Yeah that one line threw me and throws this entire thing into the trashcan as anti-soviet, fascist American propaganda. Not worth showing people this if its going to include lies like that which propagate the popular post-war fascist equating of communism to fascism and the all too common school history book lie that Stalin wanted to join with Hitler and they had similar aims but Hitler betrayed Stalin instead of the reality.
Thanks for the research and debunking. Unfortunately as mentioned this video is worthless if it includes blatant anti-communist revisionist lies like that.
In fact the text at the bottom is full of American post-war anti-communist slanting and language designed to reinforce historical revisionism.
I wouldn’t say it’s worthless, it still has use as a tool of how anti-communism is rampant throughout all information provided in the west about WW2, and that it almost becomes a shibboleth for westerners talking about the war that they have to ad a “USSR were evil baddies” somewhere in their work, regardless of how irrelevant, out of context, or incorrect their claims are.
