    The worst part about this is that it wasn’t a one time sort of thing. The forced relocation was enforced until just before the Soviet Union fell. As a note, every other ethnic group that Stalin forced into relocation were allowed to begin returning home in 1956, but not the Crimean Tatars.

    Stalin also tried to kill them off via famine in the 1920s.

    The Russians committed so many genocides to natives all over Eurasia you cant even count them…yet no one today cares. There are whole groups of people basically erased because of them

    Anyone else feel a very distinct narrative being pushed with these last few posts?

    I seem to have touched a nerve.

      First the Anne Frank graphic novel, now this comment. Fascists really hate the “narrative” of historical truth.

      There’s CCP and Kremlin propaganda all over Lemmy, of course people will tell the truth to counter it.

    Stalin was a big fan of genocide, especially in Ukraine. He also deported all the Jews to Siberia and created a “Jewish Oblast” in the middle of nowhere, the only place Soviet Jews were allowed to live unless they were extremely useful.

    What a colossal bastard. His only benefit was he fought Hitler.

      And he was perfectly happy to work with Hitler until Hitler betrayed him with Barbarossa. Colossal bastard doesn’t begin to describe what an absolute fuckface he was.
