      It’s funny how russkies managed to normalize using “russia” in positive WW2 context and “ussr” in negative.

      “russia” won the war. “ussr” committed atrocities and used barrier troops.

      Doesn’t matter that most of the fighting was in Ukrainian territory. Doesn’t matter that, as always, most losses were from “republics” of non-white-russian descent. Heck, Moscow wasn’t even levelled to the ground. Not even Stalingrad/St. Petersburg. There was plenty to rebuild. At the same time, cities like Chernihiv have 1 (one) old, pre-war building left.

      But yeah, sure, it was “russia” that “won” against nazis.

      Too bad they couldn’t beat Bolshevism. The two forces are both evil.

      Yes, because Soviet battle tactics were unforgivably wasteful when it came to casualties, the callous attitude towards their own soldiers was obscene, and they executed a shedload of their own men as part of various political purges.

      The Soviet Union, and Ukraine in particular, suffered enormously as part of the Second World War, but not all of that suffering was a heroic necessity. There was a lot of cruel, self-imposed stupidity too.
