post 3

it has only goten worse just two posts ago i was living fine but now i am living in a totalitartian state.  a one party dicatorship in in control of everything here in russia. stalins secret police are terrofying everyone.  they us censorship violetn purges and they open private letters or even go as far as to plant listning decives.  where ever i go i seam to see progoganada every where.  i even hear the propoganda on the radios and loudspeakers. i am really wishing i had not come.

in movies, theaters, and even in schools they try to teach how good communistions is and howw bad capitalism is.  they have posters urging workers to increase production.  i have to constantly watch what i say for fear of someone over hearing my complaints.  they would throw me into a consentration camp where i would surly die.  every thing has changed for the worse and i do not like it.

i love russia during the spring. there is all this snow and it is very cold.  i got to meat a whole bunch of landowing nobles, priests, and to my great suprise i even got to meat the all mighty czar.  these people are the really important people in mother russia.  while i meat many high level people there where many lower class i spyed from my window in the castle.  they lived in such poor conditons.

today is march 1917 and i got to see the first of two revolutions that would topple the Romanov dynasty and pave the ways for even more radical changes.  i keep hearing about the horable battlefield that has caused my confortable home to go away.  conditions have casue the monaky to colaples and i have to sleep on the street.
