Pasternak later said, "If, in a bad dream, we had seen all the horrors in store for us after the war, we should not have been sorry to see Stalin fall, together with Hitler. Then, an end to the war in favour of our allies, civilized countries with democratic traditions, would have meant a hundred times less suffering for our people than that which Stalin again inflicted on it after his victory."

Those ones at least have the excuse of being ididealistic and simply brainwashed. Can't really blame a young person who has been stabbed in the back by their entire country, almost. The whole of the Democratic Media Complex, SNL, CNN, ABC, MSNBC, Rolling Stone, Vice, Heavy, Medium, NPR, Atlantic, WaCo, HuffPo, most bands, every major record label, all public school curriculum. Its like everywhere they look, even unexpected places like Comedy Central and Sarah Siverman, its all telling you the same thing. What else would a reasonable kid think? And even when they are adults, the programming has already been set if thryre urban metro dwellers.It would take not one but a few massive shocks to the system, a robbery, an assault a public, personal, racist rebuke by a college professor, to shake loose their mental clinging to that worldview that Nazis are the real threat in America today and that they wear red baseball caps and promote small government, Lol.
