    Minorities are minorities. Some religions, queers, poc, etc~ countries that the soviet union annexed. Ukrainians were considered a minority.

        Because the Soviet Union was vehemently antisemitic.

        And Ukraine wasn’t a primary target of repression? Are you forgetting the holodomor?

            I’m assuming you’re just blissfully unaware of the antisemitism within the Soviet Union.

            We’ll take the Doctor’s Plot as an example. The Soviet Union created a campaign where they said that Jewish doctors intended to kill leading communists, which of course was just to purge more jews.

            Also what do you mean by good job?

                You’re being really weird if you specifically take offence to me mentioning Jews as one of these minorities. I also mentioned Ukraine as a part of these minorities to distinguish how each was treated: Jews were purged, Ukrainians were starved, Gays were locked up and unprotected. I can go on…

                It’s pretty telling that you’re just being antisemitic, so I’m giving you a warning to knock it off; no hate speech is allowed here.

                    Bias? Bias of what? Jews? I even mentioned queers in the same comment you took issue with, but you’re not whining about queers, now are you?

                    Jews were a crucial part of World War 2, and especially in the soviet union. The union’s antisemitism pokes a big hole in the whole tankie rhetoric that ‘the Soviet Union actually saved World War 2 and the Jews!’
