Russia accused Poland for spreading “homosexual propaganda and fascist ideas” and “glorifying Hitler” in its school textbooks.

Hitler was known for being very pro-gay, of course. Also pro-Jew and pro-Slav. That bastard.

    Ernst Röhm. popular leader of the brutal thugs in the street-fighting organisation SA (Sturmabeteilungen) was more or less openly gay. Hitler used this to defame his worst competitor for the party leadership after he had his own garde SS (Shutzstaffeln) wipe out the SA by killing the leaders in The Night of the Long Knives (Nacht der langen Messer) June 30 to July 2, 1934. Strasser and Röhm were the left wing of the NSDAP and so the party took a right turn under the leadership of Hitler.

    Picture – a tiny bit gay?

    IINM The current (semi?) official Russian position is that Poland is to blame for starting WWII. The idea is that Poland refused to acceede to perfectly reasonable demands from Hitler and so he had to invade and Stalin only invaded to to try to protect Poland from itself…

    So this isn’t a surprise. I’m still assuming that the first Russian incursion will be against Latvia since it has a large ethnic Russian population to “protect”.

    An alternate scenario is demanding a corridor through Lithuania and/or Poland to reunite Kaliningrad with the motherland….

    That it’s getting ready for war with someone is pretty much undeniable.

      Putin isn’t going to invade a NATO country unless he’s gone completely crazy. (He hasn’t.)

          “NATO is dead.”

          Even Putin knows better than that. (So does Obama, who has approved the movement of almost 4,000 NATO troops, including around 1,000 US personnel, into Poland and the Baltics this month.)

            Is that the same Obama who’s not going to be president after tomorrow?

    The psychopath’s standard blaming the victim: “Look what you made me do!”
    WW2 was made possible by the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact – dividing Europe, guarantees for Hitler to not get attacked from Stalin. The USSR (SSSR) had a by far larger army than Germany, and it was more modern and better equipped. But madman Stalin hade purged 35.000 of the officers, decapitating his forces.

    Any links for the Russian attacks on Polish textbooks?

        Thanks! Regret that I let my effort to learn Russian ran out into the sand. The only phrases I remember now, 50 years later, is “it’s raining” and “look there – the hedgehog!” Won’t geet me far.
        So I have to rely on Google translator. I’ll try the one at the EU homepage later. I took courses in Russian and typewriting during my mandatory military service – the typewriting was a good investment in time and effort, anyhow

    I love Wislawa Szymborska’s poems. Even bought a book of them, which is a very unusual behavior for me. Would never have guessed she was accused of promoting fascism because of “Hitler’s First Photograph.”

    The poem is here:

    Goodread’s link to the picture seems dead – maybe this will work? But what on Earth is “LL.D.”?

    The stereotypical imagery of Hitler has become so much of a red herring type metaphor, to be used in the most ambiguous ways “as seen fit” by said user, for so many decades now people just name-drop him freely and recklessly.

    Should homosexuality be normalized as it is now all over the television?
