I’ve heard people make the argument that if only Stalin had stood up to Hitler before he had invaded Poland we would have avoided the holocaust.
Prior to the invasion of Poland, Hitler and Stalin were allies.
What else has been lost to history to betray us into thinking

such a thing. What else has been lost to allow us to believe the hundreds of millions of bodies piled up which no one mourns or honors or remembers the way we do the horrors of Hitler? What else lost that allowed us to add to that count TODAY.
Because make no mistake…we are living through a democide, propagated by the same conception of using the “greater good” to butcher human beings.
So how about this question instead?

What if we had never signed Yalta. What if we had never allowed ourselves to be shamed into believing we weren’t born free and that liberation was more ethical than liberty?

There’s a joke I rather like. A man is tasked with traveling to the past to kill Hitler before he can begin WW2…
…he comes back and tells his commander “I’m so sorry. I couldn’t complete my mission to kill Hitler but I did kill Woodrow Wilson.”
The commander replies, “who is Hitler?”

I think one might be able to replace his name with many others who have hurt us and our children so deeply in these past two years.
@profcjdotorg you might appreciate this.
