Last week, I was invited by a group of likeable Marxists who wanted to know about Canada’s Camp X, the Gouzenko hoax that launched the Cold War and the sabotage of anti-Fascist resistance in the USA and Canada after WW2.
These were topics that were very dear to my heart so I took the opportunity to prepare a few thoughts which I hope you’ll find edifying.
As a word of caution: I was not sure about sharing this lecture broadly since I have already gotten a handful of ignorant attacks from certain folks who skipped actually watching the presentation, but upon seeing the title of the host group, promptly decided that I certainly must be a Marxist supporter of the Great Reset.
After giving it a bit of thought I decided that readers of my Substack are probably smarter than those few ignoramuses, so here it goes. I hope you enjoy the show…
Hi Matt
Why do ignore Stalin's horrendous crimes and ignore like all good communists that Stalin was in an alliance with Hitler for 2 years. that they both agreed to how to carve up eastern Europe including Poland. The Soviets invaded Poland a few weeks after Germany and took over a much bigger part of Poland than the Germans occupied.
And Germany's principal reason for invading Poland was Poland's refusal to negotiate on a corridor to Danzig, backed by British guarantee to defend Poland which they could never do. Britain had no more interest in Poland than they do currently in the Ukraine.
"Likeable Marxists" lol. Yes they were for the most part. You displayed remarkable patience in the Q&A. Glad to see folks from disparate backgrounds having a civil discussion. Thx for sharing this interesting talk.
