"re post 1917 Russia... far more brutal and oppressive than even that of the Czars

That is quite a statement, and one which would be refuted by most any current historian"

Can you name one.
I mean can you name one historian
Who after collapse of Soviet Union in 1990
Still claims that Russia under Czar was not more liberal and human country than Evil Empire created by Communists

I agree that this is OT for this thread.

Nonetheless, if it's easily demonstrated that my views are extreme, then you should back up your claim with a little evidence rather than taking potshots.

Oblomov remembers the days of the Czars... he slept blissfully through them!
