minus-square@simplymathlinkEnglish3•13 hours agoI mean, I get the point, but it’s not like rewriting the 1917-1945 history is uncommon in Europe. The anti Soviet museum in Lithuania doesn’t talk about the Holocaust of Jewish people at all, for example. There was a well organized campaign to promote revisionist history on the Croatian Wikipedia. And Poland codified denialism into law. The Jewish population of the region that used to be the Western Russian Empire remembers the violence as starting in 1917, not in 1939 when the Germans showed up. This had been a recurring thing, but nobody seems to remember that.
