So on the show TFM mentioned Solzhenitsyn's book "200 Years Together".

I have read it and it really is a work of excellence. Not the anti-semitic screed it's characterized to be. It is in fact well researched and even-handed.

Unfortunately, it's contents are so uncomfortable and unpalatable, it's no wonder that Jews the world over want it buried.

@Tfmonkey @basedbagel
It could potentially undo decades of time, effort and money invested in protecting their reputation and carefully managed historical record.

Here's how the translator, Columbus Falco, described the censorship of this book:

"Published in the original Russian in 2002, the book was received with a firestorm of rage and denunciation from the literary and media world, from the Jews, and from almost the entire intelligentsia of the established order in the West…

@Tfmonkey @basedbagel

"... Immense efforts have been made by the Russian authorities & also by the Western liberal democratic power structure to ignore it, to suppress it as much as possible, & above all to prevent & interdict the book’s translation into foreign languages, most especially into English, which has become essentially the worldwide language of our epoch…

The Russian authorities have to this date refused to allow any official English translation of the book to be published".

It's a big and dense work and not easy to find, so here it is for download:

Even if you never read the whole thing, just read the first 45 pages. That should be enough to give you a good impression of the content, quality of research and writing to evaluate for yourself.

Happy reading.

@UncleIroh @Tfmonkey Interesting, I won't lie to you I probably won't finish the whole thing but I'll read the 1st 45 pages and report back to you.
