History is written by the Winners - a photo on Flickriver

            Russia won WW II. No need to occupy itself with the evil its leaders did. Accordingly, a museum dedicated to the mass murderer Stalin seems still to be in perfect order. Even when nowadays it is located in Georgia.

Unthinkable to someone coming from Germany where the view on the Third Reich is clear and unequivocally negative - at least to those being able of critical thinking.

But I guess other nations aren't that aware of history and especially the social media youth as shortly after I took this image, a couple of Asian kids took selfies with Stalin for TikTok or Instagram. I doubt that they reflected about anything else than how to give their best impression.

We left the museum again after a brief look into this entrance hall as we didn't want to support the onesided positive outlook on him which is said to be on display there.
