Anders Östlund added,
@andersostlund Events, series of events, circumstances, external factors, strong personality, adherents. These words are familiar to you?
@umbatumba Sure there are many circumstances and many factors but why not learn from history? Why repeat mistakes and celebrate them?
@andersostlund For the RF it is part of history, it is a tribute respect to our grandfathers and grandmothers.
@umbatumba Paying respect to people who were Stalin's slaves, died in masses due to incompetence, preserved tyranny. Great idea.
@andersostlund Tell, what is more valuable?To be Hitler's slave or to continue to live today? The history is events which need to be worried
@umbatumba That is not the point. The point is: Why celebrate all the stupidities? Why repeat them? Now Russia = NaziGermany.
@andersostlund At fascism there is no such freedom of will which is in Russia today. Be not a delitant.
@umbatumba What freedoms do you have when a librarian is arrested for having Ukrainian books? Can you demonstrate against corruption?
@andersostlund Yes, you are right, corruption is. Laws have to observe both the president and the librarian. But it not fascism!
@umbatumba Dictatorship, lack of free speech, militarism, cult of personality, aggression = Fascism = Russia.
