They'll literally talk about feeding millions of people alligators or put on theatrically staged shows of tying people up to chairs with bags on their heads and executing them via gunshot to the back of the head among other monstrous acts but will cry crocodile tears enough to flood the Great Plains with an ocean and accuse you of being a monster in human skin if you don't want basic human rights for everyone.

It is difficult for me to imagine what "personal liberty" is enjoyed by an unemployed person, who goes about hungry, and cannot find employment.

Real liberty can exist only where exploitation has been abolished, where there is no oppression of some by others, where there is no unemployment and poverty, where a man is not haunted by the fear of being tomorrow deprived of work, of home and of bread. Only in such a society is real, and not paper, personal and every other liberty possible

A maximum sentence in the worst Soviet prison in the Stalin era is a kindness to these people.

No see, people deserve to be treated much worse than even normally maltreated prisoners in the US because........ possibly maybe having a visa violation.

Every time I head libs complain about the Gulags in biographies of people who "suffered through them" they always have a line like "They were terrified because going to the gulag was practically a death sentence." Then after the gulag chapter is done, the biography continues with like "10 years later they moved to the US and unveiled the horrible truth about the gulags, getting multiple book and movie deals and becoming a millionaire. They now spend their time collecting world war 2 memorabilia and expanding their collection of unusual tattoos."

It's always "The gulag was an evil death sentence" and then "after the (actually pretty reasonable) amount of time they spend in the gulag, they were free to move overseas and leave the USSR to live their life how they want. THUS PROVING how evil the USSR really was!"
