplying Hitler with raw materials for the Nazi war machine.

    Stalin was an incompetent fool when it came to foreign policy with the Nazis. If he’d had a shred of common decency, he would have tried to do something about the holocaust OTHER THAN helping the Nazis.

      There’s Marxists today is inside and outside of China recognizing that the US is a threat to China and that the US is supporting a genocide in Palestine. China should just go ahead and nuke the US now, otherwise they are helping the US to commit and support it’s atrocities, right?
