Sure, after 2 years of happy alliance. Stalin doesn’t get extra credit for being stabbed in the back by his ally. He still chose to make an alliance with Hitler.
In justification of the crucifixion of Czechoslovakia at Munich it was said that [the Soviet Union] could not be trusted and that her assistance would not be worth much in any case. On the points there could be honest difference of opinion, but not about the diplomatic record. Certainly the Czech Government did not doubt [the Soviet Union]'s sincerity. At a session of the Harris Institute at the University of Chicago in August 1939 I asked President [of Czechoslovakia] Benes whether [the Soviet Union] would have supported him had he decided to fight in September 1938. He replied, without an instant’s hesitation: “There was never any doubt in my mind that [the Soviet Union] would aid us by all the ways open to her, but I did not dare to fight with [Soviet] aid alone, because I knew that the British and French Governments would make out of my country another Spain.”

All the [the Soviet Union] is just replacing Russia (the author likes using Russia instead of SU), it changes the quote in no way.
Indeed, actions speak louder than words. And what Britain and France did, was help Germany invade Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland. And ensured Fascism would win in Spain. When Adolf wanted an army, a navy, an airforce, they gave it to him.
Chamberlain was booted out of office over appeasement. You’re still defending Stalin’s decision to invade Poland with the Nazis. That’s the difference between reasonable people and tankies.
OP thinks all the victims of communism are either enemies of the people or made up by the CIA or some other dumb shit
I think the Nazis predate the CIA
I said victims, not allies
are you kidding me? 8 out of 10 Nazi soldiers died on the Eastern front, Soviets are the single greatest bringer of Nazi death that has ever existed

Actions speak louder than words. Maybe Stalin gave Czechoslovakia some nice words, but what he did was help Hitler invade Poland as a friend and ally.

Appeasement worked. Germany went to war.
What Britain and France did was declare war on Germany after the joint invasion of Poland from Hitler and his Soviet allies.

Yeah, they were never allies Wiki: Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.
Do you think an evening on Wikipedia to enlighten you might frighten you?
That’s exactly the alliance I was referring to, thank you
A non-aggression pact is an alliance now? I guess up means down now as well.
When you split up Poland with someone in a joint military invasion and help support their military with massive economic supplies, yes, you’re allies.
That’s what I thought.
Yeah when you help the Nazis invade Poland, that’s an alliance.
In before “well akshually helping the Nazis was a good thing because the polish were the real Nazis” tankie apologia
Lol cope
