This is a good example of brainwashing. The Stalin's guilt is exaggerated. Let's count. Hitler killed 30 mln russians let's imagine that Stalin equals Hitler, then Stalin killed 30 mln russians too. So, they both killed 60 millions, it is about a 1/2 of USSR in that times. Guys tell me how it could be that in less than 30 years population of USSR increased to 280 million people? Are we, russians, faster than rabbits?
BTW, the old generation remember 3,5 million germans who were captives and worked in every city, but nobody told me about millions Stalin's prisoners.
