The rabid dog of anti-Stalinism
(unedited translatin)
July 14th 2015
... if Hitler had thundered Stalin.
... if the Central Committee of the CPSU (b) were shot as rabid dogs.
A. Minkin
How, and a rapier with poison? So go,
Poisoned steel, by appointment!
Hamlet (Shakespeare)
Among the paranoid anti-Soviets, the journalist of the Moscow Komsomol member / MK / A. Minkin has an honorable place. This place he earned due to his literary abilities, skillful possession of the pen, sarcastic style of presentation and other necessary qualities necessary to gain popularity. Somewhere I read that he had previously worked in the field of theater criticism, but when an anti-socialist revolution took place and criminal capitalism was established on Russian soil, Mr. Minkin quickly developed the qualities of a political thinker who aggressively attacked Russia's socialist past. Naturally, like all anti-Soviets, the nutritional base of his creative brains was Solzhenitsyn's works and the myths of Stalin's terror, drawn from another journalist - Robert Conquest, an Englishman, who in the United States made a career as a denouncer of Stalin with his book "The Stalin Terror" (1968). Having enriched his brain potential with contacts with various anti-Soviet and anti-communist people, he himself became a warrior fighter not just against communism and Stalinist socialism, but against the whole period of Russia's socialist history.
For the sake of justice, it must be said that he is critical of the current system, which, in his opinion, is of the same hateful socialism. He is for capitalism, but capitalism is civilized, as in the West. In one of the articles he even called for building capitalism in Switzerland, not realizing that it is impossible to compare disparate values. He does not understand that there is a big difference between running a small Switzerland and a huge Russia. He, like a whole stratum of the same liberals such as Kasyanov, Ryzhkov, Kasparov, etc., does not understand that in Russia civilized capitalism can not be created in principle. In it, as well as at the beginning of the 20th century, only military-feudal capitalism can arise, the main characteristics of which are total corruption,
But I'll get to the point, because of what I started this article.
Minkin, on the occasion of the next anniversary of Germany's attack on the USSR, decided to give an explanation of his old article "Whose Victory ?," which was published in two magazines in 1990 and 1991, in which he claimed that Germany's victory over Stalin's Russia would have been is useful to the country, since it would overthrow the Stalin regime, and the people would then defeat Hitler and without Stalin ("MK", June 22, 2015). Naturally, many readers were outraged by Minkin's pro-fascist approach, especially after the article was reprinted in 2005. This was due to the fact that if in the 1990s the population reacted with "understanding and approval" to this article, then, because of the sharp increase in the popularity of Stalin "The scale of misfortune surpassed all the most gloomy expectations." "Since that day," Minkin complains, "10 years in a row, I have been persecuted by a thousand-slander:
Before I return directly to the essence of his sorrow, I will begin, so to speak, from the beginning.
First Minkin notes the dense people, who constantly believed in some nonsense: the fact that the Earth is on three whales, in some Zeus, etc. In fact, this is not the case. And the Earth, it turns out, is not on three whales, and even about Zeus all have long been forgotten. And on the basis of this stupidness of the people formulated by him, the thinker begins to deploy an attack on socialism. He's writing:
" Marxism-Leninism - where? Where is the greatest genius doctrine, the only true answer?" In the same place where Zeus and a whole bunch of Olympian gods ... The multiplication table works under any political regime, while Zeus almighty and Marxism-Leninism are now only exhibits of the Historical Museum of Delusions. "
Only a person with the brains of Lady Gaga can connect phenomena from different social paradigms (I call this the "vertical thinking" of Russians). But I will dismiss Zeus with the multiplication table aside. I will continue about Marxism.
I have a feeling that Mr. Minkin never heard of the PRC? So, Marxism-Leninism is one of the most important components of the ideology of socialist China, which is clearly fixed in the constitution of the PRC. And about 80 million Chinese Communists profess this ideology. This is more than half the population of Russia. Marxism-Leninism as an ideological basis retains its significance for many left-wing parties. As a philosophical teaching, it fertilizes many scientists in different countries. But the journalistic head of Minkin really is an "exhibit" of the Museum of Delusions, since the thinker journalist is simply not familiar with this teaching, judging from his children's writings.
