Lies To Discredit Intelligent Voices and Thinkers

Russia ..... typical historical Totalitarian tactics to take down intelligent voices and thinkers. 

"This particular unrelenting wave (1937, 1945 and 1949) grabbed up anyone at all at any moment. But when it came to outstanding intellectuals in the thirties, they sometimes considered it clever to fabricate a case based on some conspicuously shameful violation (like pederasty; or, in the case of Professor Pletnev, the allegation that, left alone with a woman patient, he bit her breast. A national newspaper reports such an incident  - and just try to deny it."
