So this was paid for and published by Commintern, The Communist International, also known as the Third International which operated from 1919 to 1943. This was published in the 1930s while Joseph Stalin was in charge.

The fact that some people would post this unironically when the person who sent this message was notorious for the iron-fucking-curtain is beyond stupid.

Ah you're right, we should all get together and protest this by agreeing with Hitler or something. /sarcasm

Last time I checked the history books, it was the Soviet Union under Stalin that rolled into Berlin. You can't even see your own cognitive dissonance over calling the person that literally fought Hitler, Hitler? Plus, you've done nothing to address the fact that the cartoon you posted is literally true and posted on the same front pages of Lemmy? You've clearly been subjected to some wild capitalist bullshit. My condolences.

Yes I'm sure the Soviets went out of their way out of the goodness of their hearts to fight the nazis. It definitely wasn't a brawl between two beasts sharing a predatory territory wherein to the victor went the spoils.
