Oh look holocaust trivialization
No country is an angel though, at the same time Britain was intentionally starving Indians and the US had Japanese American citizens (including children) in concentration camps
I dont know when but within the context of conversations it was before they left China
I've talked to Chinese foreign exchange students who learned about it in school

Hey, just so you know for when you make decisions in the future, calling socialist states fascists is rooted in double genocide theory.

I love it when people call a transitional economy state capitalist because it betrays a lack of understanding of actually existing capitalism and the role the state plays in it.

Also yeah Yeltsin was a real hero, just don't ask what he did after he bombarded parliament, and don't ask why the US had to interfere in former USSR elections including the 1996 Russian election to make sure that nationalists and not communists won.

I am however saying that regardless of the facts
That's nice, have a good day!

Cowbee already answered your question but I'd like to point out that as a German you really need to be careful about what propaganda you believe about the Soviet Union and Stalin. Keep in mind that Germans killed 26 million soviet citizens less than a hundred years ago.
