Ah yes, the part where the USSR defeated fascism right fucking after it allied with and was subsequently betrayed by fascism.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain 🙄
The communists were never allies with the Nazis. A non-aggression pact is not an alliance. The communists spent the decade prior trying to form an anti-Nazi coalition force, such as the Anglo-French-Soviet Alliance which was pitched by the communists and rejected by the British and French. The communists hated the Nazis from the beginning, as the Nazi party rose to prominence by killing communists and labor organizers, cemented bourgeois rule, and was violently racist and imperialist, while the communists opposed all of that.
When the many talks of alliances with the west all fell short, the Soviets reluctantly agreed to sign a non-agression pact, in order to delay the coming war that everyone knew was happening soon. Throughout the last decade, Britain, France, and other western countries had formed pacts with Nazi Germany, such as the Four-Power Pact, the German-French-Non-Agression Pact, and more. Molotov-Ribbentrop was unique among the non-agression pacts with Nazi Germany in that it was right on the eve of war, and was the first between the USSR and Nazi Germany. It was a last resort, when the west was content from the beginning with working alongside Hitler.
Harry Truman, in 1941 in front of the Senate, stated:
Not only that, but it was the Soviet Union that was responsible for 4/5ths of total Nazi deaths, and winning the war against the Nazis. The Soviet Union did not agree to invade Poland with the Nazis, it was about spheres of influence and red lines the Nazis should not cross in Poland. When the USSR went into Poland, it stayed mostly to areas Poland had invaded and annexed a few decades prior. Should the Soviets have let Poland get entirely taken over by the Nazis, standing idle? The West made it clear that they were never going to help anyone against the Nazis until it was their turn to be targeted.
Churchill did not take the Nazis as a serious threat, and was horrified when FDR and Stalin made a joke about executing Nazis. Churchill starved millions to death in India in preventable ways, and had this to say about it:
Meanwhile, the soviet famine in the 1930s was the last major famine outside of wartime in the USSR, because collectivized farming achieved food security in a region where famine was common. As a consequence, life expectancy doubled:
The Nazis and soviets were never allies. A non-aggression pact is not an alliance, and the non-aggression pact between the soviets and the Nazis was unique among the other non-aggression pacts in that it was on the eve of war. The soviets knew war was coming, and so bought more time to prepare.
Why did they agree to split Poland then?
Sounds like an alliance to me.
They didn't, they agreed to "spheres of influence" that the other group was to not enter in case of outbreak of war. The soviets did not "split Poland" with the Nazis, the soviets only went in weeks after the Nazis did. Most of the area the Soviets took are areas in modern Lithuania and Ukraine that the Soviets were re-taking. Poland had annexed them in the Polish-Soviet War and the Polish-Lithuanian War earlier.
This did not happen outside of your fevered Mcarthyist dreams
They had an agreement on a mutual benefit or common goal, that's an ally. Not a friend, but an ally.
Vegeta hates the z-fighters but he hated freiza more. Batman and the Joker against the Joker Who Laughs.
That's an ally, even if it is temporary or hate each other they're still allies.
Russia even released documents themselves showing such things.
You guys are seriously severely sensitive to anything you can't even speak truth.

Okay that's fine, they still were an ally to Germany. Part of the pact agreement was to not help enemies of the other. If two characters in Survivor or Squid Game said that, you'd call them allies lol
That's because it was a non-aggression pact. Other such pact have it too, the Soviet–French Non–Aggression Pact or the Anglo-Thai Non-Aggression Pact, or the Portuguese–Spanish Treaty of Friendship and Non-Aggression all seem to have had it. These do not make them allies.
Stalin offered a united front to fight the Nazis, they only accepted a non aggression pact when they knew they were on their own, so they needed to industrialize and prepare, and they did, and they defeated the nazis at a massive cost of life. Literally all of this could have been prevented if the French and the British just agreed to join the USSR, but those two had been genociding the globe for centuries at that point so of course they didn't give a shit if all Slavs were exterminated as long as communism died with them.
This might be the most obviously stupid thing I ever read
Non aggression pacts are not the same as allying with the Nazis. It also wasn't a betrayal when the Nazis invaded. Destruction of the slavs and Lebensraum in eastern Europe was Hitler's inevitable goal he ranted about it in meinkamf for fuck sake everyone knew it was happening eventually. The non aggression pact was necessary to delay the inevitable long enough to industrialise and build up a force to fight the Nazis largely alone as the western powers had continuously refused to form an anti nazi pact since 1933. The soviets were also the last major power to sign a non aggression pact with the Nazis. The USSR broke the nazi beast took the majority of the casualties and killed the most Nazis.
Well, depending on what year we are talking, those that had "read and re-read Mein Kampf until he almost memorized it" like Litvinov in 1928 probably would have, but "[a]s late as 1936 [...] Benes, Herriot, Daladier, Eden and others had not read it." Not to mention "In October 1938—after Munich—Neville Chamberlain instructed the Foreign Office to translate some excerpts for him" (Pope, Maxim Litvinov, pp. 317–18. Quoted in Fleming, The Cold War and Its Origins, chapter 4, note 14)
It's always a massive flex to be able to link epubs you've created, haha. Great work!
Oh my god look at all the allies hitler had. /s Even the US wanted to help them out with operation paperclip. Maybe the fact that the Soviets killed 75% of Nazis was just a bit of nazi infighting in your eyes.
[edit] lol whoops by the time I found the image and posted, cowbee had already made a much better comment with the same image
