Well, this is fine example of so-called "lie", plain and simple. You may mention it, and often it is being mentioned by all kinds of media. Things that really are frowned upon are highly controversial topics like alleged mass raping by the Red Army in Germany during WW2 . Other than that, no holds are barred, and things are discussed freely; I'd say hot topics are more frequent in Russian media than in the US one ; but clearly hotness and level of controversy is different in two blocs

It seems you're quibbling on which topics can't be talked about, not that there are some.
Many countries have forbidden topics. Try to question whether holocaust was real in EU.
if you're still in Russia, try posting some photos of 1939 Brest-Litovsk parade on your VK page, we'll watch from afar how it goes for you
no, like post it to your VK and write "USSR cooperated with Nazis to divide and occupy Poland"
Alleged?
