YUROP
Welcome to YUROP
The Ultimate Eurozone of Culture, Chaos, and Continental Excellence
A glorious gathering place to celebrate (and lovingly roast) the lands, peoples, quirks, and contradictions of Her Most Magnificent Europa. From the fjords to the Med, the steppes to the Atlantic spray, this is a shrine to everything that makes Europe gloriously weird, wonderfully diverse, and occasionally passive-aggressive in 24 languages.
Here we toast:
πͺπΊ The progressive Union of Peace (and paperwork)
π§ The freest of health care
π· The finest of foods
π³οΈβπ The liberalest of liberties
π The proud non-members and honorary cousins
πΆ And the eternal dance of unity, confusion, and cultural banter.
Post memes, news, satire, linguistic wars, train maps, cursed food photos, Eurovision fever, propaganda and whatever makes you scream βonly in YUROP.β
Leave your stereotypes at the border control and enjoy the ride.
No. Many nazis committed suicide at the end of the war, some were put to trial, but most suffered from amnesia for the years between 1933 and 1945 and were used to rebuild the Germanies.
Ideologically, the Soviets waged a class war and aimed for world revolution in the name of "scientific marxism". They prosecuted the upper and middle class, nationalists, religious groups, the cultural and academic elite of all non-russian groups, and everybody politically aligned to any political group except Stalinism.
Of course β Stalinism and Nazism being pretty similar, to Stalin-era Soviets as to modern Rashism, the word "nazi" does not mean "a follower of National Socialist ideology", but "everybody I view as enemy". If you accept their definition, everybody they persecuted was a nazi, of course.
