I couldn’t agree more! As an American, whenever I turn on the television, walk into a school, visit a social network, or open a book, I am almost guaranteed to be immediately bombarded with messages about how great Bolshevism was and how Joseph Stalin was a fine politician. Day in and day out it’s crap like how he supposedly provided famine relief to Ukrainians or tried to form an antifascist alliance with London and Paris. You’ll never find a single communist familiar with any of the horrible things he’s done! You can always find somebody talking about how capitalists supposedly ‘partitioned’ Sudetenland, but you never see anybody even mention the Molotov Cocktease Pact!

If you are an anticommunist, you constantly read and hear this same shit over and over again: an American General continued an Axis concentration camp, American and Axis forces collaborated to suppress Asian communism, an American bank supported Mussolini, the American govt. forgave most of Fascist Italy’s war debt, the Italian Fascists massacred approximately one million people—ARRRRRRRRRRGH! SHUT THE FUCK UP LITERALLY EVERYBODY ALREADY KNOWS ABOUT THESE!!!
