            USA also supported Nazi Germany until USSR marched in and whooped Hitler’s twink ass.

            Lol fucking what? The USSR militarily supported the Nazis until they were attacked

                    I think you need to take a breath mate…

                    Yes, the USSR and Nazi Germany were cooperative during WWII until the Nazis thought they could expand the eastern front. That is just a fact. I’m not saying they were Allied, but they weren’t exactly enemies until the Nazi betrayal of said NAP.

                    I did not bring up the US at any point in my comment, but no I don’t believe they were the good guy in this situation either. The civil rights of minorities in the US at the time were appalling and it’s no wonder Hitler looked at that and sought to implement it against the “undesirables” in his country

                    Not all disagreement is hostile or an attack, I was simply providing a correction to the previous statement that the USSR and Nazi Germany did not militarily benefit each other. If you disagree that their agreements did not have military benefits for both sides, then I very much would like to hear that argument. Obviously once Germany expanded the eastern front, there was no cooperation.

      A lot of people seem the think he was only regarded well once released from prison. I certainly didn’t know much about him until then.

      Yet Only Fools and Horses was made in 1981, and they lived in Nelson Mandela House. So even in the UK we knew South Africa was on the wrong side of history. And we should know, we wrote most of it…
