he Soviet government entertained the idea of resettling all Jews in the USSR in a designated territory where they would be able to pursue a lifestyle that was “socialist in content and national in form”.
^ it was an idea for their benefit. sure - it didnt work, but the intentions here were positive.
In the spring of 1928, 654 Jews arrived to settle in the area; however, by October 1928, 49.7% of them had left because of the severe conditions.
They left Karl - means it wasn’t concentration camps gun to their heads.
After the war ended in 1945, there was renewed interest in the idea of Birobidzhan as a potential home for Jewish refugees.
The Jewish population in the region peaked at around 46,000–50,000 Jews in 1948, around 25% of the entire population of the JAO.[15]
I’ve read it - they look like anecdotal accounts and don’t look too credible.
Would there be any systematic Jewish decoration policy - I assure u this would have come out in the 90s when archives were opened and Western media would have had a field day with this.
And no - jao was formed before WW2 - and from what I’m reading - people were not forced to move there, there was a propaganda campaign promoting it.
Like putting Jews and Red Army POWs let out of Nazi camps in gulags. Very positive.
that’s not a real thing.
you wouldn’t be able to find an example of systematic jews transfers to gulags - search if u wanna.
kidding me - many people in ussr leadership were jews
not sure what u talking about.
there hasn’t been mass ethnic deportations after about ww2 - which I think we can all agree was a very special unique case.
besides - supposed democracy of the time were putting peaceful japanese into concentration camps and segregating negros - so how are they better.
How was decided? By number of children. 1 kid - 2br apartment, 2 kids - 3 bedroom apartment.
There was also wait list.
No - I wouldn’t say housing was different based on income - actually 100% sure it wasnt.
I find that USSR housing much better than 2x4 framed house I live in now in US. Cmon- cant beat 3m ceilings - in US its reservd for the rich.
One thing they really fucked up planning is parking - noone knew everyone would drive a car in 30 years
Canada doesn’t have a military.
Nor would be able to be resupplied like Ukraine.
It was a long us policy to keep it completely neutered so it will ultimately do whatever us asks, not sure why Trump had to aggravate it publicly cuz they don’t have a way out anyways.
