One thing you can always trust about the Soviet Union was it had its share of secrets.  Most of which were horrible and monstrous.  And this is one of those secrets.  The Nazino Affair was a plan to relocate some citizens from urban areas to the Russian wilderness in an effort to develop new agricultural centers for the Motherland.  While that doesn't sound so bad on paper, the way the story went down makes it read like a nightmare instead of a fairytale.   SHOW NOTES https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazino_tragedy https://u.osu.edu/mclc/2018/02/08/who-killed-more-hitler-stalin-or-mao/ https://www.rferl.org/a/cannibal-island-in-1933-nearly-5-000-died-in-one-of-stalin-s-most-horrific-labor-camps/29341167.html https://www.thecollector.com/nazino-island-gulag-cannibal/ The Superficial SpiritThe Superficial Spirit is a podcast where pop culture and spirituality get freaky.
