Today in Labor History July 26, 1944: The Red Army liberated Lviv, Ukraine, from the Nazis. Only 300 Jews survived the Nazi occupation out of 160,000 who were living there before the Nazi invasion. The occupation is depicted in several books, including Robert Marshall’s “The Sewers of Lvov” (1991) and Krsytyna Chiger’s memoir “The Girl in the Green Sweater” (2007). Polish director Agnieszka Holland’s film “In Darkness,” which was nominated for an Oscar, is based on these two books. #workingclass #LaborHistory #nazis #fascism #holocaust #redarmy #russia #soviet #ussr #ukraine #books #fiction #historicalfiction #author #writer #film @bookstadon@a.gup.pe

An abandoned Soviet-era military engineering school. Abandoned since the early 1990s, when Latvia asserted independence from the USSR. This school was built in the 1960s to train engineers and scientists for the Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic Armed Forces. Now, it is an empty relic relegated to history. https://www.obsidianurbexphotography.com/military/soviet-radio-electronics-school-latvia/ #Latvia #History #AbandonedPlaces #Urbex #Soviet #USSR #Abandoned

Don't fool yourself — the #USSR under #Stalin was #conservative & #reactionary, not revolutionary or #socialist/#feminist. On #ThisDayInHistory in 1936, #abortion was outlawed there, reversing #Lenin's 1920 decree, and it stayed illegal until 1955, two years after Stalin's death.

#Putin compares the West to #Nazi #Germany in 1941 Why 1941? Why not just Nazi Germany? Because the #USSR was allied with Germany before 1941 Many #Kremlin apologists are eager to forget that "Nazi" doesn't mean #fascism and #imperialism to Putin. It simply means "Western enemy" The fascist mass murdering imperialist part of #Nazism isn't a problem to Putin Because that's what Putin's #Russia is https://united24media.com/war-in-ukraine/putin-says-nato-is-preparing-for-war-and-compares-western-countries-to-nazi-germany-in-1941-20091

#Russia enters a shaky ground here, because if you look at 20th century nobody killed more Soviet people than… Soviet people themselves. The ethnic structure of Soviet leadership is more complex - Stalin was a Georgian, even if totally Russified - but leadership of VChK, NKVD, GULag and other countless repression structures in #USSR were always dominated by ethnic Russians. In late March, the State Duma rushed through a bill introducing penalties for denying the so-called “genocide of the Soviet people.” This happened weeks after news broke that Moscow’s shuttered Gulag History Museum is being turned into a museum on the same subject. Taking place while Russia draws international condemnation for its war in Ukraine, the pushing of the “genocide of the Soviet people” into the public debate shows that the Kremlin is trying to frame Russia as a victim while waving away its own crimes, such as the deportations of Crimean Tatars, Chechens and other Indigenous peoples. https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2026/04/06/russia-is-redefining-genocide-for-political-purposes-a92434

The sad part is the amount of trash on the riverside and in the forest, most visible this time of the year due to lack of foliage and undergrowth. Including this truck tire made in the Soviet Union! It might be over 40 years old, has likely spent the last few decades here. #USSR #pollution #trash #Danube
