Of course there are a few toxic comments from the Party Faithful (pronounced “useful idiots”) who are naturally comparing Stalin’s reign to what Trump is supposedly doing to the US.
From the article:
“Title cards that close out the film reveal Duranty retains the Pulitzer he won for his dishonest reporting that helped cover up the deaths of millions. Perhaps it’s time that changed.”
Things like that only change when enough people make enough noise, for long enough for the gatekeepers to take notice.
