Indeed, actions speak louder than words. And what Britain and France did, was help Germany invade Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland. And ensured Fascism would win in Spain. When Adolf wanted an army, a navy, an airforce, they gave it to him.

Appeasement worked. Germany went to war.

In justification of the crucifixion of Czechoslovakia at Munich it was said that [the Soviet Union] could not be trusted and that her assistance would not be worth much in any case. On the points there could be honest difference of opinion, but not about the diplomatic record. Certainly the Czech Government did not doubt [the Soviet Union]'s sincerity. At a session of the Harris Institute at the University of Chicago in August 1939 I asked President [of Czechoslovakia] Benes whether [the Soviet Union] would have supported him had he decided to fight in September 1938. He replied, without an instant's hesitation: "There was never any doubt in my mind that [the Soviet Union] would aid us by all the ways open to her, but I did not dare to fight with [Soviet] aid alone, because I knew that the British and French Governments would make out of my country another Spain."

All the [the Soviet Union] is just replacing Russia (the author likes using Russia instead of SU), it changes the quote in no way.

Russia leaving is apparently never an option when they talk about possible solutions

Yes.. it isn't. Thats how reality works. Russia isn't going to just up and leave. They aren't going to have thousands of their own people killed and then just... nothing. They have goals, they want to meet them, and if not then at least get somewhat of a victory. The people in Russia aren't going to like "oh, we just left". I don't fucking understand how people can say "the war ends when russia [just up and leaves]". This isn't fantasy land, that isn't how it works. Russia will leave, if Ukraine negotiates a peace with them. If Russia wants land then UK has to negotiate for that not to happen.

This is the problem with "tankie", nobody can actually define it.

You, attempting to refute that it's "woke" but for liberals, proved that it is "woke" for liberals.

They are not socialist. They are "Social Democratic", capitalism, but the workers get a bigger share. The parasites known as Capitalists, or Burg... fucking french... Bourgeoisie, are still a thing. The workers do not own the tools.
