Yeah just the USSR, not The Allies they were a part of

8/10 Nazis were killed by the soviets. The rest of the allies joined the war effort late and didn't sacrifice as many lives

Yeah let's see this play out with just the soviets. I am not condemning them. I am simply stating that if the allies were never formed the axis scourge would have rolled across the Earth.

The soviets also raped girls as a pasttime

Not denying rapes happened, but a German being vocal about soviet war crimes and not about the German ones fits the picture
