Was it acceptable to ally with Uncle Joe in WWII?

[red_elk]

The lives of my ex-wife's family was quite typical to the E. European experience.

Remember how you dismissed exactly the same my argument, when I was talking about Holodomor and Ukrainians which I know personally?

 

[kochman]

My God man... what the hell are you driving at here exactly? What is your point?
You deny it is apologizing for the USSR... then you continue to do so?

My point is clear. The USSR was one of the worst regimes/system to ever be on the face of the earth... and good riddance.

 

[red_elk]

Due to closing your mind off.

No, I learn new information from anybody, provided it can be confirmed.

Yes, my ideology says, mass murdering regimes bent on oppression of its own citizens and those abroad shouldn't be excused.

Your ideology says USSR was "bad news" and it's enough for you not to doubt in this. Logical arguments don't work.

I have not seen condemnation of mass murder.

I didn't see your condemnation of mass murders committed by the US.
Whereas I did condemn Stalin for his repressions and executions at least several times on this forum.
People who read that can confirm.
You didn't see it or chose not to believe what you see.

Anyhow, it's irrelevant. You are entitled to your opinion.
My whole question, which you've ignored is, if I am such a poster from which you can learn nothing and I base everything on ideology, why do you bother asking me questions?

It's "loaded question", another logical fallacy, in addition to numerous strawmen and ad hominem which you use extensively here.
No, I don't consider you a poster from which I can learn nothing.
And I'm not asking you questions anymore, if you didn't notice.

My point is clear. The USSR was one of the worst regimes/system to ever be on the face of the earth...

And the USA's government is a criminal organization involved in numerous mass murders and state terrorism.

and good riddance.

Goodbye, in fourth (or fifth?) time.

My ideology is based on, thou shalt not kill... that's a pretty good argument, I would say.

I didn't see your condemnation of mass murders committed by the US.

Look again, I often said, in this thread, and elsewhere, I didn't approve of the US's actions in many cases. It was never in the millions in single acts, btw.

Whereas I did condemn Stalin for his repressions and executions at least several times on this forum.
People who read that can confirm.

I've not seen that, and am glad to see it now.

It's "loaded question", another logical fallacy, in addition to numerous strawmen and ad hominem which you use extensively here.

I like your use of internets buzz words. However, it was a fair question, which I see you don't want to answer.

And the USA's government is a criminal organization involved in numerous mass murders and state terrorism.

I agree, and it continues to this day, under President Obama, Bush before him, Clinton before him, etc. However, nowhere near the naked brutality of the USSR. We have many more positive aspects.

Making outlandish statements and misrepresenting my position is asking a question in the form that it knowingly demands a response.

The "good riddance" was the dissolution of the USSR, for the record.

Okay you two, that's enough. As thread starter I'm asking the first MOD to read this to close the thread.

Hello again.
Which question I don't want to answer?

I agree, and it continues to this day, under President Obama, Bush before him, Clinton before him, etc. However, nowhere near the naked brutality of the USSR. We have many more positive aspects.

No, the US was much more imperialistic and involved in more crimes.

 

[kochman]

No, the US was much more imperialistic and involved in more crimes.

Da, comrade.

 

[red_elk]

Da, comrade.

Glad that you finally agree.

 

[kochman]

Glad that you finally agree.

Is against law not agree, comrade.

 

[red_elk]

My ideology is based on, thou shalt not kill... that's a pretty good argument, I would say.

It doesn't matter what your ideology is based on, it matters when you base you opinion on ideological arguments only, without knowledge of subject.

Is against law not agree, comrade.

Yes, comrade.
