    The USSR did not support the nazis lmao? 27 million soviets died fighting them and the molotov-ribbentrop pact gave them the time they needed to prepare. You really think they agreed ideologically?

      USSR and Germany started WW2 together by invading Poland.

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_of_Poland

      The ideology only changed when Germany invaded Russia and Russia left the “axis” and joined the “allies”.

      Edit: I don’t know if the ideology matched (the dictatorship part does), but they were both expansionist.
