lmao, more Soviet apologia about how it was the most progressive and democratic country in the world, while also blowing the usual Holodomor denial whistle about how it was just the ‘kulaks’ and other ‘class enemies’ who were suppressed.
The PEOPLE’S single-candidate elections picked by party apparatchiks! The PEOPLE’S gulags for gay folk! The PEOPLE’S purges of officials by a dictator! The PEOPLE’S deportation of Ukrainian peasants living at a subsistence level to Siberian GULAG!
He doesn’t actually address the comparison to Nakba apologia either, just goes off about how the Nakba is bad (it is, but that’s not what’s being pointed out, lmao). Guess it might have be too sensitive a point for him to attempt an actual rebuttal to, even in his fascist circlejerk.
Also, “I didn’t DEFEND ethnic cleansing, I just said it was totally understandable given the material conditions!”
👅🥾
