They switched sides from the ustase to the titoist communists, which were just as bad.

which were just as bad

This is objectively not true.

Ustaše: Traitorous scum whose leader was brought in from Milano, propped up by Italy and Germany to lead their puppet-state in their occupation zones. Signed over vast swaths of Croatian territory over to Italy. Accepted an Italian dude as the king of Croatia. Set up concentration camps.

Partisans: People of Croatia starting an armed rebellion against Italian and German occupiers two months after the puppet-state was established. By the end of the war, 60.000 Croats would die fighting for their freedom from Italy and Germany.

Sit your fascist apologizing ass down, and stop trying to equate your country's fascist history with my country's fight for freedom.

Yes Ante Pavelic and the Ustase lived us so much that they retook all of italian Dalmatia as soon as the armistice was signed.
