“Bilingualism”. A poster showing the odious result of the occupying Soviet regime’s policy of re-Russification: re-imposing Russian — the language of empire — on Belarus as a co-official state language has led to the domination of the Russian letter i (и) over the native Belarusian i (i). The current regime in Belarus reimposed this mephitic policy in 1995.
“Weapon of Mass Destruction” (the sledgehammer of Stalin and Stalinism as Joseph Stalin’s book “Questions of Leninism”).
