Great line from Jeet Heer:
Whatever else you want to say about the Bolsheviks, we should never forget that it was the Red Army that crushed Hitler. By contrast, the Republicans haven’t even been able to defeat the Taliban, who will be governing Afghanistan again soon enough.

That said, the Red Army didn’t do so hot in Afghanistan either.
The Red Army in 1944-5 was not Bolshevik, it was Marxist-Leninist. This matters, as Stalin purged the Army twice beforehand — which is why Hitler was able to penetrate to Moscow in the first place.
That statement is not great, it’s petty, inaccurate, and just plain immature.
What’s up your ass lately?
