Communism

learn about the failure of the united arab republic because nasser was an autocratic egypto-centric

Sino-Soviet split. Blame Mao.

this tbh

What's with the pink countries? Sure, they were friendly to the soviets but they were just left-wing capitalist countries.
Also, Yugoslavia doesn't deserve to be red.

And India does?

Ofcourse not, but atleast we all agree that India isn't socialist while some still uphold Yugoslavia as actually existing socialism.

The U.S. and the other Capitalist countries did everything they could to stop Communism. They spent multiple billions (at least), fought several wars, and some of the most extensive disinformation campaigns to ever exist. They threatened nuclear apocalypse. They did everything humanly possible to destroy the best human movement to ever have existed. And they failed, because they are cursed with a retarded economic system, a retarded morality, and a retarded political system.
That's why Communism hasn't succeeded yet.

This. Anyone have that McArthur quote about turning the Korean peninsula into a nuclear wasteland in order to stop advancing Chinese armies?

Nuclear weapons ruined everything. Red army would have crushed NATO.

Are khrushevite revisionists innocent there?

To count every German occupied country in WW2 as a willing co-belligerent in terms of population size is disingenuous at best. In fact, many of these populations remained active enemies and saboteurs of the reich until its bitter end (see yugoslavia).

By your logic, the populations of the occupied Soviet Union would be counted as co-belligerents to Germany just the same, even though (according to another supposed statistic on the graph) the number of collaborationists in occupied territories was apparently quite low? What a glaring contradiction in logic.

Also, the actual population of the Soviet Union in 1939 was 170,600,000. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_population_in_1939. How it managed to sink by over 5.5 million in only two years (and prior to any large-scale military conflict) is certainly quite the mystery.

What an embarrassing little propaganda piece.

Propaganda is never embarrassing unless it is obviously false and not aesthetic.

dude, the "Ни шагу назад" policy was real

Most armies execute deserters on the battlefield though. I don't understand the controversy.

(i'm not the person who posted the picture, although we share icon).
And many submitted without fighting, or/and actively collaborated with the Germans, or were openly allied. Most of the population in Europe were working with the nazi and actively contributing to their war machine, with their countries' GDP comparable to preoccupation levels. It is undeniable that Germany had more human and industrial resources.
You want to make it sound like occupation of Soviet territories and occupation of Czechoslovakia, Austria, were the same thing. Nazi occupation policy was much harsher in USSR than on the west because of incredible population resistance on the scale they were unprepared for. There was no need for harsh measures in the western countries because both their populations and sometimes their governments actively collaborated with the Nazies. While the life of the ordinary Dane or French wasn't changed that much by nazi occupation, Soviet occupied territories had seen large-scale people's war with entire zones being liberated and controlled by partisans, railways and supply convoys constantly harassed and resistance even from children and women.
All that reduced the contribution of these territories to mostly food requisitions and only hurted Wehrmacht because of the need to divert resources to pacify these areas and constant threats to supply lines.
Here it defines collaborationists as those who was fighting armed alongside Nazies. These numbers are accurate, and even lower estimates are given for some.
USSR population in 1941 was 195 392 000, that part in the picture is wrong.

Keep believing that US came and saved the world, if that's what they tell you in schools.

At the time order 227 was signed front was largely on the brink of collapse with entire divisions being shattered without serious resistance, just because of fear. Western "allies" also abandoned USSR, because they expected it to fall any time soon.
During the one of the worst times on the front, at 1 October 1942 according to Don Front NKVD report:
out of 36 109 deserters 433 were executed, 736 detained, 1089 sent into penal companies and batallions, rest was returned to their units.
On the collapsing front only 1% of the deserters were executed.

Was there ever a chance of Iran joining the Soviet bloc? Communism with Persian characteristics would be aesthetic as fuck.

No Iran in mazandaran was invaded by soviet so they were not on good terms.

Read about Iran Crisis of 1946.

see yiyay

What did he mean by this

Are we speaking of same army that was incapable of occupying Afghanistan?

Absolutely not. For plenty of reasons, but mostly because it's Japanese. Stalin didn't like the Japanese.

How did they fail? The USSR is gone, and the last remaining communist countries are communist only in name.

Where did you get than number from? Absolute maximum estimates of German casualties are 5.3 million.

Occupied territory does not count as population. You can't make an army out of people who are actively resisting the government. Germany's population was only 87 million. Germany and France were the only two industrialised nations under German control. And the French industry was pathetic.

It's YOUR fault, OP.
Why didn't you hand out more flyers around town?
Why didn't you post more memes on lefty Facebook?
The Global Union of Socialist Soviet Republics would have stayed together if only YOU actually gave them your support.

Because you touch yourself at night when you should be spreading class consciousness

Soviet Russia made tons of Anime.
