While soviet regime terrorized those on "new territories" soviet propaganda bombarded the rest of population with stories how arrival of USSR saved poor Latvians/....

This is why average Russian believes USSR was paradise for everybody ... advance Russians helping all the rest ... such a crap....

That’s why Trump loves Putin so much. That’s his role model

Someone must have told Trump about this, and now he wants to beat the record

I know many but not all of the horrors committed by Russians. They have an entire highway in Siberia built with slave labour under which the bones are turning to dust.

I will always remember a guided tour in Tallin, where an old woman with icy eyes told us with a flat voice “And first were the Danes, and Estonians of old resented them. Then came the Germans, and they hated them. Then came the Russians, and we learned the true meaning of the word ‘hate’”.

You just gave Elon musk a hard-on.

Thank you. The world needs to be reminded of these vile deeds because history repeats itself.

The Russians are fascists and have always been aggressive to their naboes through history.

This is what “conservatives”forget; this type of behavior had very little to do with the Soviet Union being communist, and a whole lot to do with the Soviet Union being dominated by the Russian state

Minority ethnic groups have always been a prime target for extermination and exploitation by Ru

Not just Russia.
Seems to be a racial/class superiority thing amongst humans.

pragmaticowl.bsky.social•83 days ago

Well, sure, my thesis was more about how the central purpose of the Russian state is to expand to natural geographic barriers and forcibly integrate or destroy any ethnicities that may be a roadblock to that goal

Not so with every state, though every people group is guilty of this at some point
