How do you respond to this? It’s not something I’ve done a lot of research into, but it seems like one of the few critiques where you just say “critical support for the USSR, we need to learn from the past mistakes the soviets made and do better the next time around.”
Well, I’m not gonna defend that. That is one of those little Great Russian chauvinist brainworms smuggled back into the USSR, but would’ve been no different, if not worse, under Tsarist Russia.
