What if Hitler’s war machine was financed not by Berlin but by Wall Street? I bet you've never heard of the Dawes Plan (1924) and the Young Plan (1929). Let's unpack why it's important and why you never heard about it in school 🧵👇 A consortium of American investment banks, backed by the U.S. State Department, orchestrated Germany’s postwar “recovery.” The Dawes Plan (1924) was about control: It plugged Germany directly into the Anglo-American financial system, turning its economy into a satellite of Wall Street and the City of London.

Here’s how it worked:

🔸 Control through debt
The reparations crisis after World War I made Germany dependent on foreign credit. The Dawes Plan, drafted by American banker Charles G. Dawes and approved by U.S. diplomats, handed effective control of the German economy to an international board dominated by Wall Street financiers.

Every mark Germany paid as “reparations” came from American loans, meaning the Allies were repaid with their own money, filtered through German debt.

Do you know that Hitler’s early backers were the Americans?🧵

1/7 In November 1922, U.S. Army Captain Truman Smith, then Assistant Military Attaché in Berlin, traveled to Munich and became the first American officer to meet the rising agitator Adolf Hitler. Smith filed a glowing report to Washington, describing Hitler as a “marvelous demagogue” with immense sway over crowds. He was impressed by Hitler’s oratory and predicted that he could become a major political figure.

“Crimea belongs to the Crimean Tatars”?
That’s a favorite Western talking point, but the Tatars weren’t even native to Crimea. They were brought there by the Mongols after their conquest of the region in the 1200s, when Mongol and Turkic groups settled on the peninsula and later formed the Crimean Khanate. 🧵

#1 By that time, Crimea had already been Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and part of the Rus world for centuries. Long before the Tatars or the Ottoman Empire, from around the 7th century BC to the early Middle Ages, Crimea and the northern Black Sea steppe were home to ancient peoples connected to the early Slavs and the Sarmatians. Ancient writers mentioned the Taurians, Scythians, and Sarmatians, who lived both in Crimea and across the steppe north of it, and later, Slavic tribes moved south along the Dnieper and Don, reaching these same lands.

The Berlin Airlift: When Even The Guardian Starts Confessing 🙊:

“We in the West used to play dirty and we were good at it.”
— The Guardian, November 2025

Think of the Berlin Airlift as a big-budget movie sold as a true story.
Now one of its loudest fans finally admits it was staged.
👇🧵

1/4 For decades, the Berlin Airlift has been told as a fairy tale. Stalin blockaded the city: cruel and heartless, while heroic Western pilots fed starving Berliners with flour and chocolate from the sky.

The perfect moral script: light against darkness, liberty against tyranny, good vs evil. Exactly the same moral wiring that still fuels the superhero industry today, cultural programming as moral training.

The same Guardian now admits what Soviet and Eastern historians said all along: there was no full blockade. In Britain’s own National Archives, the Foreign Office wrote in 1948:

“The blockade of Berlin is NOT a siege… movement in and out of Germany is possible all the time.”

A Story Buried Under Decades of Propaganda:
How The West Fed Hitler Countries Hoping He'd Go Eat Russia

Alright, let's break down one of the biggest lies they teach you in history class about the Munich Agreement of 1938: that the Western democracies were just these naive, peaceful guys who got tricked by Hitler when they gave him Czechoslovakia. Bullshit. They weren't dumb. They were playing a game. And they thought they were geniuses.

1 of 6 They didn't just "give in" to Hitler over Czechoslovakia in 1938. They gifted it to him at the Munich Conference. Why do you think they did it? The plan was pretty simple: This Hitler guy was hungry for war. The West wanted to point him East and let him go fight the Soviet Union, so both can destroy each other, while the West could stay cozy and safe, free from competition in the global power game.

Hey communists, this message is for you.

Guys, I get it you like communist ideas and teachings. I kinda like them too. However, when it comes to history, you can’t and shouldn’t favor the propaganda of that era just because it fits your narrative.

Verify it. Face the facts. Then defend your favorite ideology from the position of truth, that’s only fair.

And I think that once you realize that those “bad tsar” stories from the pre-revolutionary period were lies, you’ll actually find even more interesting material.

