Talk:Bereza Kartuska Prison

Japanese-American Experience vs Bereza Kartuska
"Polish-British historian Tadeusz Piotrowski who also calls it a concentration camp notes that the establishment of the facility was a norm of its times, similar to camps established by Americans for Japanese during WWII, by Canadians for Ukrainians during WW2..."

Oh FFS. "similar"? You mean in that it was situated roughly under the sun during hours of daylight? This is fucking nonsense and there's absolutely no need for inclusion for this in an article. Piotrowski is a serious historian whose polish nationalism occasionally causes him to write abject stupidity, and this is quote, if true and faithful to his intended meaning, would be example number 1. serious historian or not, this quote is so far outside of the mainstream that it should be put into a "revisionist views" section. Hell, I'm going to do this right now, since such a statement has about as much propriety as holocaust deniers' do.

1934 prisoner affiliations
Apparently the year this place opened, according to the table 70% of the inmates were Communists, 10% were far-rightists and 30% were Ukrainian nationalists. Whilst it was perhaps possible to be two of these things simultaneously (either a a far-right or Communistic Ukrainian nationalist), this seems doubtful as the breakdowns for subsequent years do add up to 100%, which leads me to the conclusion that the statistics for 1934 are erronous. 2600:1004:B160:FF87:44B3:4AD8:9E33:4263 (talk) 23:52, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
