Yes they did, but they had a geopolitical interest in expanding into Eastern Europe. Would the Soviets have behaved the same way if the germans wanted to genocide and enslave the French?
Unless you claim that the post war imposition of communist, USSR aligned governments in Eastern Europe was also an act of self defense ljke that, the USSR was still a great power with ambitions.
The fact that the Nazis wanted to genocide Russians was enough for them to want to invade the Nazis. I'm sure you've heard about Lebensraum before
This is so far removed from reality. Capitalism is in decline? The elite violently responded to the 2020 protests? What is this based on? American hegemony is still alive and well.
We are looking as a simple material inability for the workers that uphold capitalism to even live within basic means within the US. People cannot rent homes, attend schools, lease cars, and even buy food to get by, let alone establish a base of ownership. Wealth inequality is at an ever-increasing peak, and labor is only continuing to be exported for cheaper overseas
It is in decline, regardless of what the stock market says

I absolutely have but I'm still curious as to the extent that the Soviets wouldn't have wanted to go to war with the nazis anyway even in some hypothetical the nazis didn't want to do this
It's two great powers next to each other

That doesn't mean Capitalism is in decline lol. It means the middle class is. Which is true. It's the biggest threat to American stability, and therefore the world. We will need to implement further redistributive policies in the next few decades or risk civil unrest/war/balkanization.

Yes

Lenin was Afrikan but besides that good point
Nah I need to hear more about this

The Soviets partaking in an expansionist war to spread communism through Eastern Europe on their own accord was the exact thing Stalin would not have done
If anything that would have been a Trotskyist decision. Stalin chose not to support the Greek and Italian communists after WW2 specifically because he didn’t want to create tension with the west, and that was already with all of Eastern Europe in his hands
Caping for a country that invaded the country you're from
You have no grasp on the political situation of Afghanistan nor the political history. I do, and thus I know where my loyalties lay.
I already Hold a healthy amount of criticism for both the USSR and communist Afghanistan and how they went about the afghan war, but it neither disqualified them from my support, nor does it make them primarily responsible for the condition my homeland is in

I just cited to you a real book. One you clearly had never heard of given you weren't familiar with the definition of the word it defines.
Same ass mf that won’t listen to any actual a***yses of communism because they go directly against his fervent liberalism is calling me an ideological shill because I support the USSR even through my criticism of it

You have never criticized the USSR

You hide behind your a***yses and a veneer of over-education to hide the fact that you are intellectually bankrupt and that your politics are driven by you having an axe to grind against the USA.

Why would it somehow be a criticism that I have an axe to grind against the US
they killed members of my family for sport and ruined my nation by funding the proto-Taliban and Osama bin Laden
You’re a f***ing moron if you think Biden is a fascist. Biden is literally a social liberal in 2022.
