Ummm, yeah. I’m not disputing the accuracy of what you’re saying…just that you’re only including one side’s policies in your criticism. You are conveniently omitting the fact that the Soviet Union had nearly identical programs running in parallel to the US. This is also a matter of historical record.
So, I find the fact that your criticism isn’t equally measured to be somewhat problematic. It is clear evidence that your views are biased. It would be a rather simple thing to acknowledge these parallels and call out both sides for their actions…wouldn’t it?
This is where the propaganda aspect comes into play. You look at these parallel situations and find a way to make one side look good for doing it, while criticizing the other. That’s how propaganda works. You aren’t telling a lie, exactly…you’re just finding a clever way to misrepresent the truth, in order to support a preconceived narrative. In this case it’s cartoonishly obvious by the fact that your argument is so completely one-sided.

But they weren’t identical that’s the whole point I’m making please actually read what I said. I know reading might be hard but you are just wasting your time typing nonsense because you seemingly can’t grasp what I’m saying

In the case of the Nazis and fascism reality was “cartoonishly onesided”. Again as I said the USSR for its many faults was absolutely antifascist whereas the US/Europe were categorically not. Look into operation gladio. Look into the history of Ford and IBM with regards to the Nazis not just pre war but during the war. Look at the difference between operation Paperclip and Osoaviakhim.
If you think an accurate portrayal of reality is propaganda you really should do some introspection on what you believe, where you learned it etc. You have been embarrassingly wrong in basically every comment I’ve seen.
I hadn’t known this about how the Soviets treated Nazis before and after the war. It’s good to learn this and I really enjoy seeing your analysis and rebuttals.
