Any More Stalinists Out There Who Think Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Ukraine Should Be Part of Russia? Maybe You Want to Re-Partition Poland Again?

🙄

We know you're out there. Come out of the closet.

When Vladimir Putin described the breakup of the Soviet Union as the greatest catastrophe of the 20th Century, that's what he is talking about. That Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Ukraine threw off their communist shackles and become free independent nations for the first time since the pre-World War II era.

Not a Stalinist. I don't care one way or the other.
Aren't many Stalinists still alive. How about Putinists?

You "don't care" if people have freedom.

🤔

Interesting.

@beckyromero if one expresses the opinion that some people should be free, pretty soon the US wants to invade. Of course they should be free, but I don't want to advocate for the worst outcome.

So what is it you prefer exactly?
@beckyromero i guess that it doesn't matter as long as it doesn't affect him... sadly, not everyone is good at putting others before themselves... 😟

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me — and there was no one left to speak for me.

@beckyromero but they didn't finally come for you, because you were them

Want to be clear.

Are you directing your comment at me or at Martin Niemöller?

@beckyromero I was making a joke. Not accusing anybody of being a Nazi.
