History should come first, profits second!

Great! Another American pro-"freedom of the rich" propaganda movie with loads of stereotypes and errors. The movie makes fun of the Soviet people and their struggle against fascism. They saved Europe from Nazism. More than 70% of the Nazi troops were annihilated on the eastern front. Unlike what most people here in the west think...
Furthermore, people who don't know better are tricked to believe that the movie is accurate and that the arguments against certain political ideas are good and true. The movie also tries to be witty in its critique against the permanent struggle for a better life.
The logic is: Whenever man struggles for freedom from oppression (poverty, unemployment and homelessness are also forms of oppression - only the rich are free) it fails. There's no need for even trying fighting for a better society. That's the meaning behind the movie. To make money and make soviets look evil in favor of our own "superb" society. Of course it's superb for the people who can afford to make the movie.
Looks like only the ones with money can get their messages and ideas across. Both through movies and media.
If anyone wants a more accurate description of the battle of Stalingrad one should see the German movie "Stalingrad". It's MUCH better. And there's no politics in that one...
