Thinking of the parallel of sending copiers to Solidarity in Poland back in the 1980s and how that was kept secret for decades after.

Thank you, @tim-weiner.bsky.social for a marvelous discussion!
Can't wait for our Wednesday, Nov 19, discussion with @tim-weiner.bsky.social about his super new book, "The Mission." This is going to be good! @lucatrenta.bsky.social @chekistmonitor.bsky.social @socintelhist.bsky.social .

Fair enough. (Although I'll be buying any book of yours, regardless.)
