History rigged? No doubt, and a few weeks before the special operation in Ukraine (i.e. the war), the Kremlin dictator had the Memorial association, a Russian human rights NGO, liquidated and dissolved, to shed light on the crimes committed during the USSR era. With Stalin, the Katyń massacre, police terror, political trials, the doctors’ plot affair, the Gulag, then with his successors and heirs, Soviet tanks and murderous repression in Budapest and Prague… but also Cuba and the missile crisis that brought the world to the brink. Modern mythologies, too, are searching for new ones, so it’s hardly surprising that in the sphere of politics, where the balance of power is constant, divisive individualities come to the fore wherever we stand. Our materialistic age needs new saints, models of sorts! What’s more, in totalitarian and dictatorial regimes, it’s piquant to note the almost deified image that leaders want to give of themselves to their people, especially in the case of Marxist regimes! You’d have to pinch yourself to believe it, even in the 21st century!
