Their favorite one: “The Nazis did it because it’s mentioned in the Nuremberg indictment. Sure, it’s not in the verdict, but that’s the same thing.”
(It isn’t)
“The British and American judges thought so too.”
(Even though they later wrote in their memoirs that the Soviet judge was desperately trying to pin it on the Nazis)
“The fact that the Nazis disclosed their defense witnesses immediately while we were allowed to hold ours back until the very last moment is completely normal.”
“Soviet witnesses changed their testimony because they suddenly remembered correctly.”
“One of our key witnesses not being prosecuted for collaboration with the enemy is just a coincidence.”
“Every Russian president and the State Duma only admitted it was a Soviet war crime to score political points with the West.”
And my personal favorite:
“The reason Stalin said “idk maybe in Manchuria” when the Poles asked where their officers were, instead of saying they had been killed by the Nazis, was that he was trying to protect them. That’s also why he erased their bureaucratic trail after they arrived in the camps.”
And that is just the tip of the iceberg
I’m not sure whether the denialists are better or worse than the tankies who insist Stalin was just ridding Poland of fascists.
Too long ain’t gonna read. Stalin was a chill humble weed smoker and my personal friend

It’s “date” not “data”. My apologies
[From Wikipedia:](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyn_massacre#Discovery)
*The Germans brought in a European Red Cross committee called the Katyn Commission, comprising 12 forensic experts and their staff, from occupied Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, Vichy France, Hungary, Italy, the occupied Netherlands, Romania, Switzerland, and occupied Bohemia and Moravia. The Germans were so intent on proving the Soviets were behind the massacre they even included some Allied prisoners of war, among them writer Ferdynand Goetel, a Polish Home Army prisoner from Pawiak.*
Tankies are the champions in mental gymnastics
How many times is this going to be reposted
Why are people talking so much about the Katyn Massacre so much recently?
The current interpretation of these zyebs is that the murdered Poles were fascists.
The bizarre thing about that is that I have never heard poles mentioning Polish operation in Soviet union where Societs just grabbed more than 100 thousand polish people and a couple dozen thousands with vaguely polish surnames and just executed most of them. It was during 1930s way before 1939 but people always bring up Katyn
Whatever the Soviet actions were it led to the defeat of Nazi Germany. Can’t imagine Poles would’ve preferred the Germans.
