Stalingrad is symbol of Victory of soviet people against inhumanity of german racism against slavic people and not symbol of city of Stalin like it was before war. Our grandfathers died in this city to save future for us and this was great and heroic Victory. Many wants to reduce meaning of Stalingrad battle and fact that Soviet Union destroyed wehrmacht. Up to 75% of german military forces was in eastern front fought against USSR, and they was broken and destroyed in their lair! All that germans did on our land and with our people can't be compared even with holocaust. They destroyed much more soviet civilian ppl than jews in concentration camps.
I don't say that repressions made by Stalin regime is ok or something. It abominations in my eyes as told before. For all innosent people who was repressed by political reasons it was big tragedy. People suffered. But who told you about millions of executed during repressions? What books do you read? Solzhenitsin? or whatever his name in english... Phew.. Or maybe you didn't read about it any book, but heard it on TV or internet?
Show me documentary evidences about "millions" executed people by Stalin. Can you find it? Nah you can't. Cause its another brainwashed western propaganda myth. In other word lies.
Educated people knows that western(usa) system of propaganda took most things and methods of Ministry Propaganda of Dr. Goebbels. And use with success. They just modified it to modern state. Big Brother. Like Chuck Palahniuk wrote: “Big Brother isn’t watching. He’s singing and dancing. He’s pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother’s busy holding your attention every moment you’re awake. He’s making sure you’re always distracted. He’s making sure you’re fully absorbed.” If you know i mean... If you preffer to believe what they told you its your choice, go live with banded eyes like blindmen, let them inspire you. And i'm talking not about Stalin and soviet terror regime. Basicly you should be don't care about all those past days happened in far cold Russia where bears dancing on streets...
They can make enemy from anyone and make you think that its right to destroy them, and bring "democracy" by fire and death to other people. And almost noone could stop them... Think about that.
So let us decide how deal with our history, that war, Great Patriotic War, for you it's ww2 - touched every family of russian ppl, every family lost at least one its member. We should rememeber all those victims adn heroic act of bravery of our grandfathers who lied down for freedom and peace on Earth. Believe me there is a lot of bastards here in Russia who want to get rid of it. To erase our history to show that it was nothing... Those brats don't need your help, they do well and without you. You have more important things than to have stomach ache about things you barely know well.
And about baltic countries. Let them scream, noone cares about them. Its their prerogative to scream more than others. How else they could attract attention to themselves? Let them better look into mirror and deal with neonazzism inside their countries instead hate Russia! Maybe then they'll feel better...
