  2. Thanks everyone for the motivation and tips like the movies. I know Russian is hard but it's also a beautiful language, and for the people that are also learning: good luck😅.

  3. Dw, unlike you, we're achieving this without a war economy. This is just what we can miss, you can't even give good rantsions and equipment to your own soldiers

  4. Shoulder to shoulder? You forgot how you signed a treaty and wanted to step in their coalition first, before being betrayed lol? Then got the most American aid? It amuses me to see Russians always forget the Molotov-Ribentrov pact

  5.  @muricuri  The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact wasn’t just a non-aggression pact but included the infamous secret part (now of course published) about dividing Eastern Europe between Nazi Germany and Soviet Union. So if you sign a pact about invading a bunch of other sovereign countries, it’s not really a “non-aggression” pact, is it? The other thing you don’t mention is the economic cooperation after the pact: the USSR generously supplied Nazis with oil, steel and other stuff, without which the Nazis would have never been able to remilitarise so quickly. This obviously disproves the notion, which is often taught in Russia and presented by its propagandists, that the pact was about buying the USSR time to prepare for the Nazi invasion. If you expect to be invaded, do you supply your enemy with megatons of war resources? Oh and about your lies about the aid: "In total, the volume of American deliveries amounted to about 11 billion US dollars. According to the law on lend-lease, it was necessary to pay ONLY ( which already is very generous) for what survived during the war. Negotiations on the final amount of the payment began in 1948. By 1973, there were 3 payments totaling $48 million. 3 mandatory payments were negotiated: $12 million on October 18, 1972, $24 million on July 1, 1973, $12 million on July 1, 1975. Under an agreement with the United States, the balance - 674 million - was to be paid by 2001. In 1990, under a new agreement, the Soviet side pledged to pay 674 million dollars until 2030 - adjusted for inflation, a total of 100 million dollars of the 1946 model." Oh and the British? They just forgave everything.

  6.  @indycoon  Not only Poland. According to the protocol, Poland, Romania, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Finland were divided into German and Soviet "spheres of influence". In the north, Finland, Estonia, and Latvia were assigned to the Soviet sphere. Ah so then you were also ex-Mongolian empire, good to know, when can Mongolia expect their lands and borders to be moved? The level of indoctrination is astonishing. It shows that NATO is right, Russians still live in the 18th century and will never stop until their whole capabilities are gone. Luckily your demographics is already helping us with that and Putin is accelerating it.
