Yeah. When your options are:
- die, and have your country destroyed
Or- fight alongside nazis to avoid dying
Unsurprisingly, you choose 2). Granted the brits probably would have helped if it were possible, but it wasnt.
what the fuck are you talking about, the soviets beat your ass twice and your nazi shit country is still fucking there. you keep saying the russians would have taken everything BUT THEY WON AND THEY DIDNT EVEN TAKE FINLAND.
just unbelievable amounts of imaginary worldbuilding, jesus christ.
also the very widespread cold war propaganda filling european heads that the soviets were just as bad as the nazis.
for example, the nazis murdered hundreds of thousands of hungarian civilians, while the soviets did not.
which is why the average hungarian will to this day insist that it was not liberation when the red army finally took budapest and chased the nazis out. even people who WOULD NOT EVEN BE ALIVE TODAY WITHOUT THE SOVIETS, cos their parents were in hiding while the nazis were actively hunting for them, and it’s a fucking miracle they made it out of the war alive as it is.

I know multiple Poles who believe the exact same thing, and believe WW2 ended/liberation happened only after the Soviets left
No no you see war is a videogame and K/D is the only reason why wars are fought and since brave and mighty Finland killed more dirty Orcs they won.
What do you mean they surrendered and had to give the Soviets more land than was initially asked for? Shut up you dumb tankie.
The Soviets were wrong. They should have liberated the Finnish proletariat
off the charts rn
When you love and respect landlords so much that you erase Finnish peasants, workers and socialists from history
This is the average liberal understanding of Ukraine’s position in world war 2. I’ve heard my whole life that the Soviets were so evil that the nazis were welcomed. There’s never a mention of which Ukrainians welcomed the nazis (or their class loyalties). The narrative is so unscrutinized that I’ve heard this from Ukrainian descended jews saying it to me (also a Ukrainian descended jew).
This reminds me of a Twitter interaction I saw a while ago. Some Ukraine flag guy was claiming that it was actually Ukraine which won WWII because the 1st Ukrainian Front was involved in the Battle of Berlin (not how front naming worked but yeah). Then someone brought up the rpes which happened in Berlin right afterwards and asked if that means Ukrainians were rpists. OP did a complete 180 and blamed all the crimes on “the Russians in the Soviet Army”.
Fucking Ukraine flag bros man.
The same people arguing the Nazis were welcomed as liberators are the same people doing the mental olympics trying to justify how Bandera/OUN were not in fact actual Nazis and how that swastika on every Ukrainian army photo is actually just a norse rune or some shit.
Don’t bother going there.
Every 2(x)4you is just a sub for fascists, especially 2nordic4you. , I know.
They’re consistently in the top 10 for Finnish reddit so at some point it’s not even a sub anymore, just the post dump for the whole site
USSR won the Winter War despite casualties, America lost Vietnam.