In the course of the article Minkin continues to "debunk" the horrors of past years: "Criticism of the leader was impossible, was considered a crime; could be planted even for a disrespectful anecdote. " And then, in the next paragraph, he contradicts himself: "But what did you say at home? among close friends? at the front in the circle of fellow soldiers? According to the denunciations of the informers and reports of the NKVD-KGB, it is known: people were wicked, hostile, slanderous conversations. " And the natural conclusion: "For" the policy "sat millions".
About millions - lower. Whence Minkin sucks this rubbish? In his environment, perhaps, there were such people. And in my, for example, there were no such. Just like in the environment of my wife and many of my friends. Why should we speak for all of us? Pathological anti-Soviet paranoia prevents breathing anti-Stalinists. And here is the peak of his schizophrenia. Here and the doctor is not needed for the diagnosis:
" If all the victims of Stalin: the executed priests, children deprived of their parents and tucked into the orphanage, millions of dispossessed exiled and ruined peasants, starved to death, military leaders, writers, scientists, workers, doctors - millions perished for nothing ... millions of skeletons and cripples, and go, crawl along Red Square - we would look, who would kiss a portrait of the Moustached Father. "
If you believe all the delirium, the whole fever of the article, then it becomes unclear who built the second superpower of the world? How can you win the Patriotic War without commanders? How without the scientists of the USSR managed the first to break into space and still keep strategic military parity with the US? Sholokhov, Fadeyev, Sergeev-Tsensky, Chukovsky, Yazvitsky, Shaginyan and a few thousand members of the Writers' Union, that are not writers? Or is there only one writer - paranoid anti-Soviet Solzhenitsyn? Where these "millions" come from?
I'll tell the reader. These "millions" anti-Soviet writers first borrowed from the publications of the already mentioned professional anti-Soviet, the English journalist Robert Conquest. Then came the clever Solzhenitsyn, who came up with these "millions." Naturally, dissidents who were offended by the Soviet regime, many of whom were lodged on benches, could not but "confirm" these very "millions". At all at them someone from relatives or friends appeared in Gulag. They transferred their personal troubles to the entire Soviet people, as a result of their "testimonies" tens of millions were in the Gulag. Personal resentment for the imprisonment is a serious factor that engenders fantasies. Naturally, they did not read the scientific literature that exposed the lies about Stalin's terror. They did not read the works of Archa Getty, Herbert Hurtle, Alexander Dallin, Ludo Martens, who, among other things, in particular, pointed out that at least 80% of the "testimonies" about terror were based on anonymous authors. Martens' book "Forbidden Stalin" (M: EKSMO, 2009) of a stone on a stone does not leave all figures about terror sucked from a finger by Conquest. When I tried to offer one of the anti-Sovieters to read his book, she flatly refused, saying that it was "more convenient for her to regard Stalin as a tyrant and dictator." At one time I conducted my own opinion poll among my near and distant relatives, and also all my friends. Among them there was not one, from whom someone sat "for politics" under Stalin. It is clear that on the basis of personal experience, which is the mainstay of the anti-Soviet delirium, it is impossible to build scientific conclusions. Need accurate statistics. that not less than 80% of the "evidence" of terror came from anonyms.

Among other things, Matvei Ganapolsky, another journalist who is obsessed with anti-Stalinism, also calls for this, which in another anti-Stalin article in the same MK (July 6, 2015) writes:
" It is better to compare what is comparable - repressions against one's own people, which we called" Stalinism. "Today all the archives are open, and everyone can get acquainted with the terrible picture of the destruction of the color of their own nation. "
He himself obviously did not open these archives. But they were discovered by the historian Viktor Zemskov, who on the basis of numerous archival material in his book "Stalin and the people. Why there was no insurrection "(Moscow: Algorithm, 2014) compiled such a table.

Note: Between June 1947 and January 1950, the death penalty was abolished in the USSR. This explains the absence of death sentences in 1948-1949. Other measures of punishment included counting the time spent in detention, coercion, treatment, deportation abroad.
