You’re quite welcome. I enjoyed (if that’s the right word) your post. So many of the answers we desperately need nowadays can be found in history. I personally have great fear that modern ‘utopians’ will systematically erase, or ‘modify’ the true history of the modern world. They understandably fear the power of truth.

It is especially true of the Soviet history, and the premiere victim of this erasure of history, just as of Communism, is the Russian nation.

Indeed. You also come to realize what a genius George Orwell was when he wrote "1984." MiniTru and the "memory hole" didn't mean much to me in 11th grade, but they take on far larger meanings as you age and get more exposure to true world history and how tyrants take control of countries.
