Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn said the Russians had a rough time of things since the October Revolution.

It's beginning to sound familiar.

“We know they are lying, they know they are lying, they know we know they are lying, we know they know we know they are lying, but they are still lying.” Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn


The 20 million figure (quoted below) looks larger than some other holocausts.

"According to The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression (Harvard University Press, 1999), the number of people who died under communism is truly staggering. Based on unofficial totals, communism caused:

20 million deaths in the USSR
65 million deaths in China
1 million deaths in Vietnam
2 million deaths in North Korea
2 million deaths in Cambodia
1 million deaths in Eastern Europe
150,000 deaths in Latin America
1.7 million deaths in Africa
1.5 million deaths in Afghanistan
10,000 deaths internationally through the communist movement


These estimated deaths come from secular sources. It is not always possible to be certain about such totals, due to communist governments’ predilection for the use of massacres, killing fields, and prison camps. But it is widely believed that 100 million human beings have died under communism from that fateful day of November 7, 1917, to the present."
