This isnt rocket science. This is Jr. High History splashed with a dash of basic deductive reasoning.

You can say he was 'fighting for the liberation of Ukraine' but seriously? Thats BS. In the 1940s that wasnt even realistically a thing. That wasnt even on the table. There were more pressing matters afoot.

So as I said, when I read this I immediately thought: "Well that doesnt make any sense."

And then this crapstorm ensued. But my immediate reaction was "this is going to be problematic."

How nobody who gets paid to do this kind of thing for a living didnt immediately spot the problem is what I find hard to believe.
