WTF bitch? (Anti-Soviet wank on s_d)

So my post about Jim Hammond roasting Hitler like a hot dog somehow got derailed with anti-Soviet wank. Now how one leads to the other is anyone's guess. Yeah, the Soviets weren't warm and cuddly and hells yeah Stalin has a lot to answer for, but to be fair to them the Soviets were fighting the NAZIS to defend their HOMELAND. I'd be so bold even to say they were the backbone of the fight against Hitler. It's no insult to anyone else to give the Soviet soldiers who fought, bled, and died a little respect. Is it too much to ask to give them their fair share of the glory? Apparently yes, because they were led by STAAAALIIIIN and that cancels out any bravery and sacrifice on the part of his soldiers. I'm not ignoring the USSR's faults and Stalin's viciousness, but it's not like the US government was a fucking paragon of virtue during this time period either, and we still don't disrespect our grandfathers who fought against the Nazis or Imperial Japan.

Oh, scans_daily. So many reasons I don't read the comments over there.
