That's a very interesting story. I'd never heard of Nazimo Island before. Stalin never seems to be as reviled as Hitler, and, to be sure, Hitler's atrocities are a horrible stain on human history, and being called a Nazi is rightly seen as a grave insult. But I think Stalin should be mentioned in the same breath as Hitler. He was, arguably the greater evil. Stalin was personally responsible for more murders than Hitler. Perhaps calling someone a Stalinist should be held in the same regard as being called a Nazi.

Dude I not only agree but I’ll raise the bid. When stalins biological son attempted suicide. The benevolent leader in all his wisdom and glory said. And I’m quoting keep in mind. “The bastard can’t even shoot straight.” Really take a moment and think about that. How absolutely detached from all good you would have to be to dare utter those words under such circumstances. Hitler is always talked about (in America at least), as the supreme of all evils. But to be honest, he was a child playing with toys as compared to Stalin or Mao xe dong. (Idk if you’d care or not) but there is a poem Marx wrote in his teens. I believe it’s called iron throne. Or something to that effect. And it really helps to understand what kind of person Stalin was. To have followed and beloved a person like that. Jordan Peterson did a reading of it, if audio format is more your thing.

Just last summer (August 2021), yet another Soviet mass grave was uncovered , in Odessa, containing the remains of people killed during the great purge. During the kulak purge alone, about 2 million innocents were driven to the wilderness and were left to die. These weren't some "evil capitalist oppressors", most rural craftsmen were labeled as kulaks, no matter how rich or poor. Every farmer that had a stone house while his neighbours had wooden houses, was a kulak. Every farmer that had a 2-floor house while the rest had 1-floor houses, was a kulak. Then there's the Holodomor of course, were at least 3.5 million people died in a man-made famine (primarily Ukrainians) , but the number could be way higher. People were forced to engage in cannibalism to survive. Let's not forget the ethnic cleansing due to forced relocation/deportations: during his reign Stalin relocated, among others; the Koreans, Poles, the Kola Norwegians, Romanians, Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians, the Volga Germans, the Ingrian Finns, the Finnish of the Karelian, the Crimean Tatars, the Crimean Greeks, the Caucasus Greeks, the Kalmyks, the Balkars, Crimean Italians, the Karachays, the Meskhetian Turks, the Karapapks, Chechens and Ingushs. Some of these groups had their entire male population deported to Gulags. Speaking of, the vast majority of the Gulag population were innocent. During the periods of mass arrests when the NKVD would get quotas, people would get taken away, tortured until they signed prewritten confessions, and get sentenced to 10 years of labour in the gulags, under article 58. Millions of people shared this fate. There's many other examples, for example if a teenager would pick an apple from an orchard he would get sent to the gulag, as that was stealing from the state. Even red army soldiers that got captured by the Germans and later returned to Russia, were sent to the gulags, as they were "traitors who let themselves get captured".

When you mentioned that film in the beginning, I immediately thought of the book Lord of the Flies. A fictional account of what happened when a group of English schoolboys was stranded on an island, it was based on accounts the author had read of people placed in isolated locations with little or no supplies and no other human contact. Readers were appalled by what he wrote BUT, as he told friends while he was writing the book and after it was published, so called 'civilized' behavior disappears in larger group in this situation with the behavior disappearing faster as the size of the group goes up. It looks like desperate people start losing their sense of personal responsibility and morality in larger groups. And it doesn't matter WHY they were in their situation, just that they were there. He also remarked to many of his friends that it was horrifying that the largest groups were deliberately put into an isolated, contained enviroment and starved by some of the worst dictators/despots the world has ever known.

I immediately thought of Lord of the Flies too. The human need to survive at all costs turns many people into selfish monsters, as does the need for power over the people they deem "inferior". It is of the utmost importance that we never forget that these events actually happened. Like the saying goes "Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it", and if what is happening in the world these days (such as Putin's invasion and genocide of Ukraine) is any indication, it will definitely happen again if we don't pay attention.

That's no reflection on their bravery or sense of duty... But the truth of the wars they are signed up to fight are very rarely honourable. And for what? To be killed or tossed aside homeless and forgotten about.

@@mommalion7028 the first sentence you said ...absolutely! I said individually they are brave, etc. The second sentence is what's "wrong" ... Not your comment is wrong...but you're belief in that sentence is what's wrong... let's say America, for example, tell me how the US military is protecting Americans...right now? They have their military stationed in at least 40 other countries right now, and make no mistake that they are there for control. They'll be "told" they are there to help a fighting area keep peaceful...but those people in that country are entitled to air their grievances with neighbouring people and be left to sort it out themselves. Most of these places have not asked their "allies" to come to their defence. They resent the American military being in their country. It's no coincidence as to WHY the "East" is so f*cked off with the "West". If they've not been asked for their help, then they are only there for the benefit of America...mostly OIL! The "army" feels they are protecting a vulnerable area, doing good. But that's not why "those as the top" have sent them there.... 🤔 Right now the Ukrainian military is protecting their country... And it's not a fight they chose. That's defending a country.... How is the US army protecting Americans right now? America's not under attack is it...? As I said the individuals themselves have trained with honourable intentions... During their career they will no doubt serve an honourable cause...at least that's how it's made to appear. But at least the Hunger Games is upfront about it's bloodthirsty need for entertainment. It's a competition, blood sports. I'm not saying the US military work alone, a lot of other countries' armies bolster up the numbers. It's a joint effort, but the war torn areas are NOT the real battle that's taking place. The real war is being fought over control, resources and profit, back in Washington, London, Paris, Berlin...."negotiations" are really a bartering session between who gets what share of what. If the oil dried up tomorrow, America would be heaving with unemployed military with nothing to do.

