Are you lost?
And... Did you really just copy and paste from Marxists.org? The entire page from "Reply to an Inquiry of the Jewish News Agency in the United States"?
And how naughty of you, you didn't even credit it as your source like it asked! That doesn't seem very comrade of you!
so not only did you come into the house of a Ukrainian Jew quoting St*lin at them as if it refutes an entire book on antisemitism in the Soviet Union, you just copied and pasted an entire web page w/o sourcing. Fun!
For more of my sources on the antisemitism of the Soviet Union I suggest:
Antisemitism Without Jews: Communist Eastern Europe by Paul Lendval (More about antisemitism in commie places but what is even better is that it is all the more baffling because it is post-WW2 in areas where surprise there weren't all that many Jews anymore!) Power and Policy in the USSR by Robert Conquest (wherein you get to see all the fun things that were made law and all the things that were actually done! Including where Jews were concerned!) The Black Book of Communism by Nicolas Werth, Jean-Louis Margolin, Jean-Louis Panné, Karel Bartosek, Andrzej Paczkowski, Robert Laffont (some of them former commies who said writing the book was their penance!) A Century of Violence in Soviet Russia by Alexander N. Yakovlev (do you know who he was, little commie? Member of the Politburo and Secretariat of the Party throughout the 1980s? Instrumental in bringing about perestroika? Airer of all the dirty little secrets including the antisemitism?)
Pictured: The spine of a book titled The Unredeemed: Anti-semitism in the Soviet Union
Succinct and to the point. Who could ask for more in a book title?
Published in 1968. A roughly 300 page book that really only details antisemitism of 1960s Soviet Union but it does link back to events all the way back to the beginning of the 1910s, 20, and 30s to show it was never anything new in the Soviet Union in the 1960s.
Pages upon pages of evidence that the Soviet Union was never a friend to Jews.
#anti communism#do y'all just... have this need to crawl thru the anti communism tag for some reason? you won't see my ass in the communism tag lmao

and his wife basically confirmed that gulag archipelago is mostly fictional
The gulag archipelago is constructed from various sources including reports, interviews, statements, diaries, legal documents, and Solzhenitsyn's own experience as a Gulag prisoner lol and you are stating that from one NY times article from 1974 and commie blogs. His second wife was a vigorous defender of his views and writings. There’s hundreds of other accounts of the gulags if you want to defend communism and say his experience was fiction.
Lynne Viola’s The Unknown Gulag
A journey to the Gulag and back: one survivor's account of Stalin's slave camps by the late Polish-born writer Julius Margolin
Gulag, by Anne Applebaum.
Kolma Tales, Varlam Shalamov
Kolyma: the Arctic Death Camps Robert Conquest
Journey into the Whirlwind, by Evgenia Ginzberg.
With God in Russia, Walter J. Ciszek
Coming Out of the Ice: An Unexpected Life Victor Herman
Alexander Dolgun's Story: An American in the Gulag
The House of the Dead Fyodor Dostoyevsky
So continue to deny what happened like a fool and belittling these people’s suffering.

actually one last anti commie post while I’m thinking about it and because I never got around to making a proper list of books that I use as my sources like i keep saying I will. Obviously, the Black Book is one. Also these books are mainly centered around Russia/Ukraine/Poland/Eastern Europe et al except for Black Book of Communism. I have not read a lot of books centered around other areas such as Latin America, unfortunately. I’m sure other people probably have resources floating around for that.
But I also suggest, especially for English speakers:
Black Book of Communism by Stéphane Courtois, Andrzej Paczkowski, Nicolas Werth, Jean-Louis Margolin, and several others - Is very often referenced by younger books. Some parts are actually written by ex-commies.
Harvest of Sorrow by Robert Conquest - However, like Black Book it is obviously dated but that doesn’t mean its facts are out of date. in fact, the two can actually end up referencing each other depending on which edition it is.
Red Famine: Stalin’s War on Ukraine by Anne Applebaum - What it says on the tin, talks about the Holodomor also referred to as the Red Famine. (I especially like that she actually asks locals about it! Historians, unlike anthropologists, tend to be very hands off when doing research which can result in a lot of errors and just a feeling like the person doesn’t actually care about what happened they just want the fame from talking about it.)
The Road to Unfreedom by Timothy Snyder - though it isn’t STRICTLY about communism (it is also very anti-fascist) i still recommend it because he gets into the how things happened as well as how to combat said things, both fascist and communist
On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder - Also goes into warning signs (mainly about fascism) but he talks about communism some too (as well as Putin)
Execution by Hunger by Miron Dolot - Is actually a first person memoir about the collectivization and Holodomor. This is very heart wrenching to read but I find it important!
