The point about the cold is funny because the majority of gulags were located near (big) cities, so even if it was freezing you’d be in a city soon lol. Like, there’s 0 effort involved in debunking a point like that.
Wait, I never heard of that point… what’s the closest one to Moscow?
Those inside Moscow I’d guess. We think of gulags as prisons, with defined locations. But it seems as if they, at least some, were more temporary. Which makes sense when considering they were for construction jobs, which might take you from the Moscow to the Volga, or from the Baltic to the white sea.
