"Mr. Afanasyev’s life traced an unpredictable arc that began under Stalin’s harsh rule in the 1930s, carried him as a boy through the hardships of World War II and brought him stature and privileges as a dedicated Communist, only to lead him away from the very political system that had nurtured him."

Yeah, a lot of dedicated communists became big champions of democracy after their first heart attack or when it became clear the government couldn't keep the perks and privileges rolling along.

Better late than never I suppose, but it's funny how often those who had power under the Communists decry anyone who doesn't play ball with the Globalist thieves like Yeltsin did.

Probably because the lecture circuit in the US pays very well for those who will say what the audience wants to hear.

... in his book “Dangerous Russia,” Yuri Afanasyev argued that Russia had been poisoned by its past.

Well I guess just to be safe we should nuke Russia back to flint tools and animal skins, then have a beer.
