stop blaming Nazis for ZOG's authoritarian mass vaccination genocides

"Soviet successes were often achieved through authoritarian means; there was little room for questioning or resistance to vaccination, especially during initial mass vaccination trials.. Soviet governments, protecting the health of the populace played a key role in the establishment of authority, trust, and loyalty from citizens and in the prevention of riotous sentiment. The most feasible, efficient, and cheapest method of protecting citizens’ health was through prophylactic health measures that targeted the spread of infectious diseases—in this case, smallpox, polio, and measles. Propaganda that surrounded these three vaccination campaigns characterized the Soviet Union as a protective, benevolent entity that knew what was best for its citizens. Policy makers and propagandists often contrasted this image of the Soviet government with the tsars and pre-revolutionary government, as well as Western governments. They presented successful Soviet vaccination campaigns as evidence for the superiority of the communist way of life and Soviet efficiency. Within the Soviet Union, the central government often encouraged immunologists to use republics other than Russia as initial testing grounds for mass vaccination trials, as can particularly be seen with measles. Additionally, the Soviet Union played a crucial role in the global elimination of both smallpox and polio. Soviet officials and scientists utilized these global vaccination campaigns to spread their political influence, tailor their international image, and exactingly acquire scientific knowledge. For the most part, they were quite successful in achieving these goals. These vaccination campaigns also expanded to global vaccination cooperation, particularly extensive collaboration between the USSR and the USA during the late 50s and early 60s. Without the extensive cooperation between individuals such as Drs. Sabin and Chumakov, polio eradication in the USSR and globally would not have been achieved as readily as it was, if at all. Both factions stood to gain much during this period, and the propaganda, speeches, and research publications during this time reflect the fascinating mutualistic dynamic that existed between the USA and the USSR."
