    The US based “history channel” has a big WW2 documentary that says Stalin was buddy buddy with Hitler until Hitler attacked the USSR and Stalin was taken by surprise. I believed it for years until I de-liberalled myself and learned real fucking history. The west is fucked.

      I guess when USSR and Reich supported opposite sides during Spanish civil war it was a clear sign of friendship or something.

        I don’t recall this ever being mentioned in educational materials. I do recall my history schoolbook talking about Molotov-Ribbentrop “pact”, but never anything else. Not the Spanish civil war and who supported who there, not the many agreements between European countries and Nazis, nothing. IIRC it mentioned a “joint parade” between USSR and Nazis in Poland, though

      That same channel thinks that aliens built the pyramids. They aren’t reliable even by liberal standards

        This was back in the earlier days of the history channel I think. Before they got into the crazier shit. Back when it was the “WWII and tanks” channel.
