The Rasputin story is an interesting one. There is a credible thread that says that members of the Tsar’s family suffered with hemophilia and Rasputin was attempting to treat it. The family’s attempt to keep this secret resulted in the rumours surrounding Rasputin and ultimately to his death
An amazing victory for the people of Russia. Say what you will about the Soviets but the country was massively improved by their leadership. Russia went from a near feudal state under the Czar in the 1910s to pioneering space travel 40 years later despite two world wars, a revolution, and a civil war. The quality of life for the people went from one of the worst, to one of the best in Europe despite so many hardships.
Not really.The GDP certainly growed but the qualità of Life for the people wasn't One of the best in Europe. Compared to states like France,Britain ecc it was pretty bad since many people still lived in poverty
@@zenomtfr The Bolsheviks brought about far better distribution of wealth and land, Russia withdrew from the disastrous first World War, women's rights skyrocketed, abortion and contraception were legalised, and LGBT relations were even decriminalised. You can say what you want but the Bolsheviks definitely changed things for the better for the Russian people.
@@FilthyTrot all this things are not important if you are starving to death and live under a bridge. First you make a functional state, then you can worry about abortion. The truth Is that a liberal state would have made the same progress but even better.
Long live Comrade Vladimir Lenin on overthrowing the criminal Tsar and abolished the most inhumane system that is capitalism, hats off to the Bolsheviks on defeating the people's revolution from the capitalist hoards of the West crushing 14 invading armies! Lenin was a great statesman, a great writer, a great activist and a great man! 🇨🇺🇦🇴🌍🚩⭐☭
Not going to lie, I unsubscribed from you years ago because of your political views and comments. I was hot headed teenager fresh into the world of politics, with a “us or them” mentality. I’m really happy I discovered your channel, cause even if to this day we share differing views on some things I can’t deny the quality and creativity of your videos! Keep up the good work!
I guess your comment is hope for the future of freedom of speech and more importantly the future of democracy. There's nothing wrong with disagreeing with someone, however everyone in a democracy needs to at least respect and see where their opponents are coming from. This way, everyone (in an ideal world) can express their opinion without fear and discuss their views, even if they disagree, they can at least agree to disagree and maintain that respect. As soon as violence comes into play, that's when the respect starts to be eroded. I respect, but not necessarily agree with those who identify as Conservative, I can see where they're coming from
Russian Prole: Yay Russia! 🇷🇺 Russian Intellect: Yay Nationalism! 🇷🇺 Nicholas II: Yay Tsarism! Russian Prole: …. Russian Intellect: …. Nicholas II: I mean… Yay Russia. 🇷🇺
A new Russian Empire. It's clear from his life of luxury at the expense of the downtrodden and oppressed that he's not in the least bit concerned with economic inequality or capitalist exploitation.
@@guille3622 Then why did the Bolsheviks redistribute wealth and land among the working class of Russia? Why did women's rights skyrocket after the Russian Revolution? Why did the Bolsheviks withdraw Russia from the slaughter of the First World War? LOL.
It gives them money. If Raid pays them well, then I don't blame them. UA-cam isn't the paradise it used to be with creators being able to live comfortably with only 100-200k views per month.
With all of the current sanctions ongoing against Russia, what are the possiblities of Russia going back too the Stalin days and the oppressed Russian people starting another revolution against their own government? I don't see it happening tomorrow, although life is going to get a lot harder in Russia soon. Just food for thought.
@@FilthyTrot no, not the Czar. The narrator criticized The Czar for wanting to “micro-manage a democracy” but the narrator is obviously in favour of communism, which micro-manages more than just politics.
@@mrthompson3848 Well, the Czar does kind of deserve to be criticised. He lived a life of luxury at the top, while leaving his people to starve and be sent off to die in a BS war. And he was very much an autocratic ruler.
@@FilthyTrot did I say otherwise? I called the narrator a hypocrite. Does disagreeing with communism automatically make me in favour of a different dictator in your eyes?
@@mrthompson3848 Well, how is he a hypocrite? When did he say he supported communism? Critiquing capitalism does not make someone a communist, just to let you know.
Decent video but many of the minor details are very wrong. For example the Bolsheviks wanted a fight they wanted bloodshed in order to destroy their opponents it was just that there was barely any resistance in the October revolution. Another one was the fact that they released their plans which wasn't cause they wanted more people to show up that goes against completely what they are for since they are meant to be a small special group like how Lenin liked it. Instead it was a couple of people who didn't think October was the right time to start the revolution and Kernesky actually discovered of the plan because of it

The fact that anyone thinks Communism is a good system, despite literally every single example showing it being a dystopian dictatorship without rights, is horrific.
Meanwhile, it's not like capitalism perpetuates economic inequality or rapes the world's resources or anything, right? I mean, I could just point at slavery as the horrific consequence of capitalism. LOL.
@@FilthyTrot Give me one example of communism where people weren't oppressed, where people weren't put down for having different opinions, or where the state allowed freedom of expression.
@@NorthernNorthdude91749 'Give me one example of communism where people weren't oppressed'. Give me one example of capitalism where people weren't oppressed. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a perfect society devoid of oppression in world history. Never did I claim that communist states didn't have oppression. However, it would be extremely narrow-minded to just associate capitalism with freedom and socialism with oppression. If freedom were a mark of capitalism, one would think that the US, a capitalist country, wouldn't gave the world's highest prison population. Saudi Arabia is capitalist, yet it's quite a tyrannical regime which dismembers journalists, subjugates women, and has LGBT folks decapitated. I'm not saying communist states haven't been oppressive, but it would be pretty narrow-minded to overlook their pros. Cuba is a bastion for life expectancy, literacy and low infant mortality among other things, and this in spite of severely crippling US sanctions against the country. I could also point out the fact that communist countries like Cuba and Vietnam responded terrifically well to the coronavirus compared to most capitalist countries. Even with its far greater wealth and resources and time to prepare, the US had more per capita deaths than Vietnam. It really says a lot when Cuba and Vietnam are capable of guaranteeing quality medicine to all their citizens, when the world's most powerful country can't, just so pharamaceutical companies can get richer and richer. The coronavirus pandemic is one the things that clearly revealed the weaknesses of capitalism, from my perspective.
"without rights", well if i have to choose between the rights of getting rich from someone else's labor and having full free universal Healthcare and education, guaranteed right to a job, some oc the first countries to allow abortion and divorce (west Germany legalized it later than east Germany)... "rights" are quite subjective 😊
Also, cuba? I know someone who fled from that commie hell hole with his family when he was 7 after he and his parents were jailed and his grandpa was shot to death by the police. All because they were Christians.
While I am not a Communist I'm willing to hear you out. Why is Communism the best system? I'm legitimately curious and I ask this of people of all political alignments to better understand their point of view
