    Uncommon Soviet L. Germany should’ve never been allowed to reunify, it should’ve been divided further and mostly absorbed into its neighbors.

    At the end of WW2 the unification of Germany was still in living memory, and there were two world wars because it. Germany should not be a sovereign state.

      Very true! The german people are 100% to blame for causing the second interimperialist war! Interimperialism ofc means “a battle between the forces of good and evil”!!! Material conditions and economic analysis of empire? Irrelevant!!!Their intrinsic national cultural of prussian militarism means they cant be trusted. Wholesome beans france, belgium, netherlands, switzlerland, britain and yankland were wholsome defenders of wholesome democracy against the evil authoritarian krauts!! If not for the wursteaters there would have been no imperialist wars (imperialist particles flood the brain when you start to speak german (not not swissgerman or dutch!!)!!) Thats why wurstland should have been divided among these peaceloving, antiracist and antiimperialist powers who would certainly repopulate germany with peaceloving french and british blood!!!1!!!11

      /s in case it wasnt clear. Marx’s warty ass how are 13 people upbearing this idealist bullshit

      Marxism and the National Question

      A nation is a historically constituted, stable community of people, formed on the basis of a common language, territory, economic life, and psychological make-up manifested in a common culture.

      Only thing missing there is the shared territory due to the occupation. I don’t tend to believe that the Rhinelanders share a language or common culture with France, for example. Other than that, balkanized Germany at the Polish border would serve less geopolitical interests than if they had managed to secure a neutral buffer country, with the possibility of an eventual SED victory.

        Rhinelanders dont have that much in common with France in fact the regions bordering France faced constant monarchial and imperialist pressure by it.

        The French King sent Marshal Montclas with 50,000 men “that the Palatinate should be made a desert.” And then during the Nine Years’ War the French Minister of war Louvois allegedly told to “burn down the palatinate”. The devastation which happened due to it made the name of tge officer who executed those acts (Mélac) synonymous with murder and arson. Also a very popular dog name haha.
