According to polling in recent years, 75% of Russians say that Josef #Stalin was their nation’s greatest leader of all time. 🇷🇺
Image
Stalin’s approval rating amongst the Russian people has been growing exponentially in recent years.

This thread analyzes Levada polling data over the last 10 years. 📈
This thread attracted a pack of rabid NAFO fascist “fellas,” of course… haha 😂… I just had to hide & block a bunch of those mutts! 🐶
Watch this incredible 20-part documentary film about the Great Patriotic War and find out why the Russian people still love #Stalin, nearly 70 years after his death. 🚩
Compare the Russians ❤️ for Stalin to the American puppet president Boris Yeltsin — the least popular leader in Russian history!
In the 1991 referendum, 76% of the population wanted the Soviet Union to be preserved.

Yeltsin and his collaborators dismantled it anyway.

If this happened in your country, you’d be mad as hell too! 🤬

(That number still stands at 75% in recent Russian polling.)

The #NazisInUkraine pre-dated the German #Nazis by more than 2 decades.

Ukrainian nationalists exterminated Jews by the hundreds of thousands after 1917 because of their #communist politics, first and foremost. Race was a *secondary* consideration.

Watch the full lecture here. The professor’s remarks regarding the Ukrainian nationalists targeting of Jews due to their alleged Bolshevik politics begins 8 minutes and 19 seconds in.

I recommend watching the full video to grasp the full story.
I also made a video about this recently, with @RealCalebMaupin and @tjmac87 — connecting the anti-communist, anti-Jewish ideology of the Ukrainian nationalists with their German #Nazi collaborators.

It’s such important hidden history we MUST understand!

In the September 8, 1919 New York Times, the president of the Ukrainian Association of Jews warned US President Woodrow Wilson of the coming genocide that had already begun in #Ukraine.

He correctly predicted the exact number — 6 million — who would die in the #Nazi #Holocaust. ImageImage
These crimes of 1918-19 were not committed against Ukrainian Jews by Germans.

They were committed BY Ukrainian nationalists who over the next 2 decades would join forces with Nazi Germany.

This was the forgotten Holocaust before the Holocaust.

200,000 Jews were slaughtered between 1917-21 in #Ukraine — by any metric, a genocide.

Yet these pogroms are not even talked about by the #Holocaust Museums in the United States and Jerusalem.

It is vitally relevant to what happened in #WWII, and in today’s #UkraineRussiaWar.

This incredible footage was taken during the Constitutional Crisis of 1993, when tens of thousands of Russians turned out in the streets to defend the former Soviet Union and protest Boris Yeltsin — the LEAST popular leader in #Russia’s history!

Check out those “American values” the Yeltsin police forces learned from the Waco siege — which had occurred 6 months earlier in April 1993!
The Russian Constitutional Crisis clashes of 1993 make our January 6th look like child’s play.

These angry Soviets fought for their country they felt had been stolen from them — and they fought ferociously!

Every night at 8PM Central this weekend, I’ll be showing episodes of my recent talk with two American #communists, Tyler McConnell @tjmac87 and @RealCalebMaupin.

In Part 2 of “Making Alliances,” we ask: “what do #libertarians and Communists agree on?”

Lol I know this show will trigger some folks who might say that libertarians and communists can’t agree on a damn thing, but watch and you might be surprised!
Perhaps @RealSpikeCohen, @angela4LNCChair, and @ComicDaveSmith would enjoy this conversation as well. ☝️

You too @nick_brana!

On this #JFK Saturday, I’d like to share with you one of the weirdest pieces of Kennedy memorabilia in my collection:

The MORNING Extra edition of the Los Angeles Times for Friday, Nov. 22, 1963. 📰

Somebody goofed that headline! Image
Here’s the full front page: Image
Evidently the @latimes was in a hurry to get this Extra edition printed, and forgot to change the dateline from morning to afternoon.

#JFK was killed at 12:30 pm Dallas time (10:30 a.m. CA time), so perhaps it was a morning edition technically speaking but oh, that headline! Image

The notion of the Holodomor as a Soviet holocaust was #fakenews pushed by Ukrainian exiles anxious to cover up the #Nazi links of #Ukraine’s anti-Soviet resistance. It was embraced by American conservatives eager to exploit it as anti-#Russia talking point msuweb.montclair.edu/~furrg/vv.html
On November 30, 2022 the German parliament sacrificed historical truth and declared its support for a historical forgery that originated with the Ukrainian nationalists, the German #Nazis, and in right-wing, historical revisionist anti-#communist circles.

Just for tweeting this, I will get reported to the German government under the new law, just for writing about it from a critical perspective.
