Uhhh Russia invaded unoccupied Poland at the same time as Nazi Germany.

While it's inaccurate to characterize them as "victims of communism" it's full blown anti-intellectualism, and astonishingly disrespectful to the polish people, to deny their suffering under Soviet occupation.

The Soviet Union largely stuck to areas Poland had invaded and annexed a few decades earlier, and did so largely to prevent the Nazis from taking all of Poland. Genuinely, what should the Soviet Union have done instead? Let the Nazis take all of Poland?

Oh, it all makes sense now, here you are denouncing Palestine Action for breaking the law in order to slow down genocide. You're actually a fascist.