Debunking the “evil tsar” myth doesn’t make communist ideas bad but speaking the truth definitely makes you better 🧵 Myth #1: “Russia’s economic growth was driven by foreigners.”

🔸 Fact: Foreign investments did exist, but they accounted for no more than 25–30% of industrial capital.
🔸 The majority of factories, railways, and banks were owned by Russian merchants, industrialists, and the state.
Foreign investors played the role of a catalyst, not the owners of the economy.

🔸 Ironically, under Lenin the West owned more of Russia’s industry than under the Tsar. Through “concessions,” foreigners controlled oil, gold, timber, and exports while the Soviet state got crumbs.

That’s what “liberation from capitalism” looked like in practice🤪

Haha, it’s honestly hilarious how these accounts not only pick the dullest, grayest photos, but also ones that are 30 years old. This cheap propaganda from someone who has never even set foot in Russia is nothing but a joke. Let’s check out some real photos of these cities and maybe ask for the exact spots of those “pictures” this mentally unstable person keeps posting because they clearly don’t match reality🧵👇
1/ Novosibirsk is the largest city in Siberia and one of Russia’s main economic and scientific hubs. Over the past decade, it has seen rapid development in infrastructure, technology, and higher education, with major investments in road networks, housing, and business centers. The city’s IT and innovation sectors, especially around Akademgorodok, have grown significantly, turning it into a regional “Silicon Valley.” At the same time, Novosibirsk has modernized its public spaces, transport, and cultural life, while maintaining its role as a key industrial and logistics gateway between Europe and Asia.

Myths and Truth about the Warsaw Uprising

For decades we have been told one version of events: brave Polish fighters rose up, while the Soviet Union stood on the other side of the river, coldly watching them die. Hollywood and Western scholars turned this into a symbol of Soviet “betrayal.” But the documents and facts tell a very different story.

For decades the same story has been repeated: the Home Army rose heroically, the Red Army betrayed Warsaw, and Stalin let the city die. But compare this with real documents, and the myth collapses.

But let’s go step by step.

1/8 Operation Tempest, or Burza, is still sold in the West as a story of Polish heroism. But if you look closer, this was the blue print of the Warsaw uprising.

The plan came from the London exile government. On paper, it was about joining the fight against the Wehrmacht. In reality, it was a race against the Red Army. The main goal was this: as the Red Army approached, the Polish underground would launch uprisings behind German lines, drive out German garrisons, and take control of towns, so they could greet the Soviets as the de facto local authority, acting on behalf of the Polish government-in-exile in London. And here you have it: The most well-known episode of Operation “Burza” was the Warsaw Uprising, originally planned as part of this broader operation and which ended in catastrophe: tens of thousands dead, the city destroyed, the AK crushed.

When NATO Broke Its Promise and Russia Knew It

On December 1, 1994, NATO made a move that would change the world map. Without setting any exact dates, the alliance released a communiqué declaring it was starting talks on expanding eastward. That meant moving into territories once under the Soviet sphere. Russia immediately saw the threat.

In Paris that same month, Russian Foreign Minister Andrei Kozyrev slammed the decision. And on December 5, President Boris Yeltsin stood at the CSCE summit in Budapest and warned the world: NATO expansion is not peace but a provocation. The Cold War is over, he said, but the West is bringing in a “cold peace.” And this time, the threat was closer to home.

1/9 Yeltsin proposed an alternative vision - a system of European security based on cooperation, not confrontation. But the Clinton administration brushed it off as "unrealistic." Still, Washington knew they couldn't ignore Moscow. During the 1995 Moscow summit, Yeltsin and Clinton discussed not only financial support via IMF and World Bank, but also a deal: NATO expansion would be gradual, Russia would be consulted on European security, and NATO would boost its political - not just military - dimension.

Earlier, in June 1994, Russia had agreed in principle to join the "Partnership for Peace." But NATO’s airstrikes against Bosnian Serbs in August sparked outrage in Moscow. Russia froze the talks. Only after another summit did negotiations resume. On May 30, 1995, Russia officially joined the Partnership.

Myth that “Russia was a Mongol province!” and interesting parallels to today’s geopolitics.

