The difference is that the Americans rolled out a red carpet for the Nazis and offered employment contracts. The Soviets showed up one night and kidnapped nearly 7000 nazis at gunpoint, and then forced them to work to pay reparations. Based.
The Treaty of Versailles was really unfair to the German people but that didn’t justify anything the Nazis did. The terrible things the Nazis did also didn’t justify the terrible things the Soviets did.
Meanwhile in the Soviet Union

They also committed mass rapes
The frogurt contains potassium cyanide.
They also claimed 7 out of every 10 Nazis killed in WWII, and by all accounts at the time, contributed the most to winning the war.
Absolutely…while kidnapping, raping, and murdering children. There was a reason Germans wanted the west troops to march in as opposed to the soviets.
Wouldn’t that count as slave labour?
Not according to the Allies at the Yalta conference.
By the late 1940s, the only people claiming that the labor enjoyed by the Soviets at the hands of captured Nazis was “slavery” - were Nazis.
By all allied accounts, using German labor to pay reparations was deemed acceptable given how the Soviets had just sacrificed 27 million people.

Two wrongs don’t make a right.

Forced labour hmm. I mean it definitely sounds like slave labour, just lawful form of it. The article does have a quote:
Yes but you see when the Communists do it it’s “based”. /s
Always check which instance someone is using. If it’s lemmy.ml it’s people who worship Soviet Russia and China
And now the Marxist state is a fascist one.
Hmm.
And now the one that fought fascism is a fascist one.
Hmm.
Let’s be honest, practically everyone is turning fascist these days, for one reason or another.
Fascist helping fascists in power