Where are the millions here, except for the final line for 31 years? During this entire period, about 800 thousand people were shot. And this is in the years when not only the entire West fought against Soviet power, but also many internal enemies. This table clearly demonstrates the blatant lies of all anti-Sovieters about Stalin's terror, which must be constantly propagated, so that at least the uninitiated know the truth. When I begin to talk about Stalin's terror, for some reason I immediately recall a piece from the "Execution of Stenka Razin", true, now I disrespect poet E. Yevtushenko. In it there are such lines: "No, that's not what I, people, is sinful that the boyars on the towers hung. I'm sinful in my eyes because I hung them up a little. " In this connection, I am even ready to state the seditious idea for anti-Soviets: Stalin, unfortunately, was too humane with respect to many enemies of Soviet power. How many of them have survived! And all this infection began to crawl in the 1960s, and in the 1990's seized power. As a result, the great superpower was destroyed. And the splinter of the former power came to replace the country where the capitalism, so desired by the Hanapolis and Minkins, grew out, and which even their beloved West misses.
Well, now we return to Minkin and Hitler. He is indignant that he was not understood, because he wrote only this:
" There were not enough places, and the magazine took about half of my article, in particular," the most criminal place ": that if in 1941 Hitler got to Stalin, then the defeat would be temporary, we would still win , but with fewer losses, so it was written in black and white:
The people would rise. Stalin, Stalinism - never.
Freedom from Stalinism would come in 1941, and from the invaders - in the same 1945 ... After all, with its fascism, no one can fight, but with a stranger, with an alien - oh!
That Germany (even winning) could not be kept - no doubt. The Roman Empire did not keep France, Germany, Egypt ... And she collapsed. England did not keep India, America ... " (Highlighted by Minkin-OA).
In the beginning, "trifles". This ignoramus does not know that the Roman Empire could not hold France and Germany, because in the time of the Roman Empire such states did not exist. When Caesar conquered part of the territory of present-day France, it was called Gallia, and instead of Germany there were various tribes (Alemans, Franks, Saxons, Huns, etc.). And while England "did not hold India", she managed to shed a lot of blood on this territory.
Now about more important. Does this bug represent what would happen if Hitler "got to Stalin"? This would mean the total destruction of the Soviet power structure and the formation of a pro-fascist government that would not fight those who gave them power. Perhaps this half-knowledge did not read Mein Kaf, but from other sources he could read that Hitler's strategic task is to destroy Russians as a nation, not to mention Jews. And this task was carried out rigorously, as soon as the fascist troops invaded the territory of the Soviet Union. What kind of brains should one have to not understand the radically different approach of Hitler to the conquered countries of Europe and to Russia. Where does this ignoramus know, what would be the losses? And not one gyrus in the brain of this thinker suggested that Hitler reached Moscow, no Jew in the USSR would survive, and this Minkin himself could not amaze present readers with his thoughtful pen. Even the above paragraph eloquently confirms the boundless historical ignorance of this journalist, which, however, is characteristic of all anti-Soviet people. They are so "more comfortable to think."
In continuation of the article, this word-keeper writes:
" It's hard to say what is more in these accusations: stupidity or meanness.It can be argued: there would be more casualties or less if Hitler threw Stalin in 1941. But it is impossible to ascribe to me the dreams of the final and eternal victory of Hitler. : we still would have won.The whole article that without Stalin we would have won with less losses, and then life would have started differently. "
Pay attention to the phrase: "if Hitler crashed Stalin." This is exactly what all fascists dreamed about and, by the way, tried to implement it in practice. And after that, the defamatory foul-mouthed groans that he is credited with the position of a pro-fascist! It's regrettable that Hitler did not "bang" Stalin, a man whose name soldiers and officers were attacking. With the name of which the country linked and the construction of a just society - socialism. With the name of which the country for two decades has become the second power in the world. And this messenger is still indignant at the misunderstanding of his gold-bearing text?
Here is another of his "pearl": "Life then would have started different." Now there is no Stalin and life really has changed. But which one? Better? Endangered cities, towns and villages. The destruction of industry, medicine, education, the prosperity of banditry, alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. Although it is without Stalin.
