Rest in peace Roza Shanina. With over 50 confirmed kills on Nazi soldiers in the Great Patriotic War, her life was cut short tragically at the age of 20 while defending wounded comrades.
“The essence of my happiness is fighting for the happiness of others. It’s strange, why is it that in grammar, the word “happiness” can only be singular? That is counter to its meaning, after all. … If it turns necessary to die for the common happiness, then I’m braced to.”
What a badass.
Absolutely, she’s a heroine.
Praised for her shooting accuracy, Shanina was capable of precisely hitting enemy personnel and making doublets (two target hits by two rounds fired in quick succession).
Lmao holy shit just out there firing her bolt-action like it’s semi-auto a full klick out like it’s nothing.
Yep, actual legendary heroine shit.
Not a single use of the word “Nazi” in the entire article… The only mentions of it is when it’s whitewashed by the cited articles’ titles:
NATOpedia to the core.
In Canada, our parliament gave a standing ovation to a nazi https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-66943005
I love how the snopes article on this one is like: Did the entire canadian parliament honor a nazi who fought against the USSR in WW2?
Yup, they did it:
The comparison is a bit hasty, since in the US your not accused of being a “foreign agent” and imprisoned when you reveal war crimes committed by the army (search about Memorial NGO).
Assange, Manning, and Snowden would like to have a word with you.
Anna Politkovskaya (Novaya Gazeta), Stanislav Markelov (Novaya Gazeta), Anastasia Baburova (Novaya Gazeta) and Natalia Estemirova (Memorial) would like to have a word with you… No wait they can’t, caused they were all killed.
My point is democraties like the US are clearly flawed, but not to the point of assassinating their own citizens. But no point in debating with you, you’re probably an agent hired by Moscow to spread its propaganda.
The US absolutely assassinates political figures like Fred Hampton. The US isn’t a democracy, it’s a dictatorship of capital.
Still putting the US on the same level as Russia in terms of human rights violations is absurd. And the ideal is to improve human rights conditions in both countries, not to argue over which one’s the worst country. Anyway, with how things are going, the US are going to be as bad as Russia in a few years.
Correct, the genocidal US Empire far-outscales the problems with the Russian Federation, and it isn’t close. The US Empire is the world’s hegemon and absolutely plunders the global south, couping, sanctioning, invading, and genociding those who go against that system of plunder.
Still putting the US on the same level as Russia in terms of human rights violations is absurd.
Agreed. Russia hasn’t been couping a random country and slaughtering its people for the last fifty years. Neither is it aiding and abetting a genocide.
The US has by far the worse human rights record, and is easily the most evil empire in world history. They just killed over a million innocent civilians a few years ago in Iraq, running torture camps and assassination programs. Its perpetrated countless atrocities in nearly every single country .
You’re right, the US was built on slavery and genocide. Today, it has higher incarceration rate today than USSR had during purges under Stalin. There is absolutely no comparison here.