@@tamielizabethallaway2413 as a U.S. vet, I agree with most what you say, it's an odd position. Knowing we must have a capable military, not always agreeing or understanding with foreign policy, our involvement in other's affairs that haven't requested it. Soldiers are told they can't see the Big Picture, that they must complete their task as well and perfect as possible, or it breaks down, and the Big Picture is always a noble cause. Hard to argue one way or other if you truly don't understand the big picture, I just performed my duties as well as I could, and knew I would never follow an order I knew was immoral, inhumane for no purpose other than cruelty, never do anything I couldn't tell my mother, or keep me from looking my children in the eyes. " I did my best" or " I just did as I was told." doesn't buy my innocence. Still, I love my country, and would become inhumane, cruel, what I had to do to remove an enemy from it, had respect for enemies that felt the same, look me in the eye and spit in distaste. Can't stand cowards. I only disagree about oil. I don't think oil has near as much to do with most of our actions as most do, if any. It's a nice distraction, but we don't really need anyone's oil, not at all.

I appreciate you saying that you're told what to do and trust it's for a greater cause. Of course for you all to work seamlessly and alertly that makes sense, if you were all raising concerns every five minutes you'd be all over the place. But still, I don't think you're told the whole truth. More likely fed something that you're comfortable with agreeing to. The people in the military are honourable and brave, it's the powers that be, that give the orders that I don't trust. I don't know much about the oil situation, so you may well be right in that regard, but we could use oil to represent something a country has, that America wants to control. "The military" is such a faceless organisation and I still feel that they use your patriotism, to make you do things that are deceitful. But as individuals you're also somewhat dispensable. Invisible. Pawns on a chess board, played by a handful of men competing for control. It's those egos at the top I don't trust. I really appreciate your honest insight.

Because people are individuals whose main goal is not to die. Organizing would mean stick out to be the target. Also people are mentally weaker than you realize, they can be reasoned with, lied to, manipulated when their futures are uncertain. Just tell them more food will be coming tomorrow and they’d wait another day. Promise them personal favors and you’ll have them literally eating out of your own hand. The moment someone organizes something to scale they out themselves and will be killed. Even if they do succeed in overtaking the guards and taking the barges guess what they’re still dead as there are more units lined up all along the river and surrounding villages. It just takes one radio message and they’re all gonna be hunted down like animals simple as that. Can you subdue every one of the hundreds of soldiers in less that 5min? Because that’s literally the amount of time it would take for a guy on watch to alert someone up the chain to the radio room to start broadcasting a sit rep. With all this in consideration how many people you think you can organize? Even if you’d be willing to die for your brethren it’s not guaranteed everyone feels the same way. You’ll be the the first to dive in and the first to get shot. People behind you will see that and a lot will be too scared to move. So you died for nothing in the end but at least you wouldn’t have to suffer in the future. But others are not that brave or calculating they rather take their chances and see what happens. And that is human nature.

In 1991 I caught a flight from Manang “airport” in Nepal to Pokhara on board a twin otter dehaviland airplane that had a maximum ceiling about 2000 metres lower than the surrounding mountains lol. We hit clear air turbulence off the shoulder of one of the Annapurnas and as the plane screamed like a dive bomber mere metres above the face of a glacier I realised that it had taken me weeks to walk into this place and that if I lived (and there was no epirb or gps back then) there was a pretty good chance that while waiting for a rescue I’d have to eat somebody that didn’t survive the crash. This seriously went through my mind in a few seconds like a bolt of lightning. The pilots managed to heroically pull the plane up at the bottom of the valley with bloody pine trees whizzing past the tips of the wings and we landed safely at Pokhara airfield where I literally dropped to my knees and kissed the ground. But I’ll never forget that moment of amazing and brutal clarity that I had and to be honest I absolutely would have done it. Anyway didn’t fly for many years after that but discovered that alcohol actually really helps…

Wow 🤩!!? Your narrative and delivery is amazing! I love the fact that even when telling such a difficult and harrowing tale .. you sprinkle just enough humour into your storytelling to keep us sane and actually enjoy the experience!! .. while at the same time shuddering and wrapping our minds around such events that defy sanity… I look forward to hearing more from you my dear friend.. but hey… you have such a lovely voice.. I could probably just listen to you reading a telephone directory?!! lol 😝- just kidding… the content of your stories is also amazing 🤩!!! Well done!

The premise of these films reminded of a straight to DVD film called The Condemned where a group of prisoners on death row or on long sentences were shipped of to a remote island where they fought to the death for their freedom . The film starred former wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin and former football/soccer player Vinnie Jones .

My Lord I’ve never heard of this. How can something so incredibly horrific go without a worldwide spread? Were the people that knew killed or threatened to be? And how the later humanitarian group found what they did, how long did that take? You probably said so, but it never should have happened, and even though it did, it absolutely never should have been kept as quiet as it did. I feel I should thank you for bringing this up, for educating me about it, yet at the same time I’m so disgusted with humanity, the ones that sent them, that I lose even more faith in us. I’ve always known Stalin was one huge P.O.S., but this takes it to a whole new level. With as much sincerity as I can deliver, I absolutely hope that man is serving eternity burning in the hottest fires of hell. And if he had kids, and they are still alive, they should be kept watch upon. I cannot blame generations of successors for what he did, but let’s not take any chances. Unbelievable.

Often done in ghost towns of America, the tundras of Canada,Russia,and China,the Outback of Australia, and on decommissioned cruise ships.

The atrocities committed by Stalin and the other murderous dictators throughout history were not due to Marxism. They actually go completely against what Marx believed and promoted. Too many people have no clue what communism/Marxism actually are. The propaganda from the Cold War about those ideologies still casts a long shadow and prevent people from actually educating themselves on them unfortunately.
