The things that have been known for decades? Alright.
So Poland was a poor, innocent victim?
What is the 'official narrative' and which part do you call into question? Is there a Department of Official Narratives somewhere? I guess the USSR had an official narrative, though you probably wouldn't be happy to know what it is.
Is that a serious question? Next you're going to ask me what the official narrative about the Ukraine-Russia war is.
It's a serious question. Can you not answer it?
The official narrative is that Hitler was a genius but utterly retarded megalomaniac that wanted to conquer the entirety of Europe with a nation that wasn't even ready for a war with Poland and the Allies and Soviets only wanted to stop him.
Just like the Ukraine war is solely caused by Putins expansionists ambitions and the West only wants to save Ukraine.
Fortunately for him, the Poles - and French - were even less ready for war than the Wehrmacht. But this narrative isn't that far off. At the very least, he wanted to expand into eastern Europe and the USSR, cleanse the population there by starvation or massacres, and settle Germans there.
He may not have the intention of going West, but Realpolitk takes balance of power into account for a reason: a Germany that has gobbled up even the western parts of the USSR would be unstoppable. Even the USSR itself, with basically the territory that Germany was aiming at, would have been unstoppable, despite a counterproductive economic system.
Putin isn't Hitler though. And he's aiming only at historic Russian lands.
