@Vladimir_Vladimirovich @mur2501 No, I think the other fellow has a point: slavery isn't solely external, it also comes from within. If Germany had successfully conquered Russia (lol good luck), they would have enslaved the Russians, sure. But didn't WW2 Russia kill more of its own men (via shooting deserters) than the Germans managed to?

How is a man who is shot by his commander for trying to go home any more free than a man who is shot by his enemy for trying to resist?
@Vladimir_Vladimirovich @mur2501 That said these paintings are great, I love the first one with the poor lad hanging on over an icy pit LOL
