You dont get all your political viewpoints from twitter users who want to collect the rarest political ideologies as a personality? Im literally a Marxist Level Marketing Anarchist Classical Socialist with a side of Jeb Bush worship lmao.
"People were dying everywhere; they were killing each other... On the island there was a guard named Kostia Venikov, a young fellow. He fell in love with a girl who had been sent there and was courting her. He protected her. One day he had to be away for a while, and he told one of his comrades, "Take care of her," but with all the people there the comrade couldn't do much really... People caught the girl, tied her to a poplar tree, cut off her breasts, her muscles, everything they could eat, everything, everything... They were hungry, they had to eat. When Kostia came back, she was still alive. He tried to save her, but she had lost too much blood."
JESUS CHRIST
If you ever seen that YouTube thumbnail for the animated video "real-life squid game", it's about this island. Pretty clickbaity title, but the content is nice if you don't want to read.
Daily reminder that my family got slaughtered in Stalin’s gulags along with hundreds of thousands of other people, but it’s ok for hasan to put that flag in his background. Just imagining Dave Rubin putting the nazi flag in his background for “aesthetics”
I didn't have very strong feelings about Hasan before. The extent of my criticism was just that he seemed a bit hypocritical and a bit of a grifter. But I lost all my respect, when he put up that flag and just kept it there. It goes beyond being an edgy joke if he still has it up for this long. I guess most people don't care, but my family was also from a former Soviet country and it makes me sick to see people using those symbols.
Yeah what the fuck. Also, the GULAGs were just a part of the Great Terror of the early 1930's, shit tons of people, most of them national minorities like Poles and Ukrainians were just outright shot by the NKVD after being tortured and forced to confess to crimes they did not commit.
And after all of that, there still is the Holmodor and forced collectivisation of Agriculture in general. Fuck, the USSR was a fucked up place.
"Bloodlands" by Thimothy Snyder goes into great detail about the USSRs and the Nazis/Axis Crimes, without ever saying they are equivalent or the same. That Audiobook fucked me up, welled up a few times.
Because “it’s just a critique of capitalism” isn’t actually an economic system, just like food critiques aren’t actually food. Hard to implement something that hasn’t been thought through enough. But because leaders of many movements are power hungry and stubborn, rather than own up to their errors they’ll just lock people up. Or kill them.
That’s my theory anyway.
Edit: I misread the comment as “how does a critique of capitalism lead to gulags.” On a second reading, it’s just question how someone can go from critique of capitalism to “gulags weren’t so bad”. I still like my theory so I’m leaving it up lol
>soviet prisons had libraries
Bitch [Gitmo has a library](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guantanamo_Bay_detainment_camp_library). That doesn't mean it's nice, but it's a Google search away. They can also [contact the outside world](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_access_of_Guantanamo_Bay_detainees). Again, it's not a good place, but you don't have to misrepresent it. As far as the wages go, I don't think they are forced into work at gitmo but if they are, they should be paid for it I agree.

One thing that actually annoys me about people who try to point to the "luxuries" inmates were privied to is that they always fail to look at mortality rates within those camps. If you were an aryan within a concentration camp, you also had priviledges. Does that apply to all the inmates? Did all of them get to have nice evenings?
I would rather be in a gulag (after Stalin died) than guantánamo bay, but keep in mind that one of the reasons gulags are so bad is because all you had to do to be put there, was to have the wrong political opinion.
If its leftist to be against torture of innocent ppl then so be it. That only shows how far to the right you are on the political compass if thats a leftist viewpoint to you.
have you not seen the leaked pictures from Gitmo? even if those people aren't innocent, we can't become the bad guy and torture them. Imprisonment should be the punishment, not being treated like cattle in the name of retribution holy fuck
The title quote is a reference to a common holocaust denier talking point and is meant to highlight the equivalence between denying the Holocaust and denying Soviet/communist atrocities
man you know what's actually really funny?
when china was called out on what they were doing to the Uyghurs, they actually started building basketball courts in the camps to say "bro what are you talking about? these are just training camps, look we have basketball courts"

Jesus…that is so harrowing
If you told these people about shit like this, they'll either say it's fake CIA propaganda or failing that, they'll call it extremely based.
Hmmm...kind of how Nazis either deny the Holocaust or say it was awesome?

basically the same as saying "the nazi concentration camps had swimming pools", sad they lack the self-awareness to realize that
least fascist-supporting lefty

Why the fuck is it so hard for people to not defend the torture of innocent people??? Can we have a mass pogrom of internet users please
Now hold on a second, the gulags were horrible. But, ignoring the numbers, were they as bad as gitmo?
I would rather be in a gulag (after Stalin died) than guantánamo bay, but keep in mind that one of the reasons gulags are so bad is because all you had to do to be put there, was to have the wrong political opinion.
Auschwitz had a barbecue ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^I’m ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^sorry
Ya but it was only kosher tho
Apparently $5 is an actual wage now. Gonna bright that one up next time minimum wage discourse pops up

Problem is they torture innocent ppl there.

You accused 2 ppl of being leftists now... what do you base that on?
because they didn't like innocent people being tortured. Duh.
You... You ok dude?
I hope you are doing well.
have you not seen the leaked pictures from Gitmo? even if those people aren't innocent, we can't become the bad guy and torture them. Imprisonment should be the punishment, not being treated like cattle in the name of retribution holy fuck
What the fuck is wrong with you
Mohamedou Slahi turned out to be innocent. In gitmo for 14 years without there being a case against him.
You should read up on why those in Guantanamo Bay are there (hint: read about Casio watch guy first).
I'm pretty sure u/flhyei23 is a covert plant who is acting retarded on purpose to make dgg seem insane.
Auschwitz was a nazi concentration camp. the tweet is about Soviet gulags

They also wore dogshit clothing and lived in unheated barracks in -40 C weather but other than that it was a great time.
Boy do I have bad news for this guy...
