University Courses, T-Shirts, and Vodka: Drop ‘Romantic Notions’ of Communism, Says Victims of Communism Advocate

We must hold the perpetrators of Soviet crimes to account
Eighty years ago, a targeted campaign of Soviet communist repression against the people of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania peaked with mass deportations carried out over several nights in June of 1941.
The dreaded sound of a heavy knock on the door in the middle of the night, signalled that a troika of Stalin’s henchmen were waiting to storm into the home or farm to herd families onto waiting trucks at gun point. From their homes, they were driven to central railway depots and onto waiting cattle cars, which would carry the victims off to distant Gulag slave labour camps — often never to return.

The Puffin Foundation’s Obsession With Communism Revives a War Against Jews
How Communist do you have to get before somebody notices?
In 2013, the Puffin Foundation issued a grant for what was described as a “Soviet Yiddish Songbook”. The CD, later issued as “City of the Future: Yiddish Songs from the Former Soviet Union”, is accurate only in that its songs, like Red Army and The Song of the Collective Farmer, are indeed in Yiddish. Otherwise they’re propaganda for a brutal antisemitic regime that killed countless Jews, including one of the men who wrote the song lyrics, and Yiddish culture.
The Two Michaels to Be Tried Soon
And no one in the government knew:
Canadian officials are not aware of any new timeline for the trials of two Canadians detained in China, despite reports in China claiming Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig will soon be tried.
