• This is kind of interesting considering that you’ve claimed that the repression was most severe under his successors.

    I claimed the russification process was more severe, not the executions. It’s well known that as a part of destalinization the executions largely stopped. That doesn’t mean the Union stopped promoting russification.

    If you have a source that claims the opposite, feel free to share it.

      You’re making the claims, you get the source. It’s really not that hard.

      You don’t have a source? It’s ok. Don’t make claims, only repeat things you checked the source for.

      No investigation, no right to speak.

          You provided a second claim from somebody else. That’s not a source. Sources include verifiable facts.

              If you had actually bothered to link the specific instances where he sources those claims, we would have read them.

              But you didn’t, because you probably didn’t read a book you want us to go on a wild goose chase for. Eyewitness accounts from anglos are only good enough to wipe your ass with and even then there’s better alternatives.

              No facts then? Cool, I thought so.
