If you’ve been to Israel you’d know this is not the case, interestingly enough tho , people are very interested in this, but unaware that in gaza there is a terrible, super violent “rulers” like hamas, and they keep their country in a terrible state, dont use their money to rebuild their country or put in education so in this aspect, yes, the regular citizens are in an awful situation

[@ZaneLākute]

My grandfather’s family was farmers in Latvia, which was occupied by Soviet Union, had big farm (they were called kulaks) and the whole family was deported to Siberia in 1949, just because they were successful. My grandfather was 12. After Stalins death, they could return in Latvia, what they did. In their house were living other people, their land was taken away by government. They managed to get back the house, but the land was gave back just when Soviet Union collapsed and Latvia once again become independent country in 1991. May great grandmother was so afraid, that they will be deported again, she never spoken about Siberia. This destroyed her.

[@baptizednblood6813]

Yeah it’s called class warfare lol. That’s the whole point so the fact that kulaks had their land liberated is a moot argument

[@anastasiav3766]

Both my grandma and grandpa witnessed when they were kids how soldiers came and took their fathers away for “treason”. Both their fathers died in the gulags shortly after, and my grandfather dedicated his life to clear his father’s name and waited for the government to officially apologize for the monstrous crime Stalin did to his dad. The day my grandfather received the official letter of apology and clearance of his father’s name was probably the happiest I had seen him. Until today, people focus on Stalin as a hero who saved Europe from the Nazis, but it was easy for him, he just used Soviet soldiers as bodies. The Soviet solder was told one thing “you run to the front, the enemy will shoot, you run back, the Red army will shoot you for being a coward”.

My grandmother was a nurse during the early 40s in Ukraine and Stalin would also force the hospitals to end babies born with any handicaps- even port wine stains. They would tell the mothers the babies passed naturally. She never got over it. She and my grandfather fled to Germany during the war bc their life was so horrible in Ukraine. That's how much of a monster he was.

The same thing happens today, but just in utero. In many states/countries babies with disabilities can be aborted late term. Sad.

[@MangoGuise]

@@lynncrf not even comparable to this story

[@lynncrf]

@@MangoGuise It certainly is given that foetuses experience pain in late term abortions. Aborting a child because they are not perfectly healthy is eugenics just like Stalin practiced.

[@KateinBlack]

@@lynncrf no, because here parents concent to it. If someone doesn't want to have a baby with serious health problems they are in their right. What is not ok is to lie to parents and do as you please. Don't simplify things, just because someone doesn't want to burden their life with very ill children it doesn't make them as Stalin.

His career was nearly ruined during world war 1 when the British were brought to complete disaster during the Gallipoli campaign. The campaign ended so badly that not only was he sacked as first lord of the admiralty but a lot of folks in the British government wanted to kick him out of politics entirely.

[@krg98]

Okay I laughed pretty hard at the saying "The only person Stalin feared was his wife" because Stalin was afraid of everyone and everything... that is the main reason he was such a cruel leader; anything that made him feel the slightest bit threatened was taken out by the KGB for him. He reportedly had people spirited away to his work camps and prisons for just startling him in passing out of fear that their story of "the time they scared Stalin" would go viral on him and make him look weak.

Growing up in Seattle, we learned all about the internment camps. My grandmother lived on Bainbridge Island where there was a large camp.

We learned a lot about Native American tribes in our area, Lewis and Clark, Japanese internment camps and all sorts of historical events that relate to Washington. I have always loved learning about history. If we don’t teach our children about our real history then we are bound to repeat it, in my opinion.

The historical trauma continues in many families in my country. P.D. A comment on Part 1: Stalin was not born during the Soviet Union (it was formed in 1922), he was born during the Russian Empire (the people of my country also lived through that time when the Russians had banned the press and books in my native language, so people printed and smuggled books in my native language from another place).

Loved these episodes 🤍We never learned that in school, that's absolutely insane....I hope Bailey stays safe cuz I guess people in power don't like any kind of criticism (as seen in this ep and history ist kinda repeating itself now)... Love u Bailey ✨

Bailey I love your videos so much ❤❤ can you do a video on the Columbine shooting a few weeks ago was the day that it happened on 🕊️ (R.I.P) so I was thinking maybe you could do a video on it if you want to

[@dimitrapazaiti4229]

Best ! Dark ! History! Yet! 🎉 Please do Churchill next 🙏

[@kellsmar01]

Hey Bailey! I'm here watching a Vice doc about the explosion of interest and access to True Crime as a genre. So far, they only dedicated a short segment to the history of TC dating back to the days when people bought tickets to watch public executions. I then thought, wow, I would love to hear Bailey dig into this topic more on Dark History!! P.s. love what you're doing and your storytelling, sense of humor and sensitivity are 🔥💯

