If you can look at those pictures of Russian human rights activists with their heads on pikes and Nazi caps on top, pictures that include an 80-year-old woman and a former first deputy prime minister, realize this camp is paid for by the Russian government, and not see how horrific this organization is, then no other facts I could show you would mean anything to you. You’d need to see them up close and in person, as I have, to feel the terror they inspire.

The fact that you don’t care about them, and don’t care about the threat to American values rising in Putin’s neo-Soviet Russia, probably explains why you don’t find this article compelling. A similar attitude was shown to towards the USSR in its infancy, and decades of totalitarian nightmare resulted.
