re: #645 000G

Scale is important, all battling Black Books aside.

Sure, because if Stalin shot not 700,000 in 37-38 but 70,000, that might have gone largely unnoticed. The larger the scale, the more evidence is gonna leak. I doubt that if there were such mass shootings in recent history, they would have gone unnoticed even with all the isolation. 40s-50s - maybe.
