    Yeah, when you organize your army based on politics and not on, you know, military capability, you end up sucking at war and need to make it up in numbers. You ignore intelligence of imminent invasion you let hundreds of thousands of troops get encircled and begging the Yankees for resources.

          Why would I need to seriously argue against what is essentially tropes, including the asiatic hordes trope? Your argument speaks for itself.

          Compare the size of the soviet army at the start of the war to the size of the French and German armies. Now compare the Soviet delaying actions to the invasion of France.

              Remind me how many French and British troops were bypassed and encircled during the invasion of France?

              Remember that the combined forces in France were much larger and more mechanized than the soviet army during barbarossa, and were invaded by less troops

                  Literally just look up the numbers on Wikipedia(or whatever other center-right source you consider credible) and stop embarrassing yourself.

                    Wikipedia literally quotes Soviet archives. If that is center right, I’m curious to know what is left.
