And the people of the US just closed their eyes on that, as well as they don't notice now how the Kievan neo-fascist junta burns civilian people with banned phosphorous bombs, supplied by the US in the South-East regions of Ukraine. It's very convenient to be pleasantly blind and see only those things that please your eyes. But don't have any illusions that this monster will not discard you life as it has already discarded millions of innocent lives all over the world when it sees fit. Remember: the bell tolls for you...

The Kiev government is a collection of neo-fascists but don't forget, they also never arrested the ones that burned those people alive in the Union building in Odessa. Since my country didn't take any action to denounce the Kiev government then I can only conclude that my government supports burning innocent people alive, shelling civilians, and burning them with phosphorous weapons. Only a monster would support those things. But hey, only a monster woulda supported the shelling of Yugoslavia so there's obviously been a lot of monsters in the White House.

Why are we even discussing book banning? There's a huge list of books that are banned in the US. I think every country bans some books. And don't forget, the only reason the CIA wanted those books in the USSR was to destabilize the country. So maybe all the deaths that happened during the October Revolution weren't enough to get the CIA happy...

Btw, why do I keep seeing things like "neo-Soviet dictatorship" in the threads? It's totally obvious that Russia is a Federation with free elections.

That's another issue, I always hear that Putin is a dictator who use fraudolent elections to come to power. But most of ppl i know support him and voted for him.
How come the majority of free ppl (no one still coudn't poit out a freedom that russians do not enjoy and citizens of western "free" countries do) support him and vote for him and he's still a dictator?
