Original Note:
No Russian law banned criticizing Jews, and no “genocide of 30M Christians” occurred; Civil War/Stalin-era deaths affected all groups. The first Soviet government wasn’t “mostly Jewish”; it was secular and ideological. Putin’s 2013 speech stressed ideology, not ethnicity. https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/jewish-bolshevism https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2013/06/19/putin-at-jewish-museum-a25199 https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674763146
