Yes, your point?

My point is that anti-socialist woo is dependent on "I experienced" and "I saw" and "I photographed", not any actual, concrete evidence.
We saw this especially in 2017 when Republicans attacked socialism - is if any of you creepy racist fatsos even knew what "socialize" is.

Firstly, this book covers the injustices done on behalf of the Soviet Regime in Russia, we're talking about full blown communism here.
Secondly, that doesn't discredit the entire book or any of the evenings that took place in it, now remove your false flag faggot, show us the leaf
Brandon Collins
I guess all pre-video history should be discarded then.
Joshua Myers
It does discredit the entirety of the books contents. Unlike the Holocaust or Khmer Rouge genocide, there are no records of genocide at Russian Gulags. What's the woo that anti-socialists push? "They destroyed all the records!!!"
How convenient!
No because we can find fossils and scrolls and whatnot.

What guarantees that whoever wrote them wasn't making shit up?

Natalya Reshetovskaya, a Russian chemist who twice married the dissident writer Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn, and questioned the famous account he gave of Stalin's prison camps in ''The Gulag Archipelago,'' died in Moscow on May 28. She was 84.
In her 1974 memoir, ''Sanya: My Life with Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn'' (Bobbs-Merrill), she wrote that she was ''perplexed'' that the West had accepted ''The Gulag Archipelago'' as ''the solemn, ultimate truth,'' saying its significance had been ''overestimated and wrongly appraised.''
Pointing out that the book's subtitle is ''An Experiment in Literary Investigation,'' she said that her husband did not regard the work as ''historical research, or scientific research.'' She contended that it was, rather, a collection of ''camp folklore,'' containing ''raw material'' which her husband was planning to use in his future productions.
Luis Johnson
Sounds interesting, what's it about?
Unlike the holocaust, the testimonies of the victims of soviet gulags are still within the realm of possibility unlike the roller coasters that went into ovens, masturbation death machines, and pedal powered brain mashing machines that holocaust victims claim exsisted.
That's why I'm more inclined to believe the testimonies found in Gulag archipelago over most Holocaust testimonies
>the records were destroyed
On top of that, Gopniks never kept good records in the first place

Yes, it's clear to see where his sources come from throughout the book, sometimes he cites from memory, other times from other works and documents.
Take it with a grain of salt when it's from memory

I began this earlier today.
The fact that the author is half-French(?) and half-German, seems to lend itself to create an almost more, I don't know, not poetical, but a little bit looser, and more emotional style, than Storm of Steel for example, which is as German as it gets. Anyway I'm invested heavily in it already.
Actually bought it after an Australian recommended it in one of these threads on here.
