Literally. Japan had no issues rallying around Shinzo Abe who was probably the most flagrant war criminal sympathiser of Japan's modern prime ministers, and it's no surprise given that he was grandson of war the criminal Nobusuke Kishi, known as "The Monster of the Shōwa era".
He got what was coming to him.
If you can't find a textbook on LibGen or Zlibrary, hit me up. I'm good at sourcing pirated textbooks.
Sometimes I can only find earlier editions or, for example, the international edition rather than the Canadian-specific edition that your course has instructed you to buy but 95% of the time those special editions and the newer editions are just a reworked version of the exact same content.
It's actually a racket where courses will tell students to buy the most recent edition of a textbook to actively discourage students from buying second-hand textbooks of the previous edition for fear that they're getting out of date information when actually all they do is update the pictures, change the cover image, amend typos, and occasionally they'll shift the content around a bit of update the little case studies that reinforce the learnings from the chapter in order to keep them relevant to today.
But the actual core of the content is almost always identical/virtually identical.
So yeah, let me know if you need help with sourcing any textbooks or other books.
Yep. Chuev conducted a series of lengthy interviews with Molotov over the period of 1969 - 1986 and he kept extensive notes about what Molotov attested to.
While I can't seem to find an English language translation of 140 Conversations with Molotov, his other work, Molotov Remembers, is frequently cited as a primary source by historians.
Given that it's testimony from something which was said many years prior to the interview I'd hazard a guess that Molotov was paraphrasing because the chances of it being an exact quote are vanishingly slim but such is the nature of historical work; often the eyewitness testimony is going to be somewhat hazy, especially long after the fact.
I personally would feel comfortable in saying that Stalin had actually said something to this effect, if not exactly word for word, to Molotov.
It's according to Molotov's recollection. From Сто сорок бесед с Молотовым by Felix Chuev:
Stalin himself, I remember, said during the war: “I know that after my death, my grave will be piled with rubbish. But the winds of history will ruthlessly dispel it!
Never underestimate the power of a large group of liberals committed to denialism.
Hmm... you probably don't want to read Nestor Makhno in the Russian Civil War because it's a tough slog to get through, despite being a short book, especially if you aren't already familiar with what happened there.
I haven't actually listened to much of the Revolutions podcast and the host has a very strong bias to anarchism/anti-"authoritarianism"/the anti-Soviet paradigm but in season 10 he covers the Russian Revolution and the later episodes deal with the subject matter, although I'm not sure how in-depth he goes but check out Reds and Whites, Anarchy in Ukraine, and The Collapse of The Whites (but also keep in mind that he really wears his biases on his sleeve.)
>tfw you troll Hitler so hard that he quits his job as a politician and takes up art again, making a mural of himself in the Führerbunker on the 30th of April 1945

Well, shit. How come both of these things are listed as a problem? Feels like if one was bad then the other wouldn't be?
Maybe they're upset about the order in which they happened?
But how will they confirm that it's him when Prigozhin is such a cunning master of disguise?