Borderland by Anna Reid - Is a broader look at the history of the Polish/Ukrainian/western Russia area but does touch on important points but it is not to be confused with
Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin by Timothy Snyder (see above) - And as expected, it talks about the Polish/Ukraine/North Caucasus region between the 1930s to 1950s.
Judgment in Moscow: Soviet Crimes and Western Complicity by Vladimir Bukovsky - Basically what it says on the tin, describing what all the West did and didn’t do. Did as in how Western Commies helped and didn’t do as in how they tried to stifle the crimes.
A Century of Violence in Soviet Russia by Alexander Yakovlev - This is slightly different from other books in that this is written by a man who was a high ranking official in the USSR. And yet he became instrumental in revealing all the atrocities committed, especially where antisemitism was concerned (which led to him being ‘made’ to retire aka banished).
Stalinist Perpetrators on Trial by Lynne Viola - NKVD operatives were tried secretly. And what exactly happened in those courtrooms was unknown until now. In their own words they describe the Great Terror and what they were expected to do as good communists.
Gareth Jones: Eyewitness to the Holodomor by Gamanche Ray - Gareth Jones was the first Western journalist to find the true story of the Holodomor and did his best to make the world see what was happening. There is a huge suspicion that he was assassinated for this, but it has not been proven. This book is made up of his journals and biography.
More Than a Grain of Truth by Dr. Margaret Siriol Colley and Nigel Linsan Colley- Another book about Gareth Jones, written as a kind of ‘true story behind the film’ for the movie Mr. Jones
Babi Yar by Anatoly Kuznetsov - Is ostensibly an ‘autobiographical novel’ about the massacre of Babyn Yar but towards the end it goes into the Soviet denial of the massacre and the fact they didn’t even put a plaque up.
Stalinist Rule in (the) Ukraine by Hryhory Kostiuk - What it says on the tin. Dives into communism in the Ukrainian SSR.
Iron Curtain: The Crushing of Eastern Europe, 1944-1956 by Anne Applebaum - Details the USSR towards the end of world war two and a little after the death of Stalin.
The Road to Terror: Stalin and the Self-Destruction of the Bolsheviks 1932-1939 by J. Arch Getty and Oleg V. Naumov - Details the lead up to the Great Terror and all the power struggles that went on. 1933 is considered the year of the Terror Famine aka Holodomor.
Stalin’s Secret Pogrom: The Post War Inquisition of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee by Joshua Rubenstein and Vladimir P. Naumov - Next to the Doctors’ Plot and the myriad purges involving Jewish commie party members, this really drives home just how antisemitic Stalin really was.
The Black Years of Soviet Jewry 1939-1953 by Jehoshua A Gilboa - Things really started to heat up antisemitic wise in 1939. And the ‘black years’ are considered to have only stopped thanks to Stalin’s death (on that year’s Purim just before a signed order that could have completely wiped out the remaining Jews in the USSR).
The Last Empire: Nationality and the Soviet Future by Robert Conquest - Discusses multiple different ethnic groups that suffered under the USSR, including Jews. Obviously it will show its age just like some of Conquest’s other books (like What to Do When the Russians Come). But still pretty solid especially for discussing lesser known ethnic groups.
The Jews of the Soviet Union by Benjamin Pinkus - Discusses specifically anti-semitism perpetrated by the commies/USSR (it was absolutely systemic).
Anti-Semitism Without Jews: Communist Eastern Europe by Paul Lendvai - talks about the phenomenon of how anti-semitic propaganda, etc., seems to be even stronger in places where the Jews are actually absent. Systemic Commie anti-semitism.
The Complete Black Book of Russian Jewry by Ilya Ehrenburg and Vasily Grossman - So damning that the USSR stole the manuscript for it and even the typewriter tape! They ‘arrested’ the book rather than the authors, in a manner of speaking. Another of the black books often quoted by books that came after.
There is also a book that is actually more comic book, called the Ukrainian and Russian Notebooks by Igort. It is graphic (both literally and figuratively) in its depiction of life in both Ukraine and Russia throughout the communist years. I wouldn’t consider it on the same level as the others when it comes to reading especially for those who have difficulty seeing certain things related to genocide. But it is still a good thing to have. There is a LOT of text to it that is helpful in addition to the images.
