aan Tharoor is an embarrassment to the Washington Post and he continues his proud tradition of spewing nonsense with some historical WW2 revisionism.

For once it’s not about how the Nazis were the good guys, it’s about how their allies, the Communists, were the good guys.

“Don’t forget how the Soviet Union saved the world from Hitler,” Ishaan bleats.

Joseph Stalin was very obsessed with being allied with Adolf Hitler. He was in deep denial when Nazis invaded Soviet Union.
Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.

Allow enemies their space to hate; they will destroy themselves in the process.

The allies saved Stalin from Hitler.

Hitler wasn't satisfied with just half of Poland, he also wanted the half Stalin got and more.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

True.  Agreements between them, including the the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact provided for Hitler and Stalin splitting up Poland on the Bug River line, gave Stalin a free hand to take over the Baltic States, and kept Germany neutral in the Soviet designs on Finland.  Many German military memoirs I've read from German soldiers and officers participating in Operation Barbarossa remarked on the massive array of military installations, forces, and war materiel lined up in the western portions of the USSR, all of them concluded from what they saw that Stalin had intended to use the agreement to rebuild the Red Army after the 1937 purges and then spring a surprise attack on Germany, which didn't happen because Hitler jumped a year before Stalin was ready to betray the Pact on his own end.

That's about as revisionist as I have ever seen.
The problem is, that we are long our greatest generation so fast now, there won't be any first hand defenders left around to refute the propagandists.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
