You yourself are trying to confuse me in everything.
Now I stand accused of "trying to confuse you in everything".
You write
Putin signed off today on the legislation, which prohibits the publication of material that equates the “aims and decisions” of the Soviet leadership and military commanders with those of Nazi Germany during the Second World War.
That's not all I wrote at all.
I'm no fan of dictators and the article says:
Putin signed off today on the legislation, which prohibits the publication of material that equates the “aims and decisions” of the Soviet leadership and military commanders with those of Nazi Germany during the Second World War.
You do realize it had to get voted on. You know democracy and all.... And it doesn't say anything about not being critical of Stalin, but that you can't "equate" one with the other. Its nothing like no communists.
There was nothing there that eluded that I didn't understand or know what Stalinism in general was, especially when you posted the article etc. . You want to claim now that I was confused and needed your clarification on what Stalinism is or did? Obviously, and that only begs the question, exactly what did you understand, if anything? Did you understand that I was distinguishing between equating and being critical of!
