I understand this mentality. The family at the center of the story ate nothing but moldy yams for four straight months to survive. How does one find the perseverance to continue under those conditions?
The brave Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the famous Russian writer who has been called the “Conscience of the 20th Century,” served eight long years in the Soviet Gulag prison system. Today, he is hated by top-level Jews in America and around the world because he exposed the Jewish leadership of the genocide of 66 million Communist Gulag victims.
The largest number of victims were Christian believers, understandable since the revolutionary Jews despised and hated Jesus and the Christians. 66 million innocent people were kidnapped and eventually died a hideous death at the hands of the Jewish “Ivan the Terrible” corps of mostly Jewish Gulag overlords!
The greatest Jewish hatred is reserved for the fearless few who dare to reveal to the world the heinous crimes committed by the Jewish Power in the Communist Gulag.
Solid post. The reality of where tyranny leads needs to be shown to the brainwashed public constantly; the media (famously including the NY Times, which whitewashed the mega-murdering Soviet regime from the start), most of the education system, and much else in the Establishment have been soft-pedaling the horrors of Communism and even promoting it for generations.
EVERY Communist regime is and has been a mass-murder machine of epic dimensions.
Plenty of non-Communist regimes have also; POWER (as Tolkien described it) is the problem, although Communism includes a particularly robust mind parasite designed to get the targeted victims (i.e., everyone other than those at the top) excited about creating the "Workers Paradise" that (surprise!) turns out to be a prison-and-death-camp society where EVERYTHING is owned and controlled by a small, murderous clique.
Probably the best resource on the topic is The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression
-- $64.75 in Hardback (and no Kindle version available), but if you have the cash and an interest in the truth about Communism, this book -- written by a group of left-leaning European scholars and published by Harvard University Press right at the end of the 20th Century -- is a must-have for your bookshelf. Includes (sometimes horrific) photographs.
From the description at Amazon:
As the death toll mounts―as many as 25 million in the former Soviet Union, 65 million in China, 1.7 million in Cambodia, and on and on―the authors systematically show how and why, wherever the millenarian ideology of Communism was established, it quickly led to crime, terror, and repression. An extraordinary accounting, this book amply documents the unparalleled position and significance of Communism in the hierarchy of violence that is the history of the twentieth century.
Thank you for sharing this info. I believe some people use the terms Marxist or Maoist without realizing the history behind them. The mind control behind them is terrifying.
Yes, it truly is, and people NEED to learn the truth and BECOME terrified of it. Communism should NEVER be portrayed as compassionate or "trendy" -- it is simply evil and creates Hell on Earth.
Considering the number of FEMA camps in every state, I don’t doubt it.
its why the leftists are shattered now.
they lost it all
That’s how close we were. I was hoarding food and building a bunker.

Depending on the source, I have read that 40 - 70 million Chinese died during Mao's Great Leap Forward.
Correct. Starved to death. Also the chinese scale of death is incredible. The Korean war, Great leap forward, Cultural revolution Etc
HOW COULD THIS (GULAG ARCHIPELAGO) HAVE HAPPENED?
Solzhenitsyn = Response: “Man has forgotten God.”

Perhaps we should put the shoe on the other foot and let Obama, Clinton, and Bush find out what it feels like.
There is a good movie based on the book Balzac seamstress about the cultural revolution period
Who do these people think they are?
I can't imagine doing these things to other humans.