Oh, here we go again, the same old tune. Yes, Rus paid tribute to the Mongols. Nobody denies that. But twisting this into “Russia didn’t exist”? That’s propaganda. Again.

Even the Mongols themselves acknowledged Rus. The khans issued yarlyks (charters) to the princes of Rus. If there was no Rus, who exactly were those yarlyks addressed to? Ghosts?

Some facts that don’t bend:
🔸 Rus kept its coinage, minted with its own symbols.
🔸 Rus worshipped the same Orthodox Christ.
🔸 The Rurik dynasty continued without interruption.
🔸 The people kept their identity and yes, their DNA code (R1a, to be precise).

Let’s dive into how this connects to Poland, the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact, NATO, and the Vatican🧵👇 So the Mongols acknowledged Rus by issuing yarlyks to its princes. Europe of the time marked Rus as a country on its maps. Both worlds recognized Rus - yet in 2025, trolls deny it. Who do you trust: the Mongols and medieval Europe, or today’s propaganda bots?

1. Map: Hereford Mappa Mundi (c. 1300, England).
2. Map: Ebstorfer Weltkarte (c. 1234, Saxony).
3. Map: Psalter World Map (c. 1265, England, likely London or Westminster).

Think of India in the 19th century: ruled directly by the British, economy drained, industries ruined, millions starved. Yet it was still India on every map, its identity intact.

Rus had it easier: it paid tribute but kept its princes, faith, culture, and coins. If India wasn’t erased under full colonial rule, why pretend Rus vanished under the Mongols?

But look at today’s “Western reconstructions”: suddenly the entire map is just the Mongol Empire, with no Rus at all. That’s political revisionism.

Why Ukraine Doesn’t Qualify as the Successor of ‘Kievan Rus’.

Since 2014, Ukraine has been busy inventing a national identity from scratch. History? Doesn’t matter. Facts? Optional. Logic? Throw it out the window. The result? A confused mess of revisionism where everyone and everything is magically “Ukrainian.” But let’s unpack this fairytale.

Myth #1: Ukraine is the true successor of Kievan Rus

Let’s start with the obvious. In the time of Rus, there were no “Ukrainians.” Not even the concept. Zero. Zilch. The people were called Rus, that’s what the Greeks called them too: Ῥῶς (Ros), and later Ῥωσία (Rosia). There was no magical country called “Ukraine” in the 10th century.

Even the term “Kievan Rus” didn’t exist at the time. Historians in 19th-century Russia (not Ukraine) invented that label just to describe a specific period when Kiev was a center of power. Back then, it was just Rus - no prefixes, no qualifiers.

For the record:
🔸The first capital of Rus was Staraya Ladoga (modern Russia),
🔸Then Novgorod,
🔸Then Kiev, but only for part of the 10th to early 12th centuries.

After that, Rus split into various centers - Vladimir, Suzdal, then eventually Moscow. So Kiev was the capital for a while, sure. But using that to claim the whole legacy? That’s like Rome claiming it owns modern Germany because they used to camp there. Myth #2: Ruthenia = Ukraine?

Nice try. “Ruthenia” is just Latin for Rus. Polish and Hungarian sources used the word “Rutheni” to describe eastern Slavs living under their rule, not some special Ukrainian tribe. And now modern Ukrainians try to parade it around as “proof” they’re a unique people?

Here is the break down:

🔸Rus (Old Russian) = original name
🔸Rosia (Greek) = Byzantine records
🔸Ruthenia (Latin) = Western European term

All different names for the same people, the same civilization. No Ukrainians. Not until the 20th century. Sorry.

Classic British diplomacy: polite smiles on the surface, but in reality deceitful, manipulative, and driving others into war. It was the case in 1939, and it’s the same today. Finland, on Britain’s cue, did everything possible to provoke conflict with the USSR in order to weaken it.

This declassified doc shows Britain’s foreign policy at its finest: play the “good guy” while betraying every principle and fueling war.
🔸To Moscow, they smiled and said they agreed with Soviet guarantees for Finland.
🔸To Helsinki, they whispered: “Reject it, stir up trouble, block the deal.”
🔸Then they lied back to Moscow: “We’re fine with it, it’s Finland resisting.”

