Posted on this, the 87th anniversary of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.

Massively underrates the contribution of Britain and the Commonwealth standing alone for two years, the United States’ production (which included the Lend-Lease keeping the Soviet Union alive) and Japan, which didn’t get involved in the war against the Soviet Union and therefore wouldn’t feel important at all to the poster, but fought a massive war in the Pacific by itself. Depicting Germany as several times larger than the United States is absurd. Thinking the Soviets won the war almost single-handedly is just another flavor of the same nationalism.

Tankies gonna tank pretty much sums up a lot of Reddit.

An accurate metaphor image for Reddit would be a bunch of little red tankie dinosaurs fighting a bunch of little stinky incel dinosaurs, while a much smaller group of just regular dinosaurs looks on, shaking their heads.

You are missing that those dinossaurs looking on are the meme of the guy sitting in its own brain, with a smug look, without having ever read a book
