200 Years Together - Solzhenitsyn
Re: 200 Years Together - Solzhenitsyn
Why won't this link embed? Why does the playlist also not embed? Why is it only shareable as a link?
Odd.
Odd.
If I were to guess why no t4 personnel were chosen to perform gassing that had experience with gassing, it would be because THERE WERE NONE.

Apologies Herr Stubble, i'm a boomer and don't know how to embed, so presume it's my fault. As long as the link itself works you should be golden. In fact I recommend going direct with an RSS link and bypass youtube entirely
FWIW as of time of writing this series is up to episode 101.

Re: 200 Years Together - Solzhenitsyn
Any guesses on whether the "official" translation will actually appear anytime soon? The Solzhenitsyn Center missed their 2025 release date.
The Samisdat edition I found online is somewhat incomplete (~200,000 words), and the version on WikiSpooks is also missing a bit from the Samisdat edition. Together, I think they're as complete an English version as I could find (~320,000 words). I'm not sure what the Omnia Veritas version uses.
There are minor mistakes all over, which you'd expect from a bootleg translation, but it's an extremely readable book. I've read books from major publishers that have more grammatical mistakes than these.
I wonder how an AI translation would compare.
Years ago, I collated all of the text and re-typeset it with footnotes because I wanted to read the book. Designed some covers and sent the PDF files to a print shop and got paperback books.
Solzhenitsyn isn't a Holocaust doubter of any sort in the book. He denies the first holocaust (Kishinev 1903) more than the third one (Nazis). The book is valuable for many other reasons, though.

No sweat bud, I went to embed it for you yesterday, and it tells me 'this video is unavailable' when I do, when that video is very clearly not unavailable.HansHill wrote: ↑Wed Jan 14, 2026 9:44 pm Apologies Herr Stubble, i'm a boomer and don't know how to embed, so presume it's my fault.

I tried a few times using different methods. I even tried to embed the playlist.
No dice.
YouTube has a big stiffy for that video series.

11 months since posting the OP, time sure does fly!
Not sure Herr Stubble, could be a shadowbanning issue, or something to do with monetization. I know PQ's RSS feed is monetized with placement & smart ads, his YT may be similar.
@Pilgrim, the cynic in my wants to say if we haven't seen it before Oct 7th, we won't see it after Oct 7th! Those two aren't thematically linked in any kind of way, but more so about the tightness within which certain narratives will be permitted to be propagated!
Also, i concur with Herr Stubble, that edition looks fantastic