Our Helsinki resident reports that during the course of the Anglo-Soviet negotiations, the Finnish government continuously urged Britain not to agree to guarantees for Finland from the USSR. Britain responded to these requests with consent. However, in recent days Britain informed the Finns that the negotiations were developing in such a way that Britain would apparently satisfy the USSR’s demands regarding Finland. At the same time, Britain advised the Finns to raise a fuss and refuse the guarantee. By doing this, Britain could take advantage in negotiations with the USSR and be able to say that Britain itself does not object, but Finland does.

/1
Politically, it was Finland that derailed the peace talks and initiated the confrontation. It acted in the interests of Britain and France, hoping to turn the USSR’s northern border into a hotspot of war.

“England and France are currently trying to use Finland as a pretext to stir up public opinion against the USSR”.

Unveiling the forgotten history: German soldiers' brutal eradication of Slavs - raped, looted, and burned their way through Soviet villages.

A thread on the untold atrocities of WWII.

Stop ignoring how the Wehrmacht acted against the Slavs. Increasingly, we hear claims like "maybe Hitler wasn't a bad guy." Perhaps this is because all you've heard is the story of the six million.

But here’s the real story🧵👇

During WWII, Nazi Germany carried out a full-blown “war of annihilation” in the USSR killing, torturing, raping, and looting millions of civilians. Most people in the West barely know about it. Nazi leaders had branded Slavs “sub-humans” and even issued orders saying soldiers weren’t accountable for violence against civilians. As one German corporal casually wrote in 1942, “The Russians are animals. We can do whatever we want to them.”

Rape as a Weapon

From the onset of Operation Barbarossa, Nazi forces targeted local women with brutal assaults. By 1943, alarmed SS commanders discovered that half their troops in the East were engaged in "undesirable" acts with "alien" women. Instead of imposing penalties, the Barbarossa Decree (May 13, 1941) ensured soldiers faced no repercussions for crimes against civilians. Consequently, mass rapes, gang assaults, and forced brothels were woven into the Wehrmacht's terror tactics. Astonishingly, much of the Western world still turns a blind eye to these atrocities.

The Yalta Conference (Feb 1945) brought together Stalin, Roosevelt, and Churchill in Crimea to shape the postwar world and plan the Allies’ final push against Germany and Japan. Surprisingly, Poland ended up being the main topic of debate.

/1 At that time, the Polish government-in-exile, formed after the government fled and was interned in Romania had relocated to London, hence the term “the London government.”

Churchill tried to push his own interests. He argued grandly that handing authority to Poland’s government-in-exile was a matter of honor. Stalin cut him off: “For Russia, this is a matter not only of honor, but of security. Throughout history, Poland has served as a corridor through which enemies have attacked Russia.”

What if I told you the Winter War wasn’t about Soviet ‘aggression’ but about Finland refusing every compromise, while secretly helping build Hitler’s navy.

Stalin and Molotov tried everything possible to secure the Soviet borders:

🟨They offered money.
🟨They offered a 30-year lease.
🟨They even offered territories twice the size of what they asked for.

But Finland chose war over reason.
🧵👇

1/9 Paasikivi and Tanner themselves admitted that Moscow’s terms were generous and that Finland should accept them. But Helsinki refused, while quietly aligning with Germany and was unwilling to make a single concession to Moscow.

In the 1939 talks, Stalin warned that Finland could serve as a springboard for an attack on Leningrad. He was right: just two years later, Finland joined Hitler’s assault in the Siege of Leningrad, which starved 1.5 million civilians. And beyond the battlefield, Finnish authorities also ran concentration camps, where countless Soviet civilians died.

In this thread, I’ll share Tanner’s own words as Finland’s Foreign Minister, so you can sense the atmosphere of those negotiations yourself.

From Kirov to Kirk: Political Assassinations and Lessons from the Past

Sometimes one bullet drowns out every speech. In December 1934, Sergei Kirov was shot in the head in Leningrad. He was one of the most popular figures in Soviet politics, full of energy, trusted by workers, and known as a loyal supporter of Stalin. The man who pulled the trigger, Leonid Nikolaev, appeared to be a bitter outsider with a tangled personal life and a deep resentment toward Kirov.

