Not Soviet ethnic cleansing for 80 year that killed my family. Not #Kholodomor killing Holocaust survivors now in my country. No, some stupid shit in politics that everyone upset over. They not upset over Holocaust survivors they failed again:
Not upset over crying and scared Holocaust survivors. Not upset they had to run again because fascists have come for them :
🚨1/#Unionisms stormtroopers and their 'reign of terror'. A story of the 'Ulster Volunteer Force' in police uniform that morphed into the 'birth of the B-men' and the creation of #UlsterSpecials in 1920 coming up soon in this thread..... 
2/ British PM David Lloyd George agreed to create an armed special constabulary in the north in 1920 and that recruitment begin in asap, but in reality it merely formalised the already illegal Protestant militia's stocking the cities, villages and hamlets of Ulster. Some of the