[@larahariri8159]

I immediatly knew this is going to be an epic video just from the title! Go Baileyyyy👏

Bailey, thank you for putting a spotlight on stalin. Seeing statues of him erected and pictures of him carried around in 2023 russia, is just one of the horrors that leaves me speechless on the daily. As your Ukrainian fan, I am grateful to you for taking this subject on. Please keep us in your minds and hearts. Glory to Ukraine 💛💙

[@nivision]

I was already strongly anti-Russia in this conflict, but hearing about Holodomor made it ten times stronger I'm sure that was only the brief overview. Angry simultaneously that anyone could expect the Ukraine to go back to being a part of Russia, and at my high school level history teachers in the USA for not mentioning this part of the Soviet era.

[@dawnettaseering7674]

I know the feeling about starting all over again, and I’ve served all over again, which is the force of my back

[@ronorleans]

Bailey is the Elvira of our generation ❤ you should start to do movie reviewing too 🙌

[@clarissaheila5288]

Please make more of this kind of stories!

[@lbwnova6654]

Thank you so much for covering this. After moving to Canada from Eastern Europe 12 years ago I couldn’t believe how many people were ignorant of the human rights violation that happened under Communism. High schools spend like 20 minutes covering all of communist history when they spend all 3 years on WW2. Thanks again for bringing awareness

[@moniqueramage2857]

I have been so Excited to see part 2 guys! Thanks Bailey!!

Cannibalism in Russia was the origin story of Hannibal Lecter, wasn't it 😅

[@joedent3323]

Oh yeah! I remember that! Well remembered. I think he and his dear sister were trapped with some Nazis ; and I believe THEY ate his sister... right?

[@ouidadakdim166]

He was Lithuanian, but yeah it was part of the USSR

[@libbzy1742]

​@@ouidadakdim166It doesn't matter. People living on the land were not Russians but Lithuanians. Just because someone invaded your country and took away your independence, it doesn't mean you become same nationality and ethnicity. You become minority.

[@ouidadakdim166]

@@libbzy1742 Chill, I never said they were russian

[@KimmyWillcox]

Woohoo! That was a long week waiting for part 2😅

I am Mongolian, and here I have something to add on. Stalin’s dictatorship and all the horrible malicious deeds did affect Mongolia too. It was the time that Mongolia got helping hands from Soviet Union, when we were weak. So, politically Mongolia got brotherhood relation with Soviet Union, in exchange of the Russian experts sent to Mongolia for the country prosperity, whereas Mongolians gave everything they had. The 5 years of plan made Mongolians into starvation for years, not only 5 years. Mongolians prepared Stalin’s soldiers’ food, raw materials, and even the men sent to the battlefield. Civilians devastated under this dictatorship and there were no option to not to follow the commands, or else you get executed, like a Stalin’s dictatorship franchise (lol). Many Mongolians have executed during that time. There is a book called “Green-eyed Lama” based on that particular time in Mongolia. This book has a sequel as well which published lately and revealed the history based on the interviews taken from the family members of them who poorly repressed and executed, slavered, and basically lived during that time. Because all the archives of those years have been deleted from our national archives, which of course political and eliminated that part of the history on purpose. Thank you for reading this comment. Thank you for dear Bailey Sarian for making all the contents. I watch every single video of you ❤️

[@Paintslashgaming]

BAILEY - THANK YOUUUUUUUU

[@Paintslashgaming]

@REAL_BAILEY_SARIAN liar thief fraud!!!

[@starryadventure8922]

Bailey, you talked all about the gulag, but you never talked about when Stalin noticed food wasn't going so well being grown and the gulag was getting to full he sent a big group from the gulag to a island called cannibal island. That lasted for about a couple of months

[@NecroNicki]

Part 2 yesss ! 😍🤗🌑

[@kimprocarione5473]

Thank you so much for another awesome look into facts people were never made aware of! It shows how spoon-fed our information has been for decades. ❤😢

[@lunarrhymes]

Been looking forward to this ❤ thank you Bailey

[@ladygoosecaro4890]

Did he solve homelessness by building the goulags, or cos there was plenty of empty homes from everyone dying from starvation? 🤔

[@ma.christinaporras1221]

Speaking of ethics cleansing, that’s what Jews are doing to Arabs( muslims and christens ) in Palestine (Arab countries) .. 4:27

[@goolibay]

Palastinian population keep growing so no ethnic cleansing there. Jews are amazing people.
