Why is lying necessary in politics?

Author.

  Lies in the current policy of the ruling nouveau riche class are needed only to discredit, smear, and throw mud at socialism, which denies private property.

 “This tendency is clearly visible in the issue of attitude towards the events in Katyn.

 Let's look at the chain of events related to this issue:


 On April 15, 1943, Nazi Germany announced the discovery of the bodies of 11 thousand Polish officers killed by “Bolshevik Jews” in 1939 near Katyn (Smolensk region).

 In 1944, a commission created by the USSR under the leadership of academician Nikolai Burdenko found that Polish officers were shot in October-November 1941 by the Nazi occupiers, and the “evidence” about the alleged involvement of the USSR NKVD officers in the execution of Poles was falsified and was a typical product of Goebbels propaganda.

 But new, “bright democratic” times are coming, and on April 13, 1990, Gorbachev “recognizes” the responsibility of the USSR for the execution of the Poles and hands over to W. Jaruzelski certain copies of certain documents.

 After this, the era of “repentance” begins for the “sins of the Soviet people”:

 On October 14, 1992, Yeltsin “admitted” our country’s guilt for these atrocities and handed over “Folder No. 1” with secret documents to Lech Walesa.


 On August 25, 1993, during a visit to Poland, Boris Yeltsin laid a wreath at the monument to the victims of Katyn in Warsaw with the words “Forgive us.”

 In 1996, the governments of Russia and Poland agreed to build memorials in Katyn and Medny (Tver region).

 These documents from the folder were later published and reviewed by experts.

 Historians have written dozens of monographs stating that these documents are completely and completely false.

 The best known is the work of Grover Furr, but there are many others.

 Serious researchers have completely destroyed this “evidence” of the involvement of the USSR.

 After that, this folder was mysteriously “lost”; its location is still unknown!

 In April 2010, Vladimir Putin said at a funeral ceremony in Katyn: “The truth about the crime cannot be hidden, and our assessments of this crime are not subject to any revision!”

 On December 6, 2010, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, on the eve of his visit to Poland, admitted the guilt of the USSR and Joseph Stalin personally in the execution of Polish military personnel.

 “Stalin’s guilt in the execution of Polish officers near Katyn is beyond doubt,” then head of state Dmitry Medvedev said in an interview with a Polish journalist.

 And suddenly…

 At the end of this long theater of hypocrisy, on April 11, 2024, the FSB declassified the archive about executions by the Nazis!!!  Poles and those very falsifications of the “Katyn case”...

 The question arises:

 What did they repent of then and how did this happen?

 Why did you slander your country?


 And the answer is actually simple.

 All these figures (Gorbachev, Yeltsin) hated socialism and the USSR.

 They are ready to pour tons of false slop on the history of their country, just to somehow justify the existence of the current socio-economic system - selfish capitalism along with insatiable private property!
