You have the option to but you shouldn't be forced to
How’s everyone?
Good hbu
Killing my brothers and sisters in faith, etc.
Oh
you do realize the number of people stalin "killed" is greatly exaggerated. Unless the Soviet Union released s statement saying how many people it killed there is really no way to know
exaggerated? with that logic I'd say that it could be the other way
Yeah if you want to believe that. Burning churches, killing priests.
that was exactly what happened in the soviet union. People who worked (meaning everyone) made money according to their jobs
I really don't know how communism works
salty is streaming boys
Communism bad, capitalism good
simple
what i am saying is you can not know for sure. you have to understand a lot of the info you have on the soviet union came from america and news outlets, which acted as propaganda as the ussr was an enemy to the us
Should have honestly taken patton's advice. Take Moscow while they were down.
Yeah I remember how the United States created the Red Scare where you could accuse your neighbor of being a Communist spy and have them killed
If anything, the count is low. Mass grave sites are still being found to this day.
With church family who left the ussr for their safety and the right to practice their faith and not risk being imprisoned or killed it says something.
America loves to cover up its past but I can guarantee it's not the only country that does that
its not just that, the us and the ussr were major enemies. they had an arms race and both fed propagande to its citizens regarding the other
we probably won't ever know, but it is what it is
I try to be an optimist, but I don't see that as being exaggerated
So you do not condemn the USSR?
as a russian myself, i have many relatives who were born and lived in the ussr their whole lives
yeah, my great-grandparents left for those reasons
Take the Berlin wall for an example
The ussr had secret police to snitch on your neighbors
One side was communist, one was capitalist
that was in the very begining after the revolution as the country was vulnerable and they couldnt have someone penetrate them from the inside
My Orthodox family, and my Orthodox priests who had to leave their homes and families and parishioners to save themselves. Glory be to the martyrs but it should never have happened.
after that it wasnt there
Doesn't make it right and it was still happening during Stalin reign
Do you know what happened to Berlin after WW2?
Or no
I don't know much about that time period, but I really doubt that they stopped something like that
again, there was no burning of churches past the 1930s as religion was completely abolished during Stalin's reign
Stalin was a ruthless man he earned the title man of steel
i have read a bit but please say what exactly you are referring to
Exactly. You are okay with killing people for their faith.
Men, women and children were shot if they tried to escape the Soviet side in Berlin into US territory.
Whoa whoa whoa we don't need to make any blood sacrifices
Face it countries did a lot of scummy shit Russia, America, etc.
