Gulag - Bino lets start up the discussion!

good post bro, can't really find much to disagree with...and although the book claims that the criminal nature of stalin/lenism is rooted in tsarism, i'm finding this to be a majorly disputed point amongst russian thinkers.
the book i'm reading now claims that rule under the tsar, while fuct in a lotta ways, was much more human and liberty filled than life under lenin/stalin.
what more have you read? interesting to say the least...what this book proves to me is that you always need a check on poly powers, wether it be rep/dem...if you allow either full reign bad shit happens

I'm on chapter 5 now.

What this has told me so far is that it is NEVER, EVER acceptable to imprison or punish someone for their OPINION.

I think that torture and execution is something we can do without completely as well.

gulag

yeah it's a toss up...the thing is if you could hold out and stay alive in the concentration camp, once the allies came you'd be good.
in the gulag, as you'll find out, most peeps never made it out alive...and if they did, they were often sent back on some bullshit new charge.
outlasting the gulag was near to impossible, only thru western exile.

i'm reading about that dude frankel, he's mentioned in the book...a prisoner turned gulag admin asskisser turned gulag administrator, in the labor sector.
his philosphy was a prisoner is only good for 3 months of labor, after that they are worthless/decrepit/inches away from death
