Idk, that seems pretty clear that the soviets and nazis were working jointly. I don't think the title would be improved by adding extremely specific language that changes the meaning very little.
It sounds like they invaded at the same time, not together, and a "joint invasion" clarification in the title would be great.
I was going to find an example of a country being invaded by two major powers that weren't working together and yeah, there's not very many, but its a churlish point to make that misses the actual argument. I do see your point. Calling it 'whitewashing' is a bit of a stretch, but I can see how it underemphasizes the degree to which the nazis / soviets were coordinating.
The title has been updated since I posted the comment you’re replying to
Lmao oh, thank you. I forget Lemmy doesn't indicate edits particularly well