But soon after, investigators uncovered his links to opposition circles tied to Zinoviev and Trotsky, both long-time enemies of Stalin and connected with foreign intelligence.

🧵👇
Trotsky was already abroad, living off steady streams of financial and political backing from the West. Archives leave no doubt about his ties: articles printed in France and the US, networks of émigrés and private sponsors.

Right after Kirov’s murder, Moscow held open trials. Testimony revealed that both the “left” opposition around Trotsky and the “right” bloc of Bukharin and Rykov were entangled with foreign intelligence.

Names came up again and again: German, Polish, Japanese, French, British, even American circles that offered money and publicity to Trotsky’s supporters.

The plan behind it was simple enough: A future war would break the USSR into pieces. Poland, Japan, and Germany would take their share of land. Trotsky and his allies would be rewarded with power for helping make it happen.

That is why the purges began. The country was crawling with spies, couriers, and sympathizers, all feeding outside interests. And the warning signs had been there long before. Back in 1927 the Soviet leadership had already declared that war was no longer a distant threat but an approaching reality.

⬇️

Let’s take a look today at the city of Chita. Usually the chorus goes: ‘Well, Moscow may be fine, but just step outside of Moscow and you’ll see…’ So let’s take that step. Chita is a small city, located very far from Moscow. It’s an old city, with its history going back to the 15th century, and it began to truly develop during the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway. After the Treaty of Nerchinsk (1689) between Russia and China, the status of Transbaikalia was secured for Russia, and the Buryats gradually became part of it. In the 18th century, the Buryats entered Russian allegiance, retaining considerable autonomy and their own lands. In return, they received protection from the Manchus and Mongols, as well as access to trade.

Yesterday we discussed the Second World War in Europe, where the Red Army destroyed 75–80% of the Wehrmacht. Today, let’s turn to what happened in China.

Japan launched its war against China in 1937, which is why many historians mark that year as the true beginning of World War II in Asia. A lesser-known fact is that in 1939 Japan also clashed with the USSR at Khalkhin Gol, where Soviet forces under General Zhukov delivered a decisive defeat. On September 15, 1939, the Soviet–Japanese Ceasefire Agreement was signed in Moscow.

After that, Japan no longer attempted to attack the USSR, but instead intensified its brutal campaign in China and Korea, killing civilians, sending people to concentration camps, and pursuing outright territorial conquest. In the Second World War, between 15 and 29 million Chinese died, including 3 to 4 million soldiers (some estimates are even higher).

China fought back against Japan and played a major role in wearing down the enemy, though this contribution is rarely acknowledged in the West.

Many people assume the Americans did most of the fighting in the Pacific, but that was primarily a naval war near Japan. In China, it was a vast land war, especially in Manchuria in the northeast, with massive battles that tied down much of the Japanese Army, a fact still largely absent from Western narratives.

Finnish President Stubb calls on Europe to unite against the “common threat.” Oh, how boring and repetitive. Where have we heard that before? Ah yes, when Finland joined Hitler in his campaign against the USSR, dreaming of new territories.

Remember Finland's rallying cry to join forces with Hitler: "Join us in a holy war against our nation's enemies. Together with Germany's powerful military, as brothers-in-arms, we embark on a crusade to secure Finland's future."

And guess what? Churchill was right there, holding Mannerheim’s hand. Didn’t know that?

Then let’s unpack👇🧵

1/5 Western textbooks love to paint Churchill as the bulldog of Europe: stubborn, fierce, never yielding. But when it came to Finland and its Marshal, Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim, Churchill’s role was something else entirely. He was soothing and applauding. Churchill held Mannerheim’s hand with words, with gestures, with moral encouragement while letting him walk straight into the fire against the Soviet Union.

During a Cabinet meeting on February 12, 1940, Churchill, then First Lord of the Admiralty, proposed dispatching Brigadier Christopher Ling to Helsinki for his mission to bolster Marshal Mannerheim's spirits and deliver precise intel.