This paranoid is constantly awakening the idea that "many", they say, believe that even without Stalin, "we" would have won in this war. And this is how it is baked out:
" You believe that he won, I know that the country has won, so which one of us is a patriot?" The country won, despite his insanity, paid an unthinkable price, and still do not know which one. "
I do not know who these "many" are. The Soviet people won, headed by Comrade. Stalin. This time. Two. "Country" can not win, because this word means a geographical name. Only people can win, from which the army is recruited. And led by its specific people. People are different. The commanders of France were not able to resist fascist Germany, nor were the commanders of other European states. Of course, if there were no Stalin, and if it were another head of state, the socialist Soviet Union would still win this war. But it happened that Stalin was at the top, who was highly regarded as a military leader by professional military men (Zhukov, Rokossovsky, Vasilevsky, Shaposhnikov, etc.). How can journalist Minkin assess Stalin's military knowledge? And absolutely historically illiterate. Whom to believe, marshals or this Minkin? The main thing - it's not in Stalin, the case in the system. The people would indeed have won without Stalin, because he defended SOCIALISM, a system that turned the slavish population of tsarist Russia into the most literate and self-confident people, the people of the Soviet Union. But to Mr. journalist Minkin, this is never understood.
Minkin, like the rest of similar thinkers, constantly accuses Stalin that he missed the date of Hitler's attack on the USSR and that he destroyed the entire color of military personnel before the war.
The fact that F. Roosevelt missed the attack on Pearl Harbor, this is normal. And Stalin is insanity. Does this diplomat know how many traitors were even in the GRU, and how active and large-scale were the intelligence services of Germany and Japan in the field of disinformation about Germany's plans? Does this paranoid represent how almost the entire capitalist world worked against the USSR. In such a situation it was really difficult to calculate the specific date of the attack. And the purge in that army was inevitable, bearing in mind, for example, the anti-Stalinist activities of the same Tukhachevsky. It's easy to talk a damn thing without knowing. But in order to understand the real situation, it is necessary, as the Americans say, to get into the galoshes of that time.
Here is another idiotic passage from an article by a thinker. Speaking about the relationship between the USSR and Germany before the war, he writes:
"A Russian man, a Soviet officer put on the SS uniform, bowed to Hitler, Himmler, and dabbled with bloody Nazis ... Stirlitz did this: a) for the good of the Motherland and b) risking his life. "
"Friendly" relations between countries had their own logic: the United States, Britain and France worked against the USSR. Naturally, under such circumstances it was necessary to try to use Germany against them, just as these countries tried to use Hitler against the Soviet Union. What are you, the writer, do not get bogged down when the heads of Britain and France "dumped" with Hitler and signed the Munich agreement? And you should generally be without brains, so that in this context priplesti Stirlitz.
But this passage removes all the decorum with regard to this scoundrel. Razotkrennichavshis, writes:
" For Russia, it would be better if the Central Committee of the CPSU (B) were shot like rabid dogs, because they were really rabid dogs - they had bites half a planet and ruined the country." By 1941, Russia was tormented by fear, insanity and lawlessness. for nobles and priests - for what? And the people did not want to fight for this power, 3 million surrendered in the first 4 months. "Such was not the case in Russia under any tsar " (my course. -O.A).
If "the people did not want to fight," who fought? The peasants were destroyed, who fed the army? "Shoot the Central Committee of the CPSU (b) as rabid dogs"? Before this, no anti-Soviet in the world came up with it. I think that the dog Minkin himself deserved his execution, since his literary bites are deadly to the people of Russia. Therefore, for such a boorish barking, this lover of delicate verbal criticism deserves its name - a scoundrel.
In general, people correctly understood the essence: he is a fascist and is a fascist. True, Minkin boasts that such people as B. Okudzhava and B. Vasiliev approved his articles. (Although I'm not sure that they were reading this particular article.) Perhaps Okudzhava (Vasilyev, I do not know) lost his temper after the counter-revolutionary coup as well as many other "titans of the spirit".
The above passage gives me the right to view this journalist not just as a paranoid anti-Soviet, not only as an ideological accomplice of Hitler and as a whole fascism, not only as an enemy of the Russian people, but also as one of the most disgusting creatures hatched from the stinking marshes of anti-Sovietism. It is the duty of every normal person to eradicate such creatures, not only in Russia, but throughout the world.
