Oh yes, my friend, I knew someone would repeat me this soviet narrative. I urge you to read about Mr. Jones or watch a film about these events. Regarding gulags, it’s the same as telling me about concentration camps built by the Nazis. They also claimed it was just for labor, you know. I see you are well prepared with communist materials, it’s the same as entering communist class in the Soviet Union and expecting they will share the truth.

There have been millions of Mr. Joneses so you’ll need to be more specific. In the meantime,

Domenico Losurdo, 2008, Stalin: The History and Critique of a Black Legend

Those aren’t arguments, they’re vague, empty rhetoric.

No, now you're doing holocaust minimization by supporting Double Genocide Theory. Read Blackshirts and Reds.
