@way2incrediblefame

of mass massacre indeed,mass massacre of Russians and Germans,these two nations lost the most of all in the world,so don't tell me how bad it was -my relatives died in Revolution(funded from abroad) in WW1 and WW2.

if you were really smart and willing to dig deep you would wanna find out who actually started all that and who actually brought Hitler to power and gave him full economic support.

@DimaKamyziak You must speak about the topic :) This topic is about this movie, not about me or you. Its stupid to defend war criminal peoples, Soviet Union and Nazi Germany was absolutely similar weapon of mass massacre. Stop learning in russian schools :)

@way2incrediblefame

I prefer to get my own facts yes there was propaganda as well as in western countries so u r no different from the brainwashed of the soviet block people if you believe this one-sided crap that they feed you.

[way2incrediblefame]

@DimaKamyziak there are a lot of facts. I can guess: u learn in russian school. In russian schools are propaganda! This movie is accepted almost everyewhere, except in Russia ;) that's the fact!

@ElProximo Regarding the Japanese and Chinese I am repeating the question you have FAILED to answer:

How do the Chinese view the role of the Japanese during the Second World War? Positive, negative, indifferent…? You are welcome to connect this to the outlandish claims made in the SS about the USSR.

[JD12ish]

@ElProximo Of course, I could be wrong. In that case I would be overjoyed to hear Your ARGUMENTS and see Your EVIDENCE/SOURCES that would corroborate the outlandish claims made in the SS about medical experiments and the NKVD training Gestapo and so on. Because apart from the comparison of Nazi/Soviet propaganda posters, I haven’t seen a single shred of evidence that would support it.

I hope you can prove me and every single historian scholar wrong.

@ElProximo I've seen quite a few documentaries in my time and read a couple of books on Rus. history (I actually studied it!) and NOWHERE did I find anything about medical experiments in gulags or NKVD training Gestapo/building conc. camps. Now either all of these historians are incompetent nitwits to have missed something as obvious as this or perhaps the RATIONAL explanation is that history presented in the SS is skewed beyond reason. I believe the one who wasn’t paid off by politicians

@MembThePenguin

It's completely propaganda,that's 100%.

[JD12ish]

@ElProximo I happen to agree with your Russian friends that the situation in the USSR was actually WORSE than presented in the Soviet Story since the film FAILS to even mention Stalin's PURGES, the Russian CIVIL WAR or any of the Soviet INVASIONS and instead focuses exclusively on loose, unsubstantiated connections between Russia/Communism and Nazism which is idiotic beyond belief.

BTW, could you ask your Chinese friends what they think of the Japanese and their role during WWII?

[JD12ish]

@ElProximo What problems are you/your Russian friends having? Are you saying Edvins Snore IS in fact a historian and the Soviet Story WASN'T paid for by right-wing politicians?

You are not of sound mind if you can't see the gross subjectivity of this film, the numerous falsifications, deliberate omissions of vital facts, cynical speculations and...

And what exactly does modern Russia have to do with Nazism in the SOVIET Story? Do your friends approve of the way their country is portrayed?
