>Vladimir Putin’s Russian government has attacked it for its condemnation of Stalinism
Reason enough to celebrate it
“All victims matter”
😛
The victory against Fascism in (former) Yugoslavia should be a matter of pride, and one best left fully separated from the government built upon it.
Tito was a stalinist bootlicker who only turned against his master when ol’ Iosef said nyet to an idea of a Balkanic USSR under Tito. Ever the hypocrite, holding the same view as him on Stalin a week too long ended with you in a prison camp.
Were you a young holocaust survivor making a benign joke in the paper against Tito? 1.5 years in prison.
A professor which partook in an international committee on Soviet crimes? Shot when Zagreb was liberated.
Wrote a book on how Muslims have it bad in the USSR? You’ll be shot but your book will be used in a positive way after the split from Moscow.
Best of all: if you are some snot-nosed brat which served a few months on the wrong side and tried to surrender to the Western Allies, you probably were slaughtered along the 40.000+ people at Bleiburg, while an SS imam who wrote spirited letters to Himmler got on a public salary because ol’ Tito needed to make friends with the Arabs.
Due to being actually charismatic and more benign than Soviet dictators, the old playboy-dictator ends up romanticized, and the collective condemnation of crimes by all totalitarian within former Yugoslavia postponed and left burried under communist nostalgia, but also due to idiots who unironically are nostalgic for the Axis…
