Communists in the USSR weren’t that good either, don’t forget that too... Oh, and weren’t they also the ones that collaborated with the nazis from 1939 to 1941?
The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was not societ "collaboration" with the Nazis. It was a self-preserving, non-aggression treaty between a rising fascist empire hell-bent on destroying workers movements like communism as all fascists are and a young workers movement that had been besieged since it's inception. It gave them the time they needed to industrialize and prepare for the inevitable war with the Germans which they sacrificed so much for. 80% of Nazis were killed by the red army and 27 million soviets died for it
Have you read the secret protocol that was attached to it? How can dividing the Eastern Europe into „spheres of interest“ and occupying the territories of foreign states (the pact was signed a month before WWII started by both nazi Germany and USSR that invaded Poland, after that the Baltic countries, Romania and maybe a country or two more that I cannot remember) a „self-preserving, non-aggression treaty between a rising fascist empire hell-bent on destroying workers movements like communism as all fascists are and a young workers movement“? Pardon me, but your statement is full of shit. Just like USSR, that’s why it was „besieged since it’s inception“.
Yeah territory definitely has no strategic value when you are preparing for war against your largest ideological enemy 💀
I never said it was great (or even ideal), just that you were severely misrepresenting it
