Russian lies have been the same for 85 years, just the idiots falling for them changed. 1939 RT publication justifying the invasion of “western proxy” “fascist regime” Finland, that was actually “always Russia” and “never a real country” and which also “killed it’s own people” and needed “saving”

  1. This book is a great discovery! And yes, things have unfortunately not changed. The only thing that has changed is the way the lies are spread.

  2. The Baltics simultaneously voluntarily joined the USSR and were so Nazi that the USSR had to conquer them because they didn’t deserve independence. The USSR also liberated them from the Nazis in 1940, a whole year before they were occupied by the Nazis. In 1940-1941, the Soviets deported and executed the many Nazi collaborators who aided the Holocaust in 1941-1944.

  3. What do you consider the 3 biggest lies in that book? It’s a bit hard to read (for me)

  4. Russia Today Society, or RT as it is now called, is really surprising.

  8. Russian propaganda has always been about demonizing independent entities that wouldn’t let themselves get puppeteered by Russia.

  9. The Russian empire, by whatever name it goes, behaves barbarically.

  10. This is golden. There’s also a meme about not Russian bombs killing civilians, but Finnish anti-air shrapnel.

  11. I heard from my mother some stuff that grandma had told her, what she had to go through when she (grandma) was a child back then. I dont think Ive even heard half of it. Needless to say my mother is very shaken by whats going on today at Ukraine. I believe most of us Finns are.  

    Fuck you Russkie genocidal scum. You havent changed at all. Same barbaric shit century after century.

  15. Reusing lies is cheaper than inventing new ones, and well…apparently they keep working.

  16. well if that type of propaganda proves effective why change it? the US also didn’t change much their propaganda strategy from the start of the Spanish-American war until now

  17. Thank you for posting this, its very a very interesting read. The rhetoric is eerie similar to arguments used by Russia today, against Ukraine, i.e “they FORCED us to act, we didn’t wanted to do it”. Russian propaganda always sounds like a schizophrenic person trying to explain their delusions

  19. Like, for instance, that general that lied about Iraq in front of the united nations in 2003? Millions of innocent civilians, including children, died for the ruthless bombing that followed … Apart it was US secretary of state.

    Russians … do you want to challenge the masters of propaganda and fake news?

  21. They lied about fighting Nazis, just like they do today

  22. Finland and its people are absolutely nothing like Russia.

  24. yeap they use the same book since they become people… sad but true!!

  26. Kinda like when Putin told Tucker Carlsoj that Poland forced them to attack in the 30s and Tucker just sat there like a bitch.

  27. It was never Russian! Not even the other side of the border was Russian. It was Swedish! But I’m fine with letting Finland have that area, since that’s what it would have been if Russia hadn’t taken it from us.

  28. Same as Iraq needs saving WMD WMD Double You Em Deeeeeessss took my jeorbbbb

  29. Why does it sound exactly like what usa says to countries before attacking them?
