Lmao these are the people shedding crocodile tears over the gulags and here they are casually fantasizing about a gulag the Soviet Union could never come up with
And most of it was actually justified. There were a lot of Tsarist sympathizers, nobility, and reactionaries that had to go. Purges in the US are just like…environmentalists saying “Maybe we shouldn’t have lead in the water.”
Soviet Union: suppresses the Orthodox clergy for being complicit in a social arrangement under the tsar that amounted to low grade terrorism for the poor
United States: throws nuns in prison for doing roadblocks to protest nuclear arms
