This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information.

Rent free. Just as Lenin intended.
Gonna go ahead and say it, the Molotov-Ribbentropp pact was unironically a good thing given the circumstances (Britain and France both refusing to enter into an anti-fascist alliance with the USSR). A master stroke of diplomacy that forstalled the inevitable and gave the Soviet Union time to develop and arm.
It also let the Soviet Union take back territory that had been stolen during the Polish-Soviet war and save a big chunk of Poland from Nazi rule.
I prefer to think of it as a necessary evil rather than a good thing, but I understand what you mean. Another outcome was that it allowed the Soviets to focus on resisting and weakening Japanese Imperialism, which I almost never see anticommunists mention (let alone discuss).
An anticommunist would probably reply to you saying that the Soviets went in deporting and exterminating millions of peaceful civilians who were simply minding their own business or, at worst, politely expressing their disagreements with Joseph Stalin’s government.
