      Tankies love to brigade.

      I actually generally prefer posting WW1-era stuff or oddities, but after getting a bunch of tankies bitching on photos I posted of the Romanian Revolution (Cake-Distributor was my favorite of those), I didn’t want to change theme and make it seem like they could bitch their way into silence over Soviet-aligned atrocities.

          I’ll post one or two more, but if the tankie howling dies down, I’ll let it lie there. I don’t want to turn HistoryPorn into a place just to hate on the Sovs, but I also don’t want to contribute to it spreading a culture of denialism over Soviet atrocities.

            I mean I honestly don’t know what your game here is other than to make nazis look like the good guys because that’s the only crowd you attract with posts like that

            Nazis have always loved the chance to defend themselves in WW2, and white supremacists here in the US are probably the biggest haters of communism in this country, hands down. So if you’re not leading up to “nazis were right all along” then what are you even getting at?

            Modern day topics are fine, but stay away from WW2

              Acknowledging that Soviets committed genocide is… making Nazis look good?

              You wanna run that by me again?
