having heard this load of nonsense before it's just that they let the jews go but piled in all of THEIR undesireables into auschwitz and dachau.

precisely who these undesireables are changes based on who is telling the story and what their goal is. sometimes they say it's gay people, sometimes they say it's the poors, sometimes they say it was german PoWs, blah blah.

naturally there are reams upon reams upon reams of primary paper sources, both writing and photographic, to contradict this entire class of outrageous lie but it doesn't stop outrageaholic idiots like tracey from spewing it for another millisecond of sweet, sweet attention.

Wait this guy supports RUSSIA. And gets mad at 1945 Americans for :airquote: homophobia, and killing German POWs:airquote:? Does he realize like 5,000 people from the 6th army lived through the Russian gulag system and that uh being gay in Russia puts a massive target on your back lol

Stand back, this could get messy.

Imagine being in Wagner and the relief you feel after being taken from the Ukrainian battlefields only to be used to piss off a NATO country so Russia can deny it's Russia and you in Wagner faces the full force of NATO.

By almost all accounts the most infamous concentration camps were in the areas occupied by the Soviet Union, so what is he saying here? "Allies" does include them during the war as well, but he seems to mean AMERICA, so what the hell is he trying to say?

No you see the allies actually bought Poland but leased it to the soviets so they could run the gas chambers unabated. They called it the Patton Molotov pact

That's not even entirely wrong, even if it's a bit distorted.

The law which was used to oppress gay people was retained after the war, and Homosexuals in the camps haf criminal convictions and their sentences were upheld. I do believe their conditions greatly improved after the war, though.

Poland? Ah yes, the country famous for not being fully and brutally occupied by the Soviet Union for the next 50 years the moment the fighting in the Europe ended. So obviously everything that happened there after the WW2 was obviously caused by, or crimes by, the western allies, basically USA, EU and NATO.

Its loving mind-boggling that people actually believe this as a fact.

Looking at his followup responses, he's talking about Americans and Soviets repurposing Holocaust prison camps to hold German soldiers and facilitate population transfers of ethnic Germans. I respect Tracey's dedication to making posts that piss off nearly everyone on both sides of an argument

The latest tankie narrative is that Poland has it coming for Ukraine before partitions (which is why the soviet invasion happened after WWI) and being lovely to Lithuania, Belarus and Czechia in the interwar period. So the soviets did not do Katyń you see, but if the had, it would be just.

Very rough translation by a Polish speaker of the first note:

1. Take your “Baofeng”
2. Change to frequency 149.200
3. Call “Volga”
4. Follow his instructions
5. You’ll live and go back hone (?)

He's technicallly right as far as I know my history: "the Allies" did a lot of ethnic cleansing of Germans in Eastern Europe, utilising concentration camps in the progress.

Of course the specific ally that conducted this ethnic cleansing wasn't the US but his beloved Russia.

You'd think they would at least make the effort to write it in Ukrainian lol.


An acquaintance of mine had a brilliant idea of going to Kyiv, right now, as a tourist. He has dual citizenship but one of them is... russian. He didn't use that passport for entry but that's pretty dumb even by my standards. He reports everything being fine despite the occasional explosions and seems to be enjoying himself so far.

I have visited Ukraine several times and I had planned to visit Kyiv as well, but then came the pandemic and of course the war. I think I recognize the restaurant chain where your friend ate.

No no, it is currently popular among Kremlinophiles to claim that this obviously means Ukraine shouldn't be supported because they still have smart phones and cars.
