Martyrs who suffered at the hands of both tsars and Red dictators don’t get their due. That’d be worthwhile. Too much energy was spent protesting movie made about tsar Nicholas’ scandalous sex life.

Eh, at least with the tsars, it is most likely due to Christian factions infighting with each other (which, while unfortunate, is pretty much par the course with differing religions. I refuse to consider atheism a religion, even state atheism. I think of three key things regarding a religion: A deity, supernatural elements, and an afterlife. Atheism lacks at least two of the three, if not all three).
