Aw this Jared Wilkins fellow takes me back to the Usenet days! There were lots of Soviet atrocity deniers on the net in the 90s. There was also a great camp of "Shostakovich revisionists" who believed Shostakovich was a happy patriot who loved his country. Haven't seen any of those folks crawl out from under a rock in a while, I figure they are all not in the flat earth society of eomthing.
We are not talking about Shostakovich but completely another person who was discredited by scientific community, but it didn't make it popular culture. Usually ones talking about Soviet atrocities are Nazi apologists, so there is that.
I will only reply to such arrogance once. What was researched by historians who studied historical documents is that total number of active prisoners in Soviet system claimed by Solzhenitzyn was more or less equal to total numbers of prisoners that went through the system. This is blatant manipulation which is insult to the logic. One can also compare total numbers of dead by Soviet system claimed by Solzhenitzyn with total number of citizens. Claims by Solzhenitzyn are impossible. Still some believe these lies, like many today believe that 99% of people dying from covid are unvaccinated. When working with statistics it's imperative to use a brain in order not to mix up the contexts. All his outrageous claims have been a good fit for anti Russian propaganda though.
What numbers are you talking about, dimwit? Did Solzhenitsyn make any claims about numbers? How about you point to a passage in his works in which he talked about actual numbers? Then we can talk about the actually Russian atrocities. Which, from the last count, were considerably worse than the Nazis.
What, exactly, did he lie about, jackass?

Once?
You haven't actually replied at all, just made one unsubstantiated assertion after another.
You are the personification of why leftists are the laughing stock of thinking people everywhere.
I have already put more effort into this discussion than you. There is no point in throwing pearls before swine.

that what Nazi apologist would say. Have Soviets conducted human experiments (Mengele like) and put people in the ovens?
Paging Mike Godwin...
What a piece of work you are.
