And the pictures they used?
They literally used pictures from the 1922 famine and claimed it was from the 1930's famine
Very reliable

oh they are too sure
redspark incendiarynewsservice and ndfp are not propaganda
@ACentralScrutinizer well sputnik might be propaganda but that stuff about the photo dating is true
And you see the writers of the black book falling for it and using that same incorrect dating
Using 1920s photos when talking about the 1930s
Why even attempt to apologize for Stalinism and the Soviet Union
It’s blatantly noncommunism
Märx would not approve of communism in one state
Full communism and socialism are diffrent
I'm not "apologising" for anything and I'm not ML
I just hate to see blatantly false info
I don't think this is worthwhile discussion between leftists but the facts and information need to be laid down because this is an unfortunate obstacle we have to overcome when teaching people
I know socialism and communism are different, full communism is the end goal (which is impossible of course)
And that’s fair man, im just so used to the constant soviet and Stalin apologists here who try and meme
DURR PAPA STALIN GOOD NEVER DID NO BAD HOLODOMOR A COMPLETE HOAX
Okay
DURRT STALIN KILL 10000 BILLION
So the Holodomor just didn’t happen ?
DUURRRR MUH HOLODOMOR
MUH GREAT LEAP
STALIN MAN BAD
NAZI PROPAGANDA GOOD
He was objectively a cunt though
Now that you’ve got that out of your system, are you willing to meet me in the middle?
Nazi propaganda bad, soviet propaganda bad
How hard was that?
being a cringy tankie fanboy helps nobody, however dispelling common reactionary talking points about communism is useful
Capitalist propaganda bad
and that requires talking about the USSR, both good and bad sides
