“Lenin was the good guy, it was big bad Stalin that screwed over the Soviets!!!”

Fr Lenin might have been worse than Stalin.
Wrong they were both good, but Stalin was better
@@jaceortman595 Lenin won revolution and brought communism than died, Stalin built the USSR, industrialized and kolhozed with 5 year plan, won ww2, rebuilt the soviet union, retook most of our land that was lost during civil war and got more after ww2, also please read his 1936 constitution the most free democratic constitution ever and made Russia the nuclear power it is today, literally our best leader no one can compare even Peter the great!
@@SwePol gtfo in Katyn only 10.000 male nationalist anticommunist soldiers were killed and you call us the bad guys, while germans and ukrainian banderovites killed mostly children and women in Poland, hence it was in their ideology to kill next generations of the race they didn't want to exist, while communists valued their children lives and educated children to be real communists. It was much better for Poland to be occupies by soviets than nazis for their own protection.
@@SwePol Finns were aggressors and nazis they deserve everything that should happen to them, balts lived best lives under ussr yet they were the most ungrateful to us and left as first, ukrainian famine was an accident Kazakhs had it worse yet they don't complain as much as them, crimeam tartars are offspring of mongols they don't belong there, chechen should btfo.
Nazi Germany was a state that ran death camps, the USSR was a death camp that ran states.
@Tutu boy it's unfair towards the Nazis - they were not nearly as intent on murder as the communist hordes.
And your low-key commiecaust denial is unfair to the USSR’s 60 million democide victims.
@Tutu boy silence Commie
@Tutu Boy You think Communism has a lower deathcount than the Nazi-Regieme, even IF we account ALL WW2 casualties to be their fault alone?
Hah... think again mate and look at the great Leap Forward in Communist China alone... and that's before we look at Soviet Russia and the Proxy Wars in the Cold War alone.
@@TutuBoy835 it's pretty accurate pre destalinization

Academics: The west needs this!
@@SwePol unfortunately mate, here in the west most academics are at least somewhat adjacent from Marxism. Being intelligent enough to get a degree doesn’t mean you aren’t capable of being led astray by bad ideas
To be fair, if the West had a Lenin, it might be enough to permanently beat down the Socialist movement, and that would be indisputably wonderful.
Although I admit, that's still a ghastly proposition since millions of innocent people would be tortured and slaughtered in order for such a thing to come to pass.
@Three Emperorsyeah, but generally, people praise these revolutions, because they influenced the world as we know it, specially in terms of organising the ideologies in the political spectrum
*millions, not thousands
@@SwePol Yet the academics are often more sympathetic to these kinds of ideas than the common people. There is a myth that appeals to botht left-wing populists and apparently some anti-communist elitists also that would have it that communism is a result of a spontaneous revolution of the masses who are simply fighting for their freedom.
Just a few weeks ago an old liberal coworker of mine commented in passing that Lenin was a good guy and a "man of the people". I cant believe people today in the USA can be this evil or ignorant.

The irony is that the guy who wanted to rule with an iron fist through the small group of elite revolutionaries is called "man of the people". Lenin was ruthless, charismatic, smart. Almost completely amoral, for whom ends always justify the means, whatever the cost. But also definitely one of the few big minds Russia produced in the field of philosophy and political science.
And the fact that people support tyrants and ideologies like this now a days is just crazy to me.

Vyacheslav Molotov, Stalin's most loyal toadie, once said between Lenin and Stalin, Lenin had been the more severe of the two. Lenin would have brooked even less limits on his power than Stalin if he'd lived.
So basically an absolute monarch is what your getting at? But RPing as a communist?
@@Berserker3624 Nah, just a typical communist totalitarian dictator but worse.
I mean probably but somehow doubt because I think Lenin did want to evolve communism under his reign and not totally stalinist.
@@itsblitz4437Stalinism is the logical outcome of a practical reappraisal of the 10 years of Bolshevik insanity. He had to make illyichs dream work somehow
Look. The army for one was a mess with no respect for the hierarchy. Had Stalin stayed with Lenin and Trotskys vision I really wonder if the army could have withstood the Nazis.
@@Berserker3624 that's what he always wanted
I find it so ironic that the worker's revolution basically genocided other workers (the peasants) what a clown world lmao.
Yes, the Bolshleviks were imperialists and wanted an underclass to exploit. Many Rural Russian Socialists allied with Lenin during the Revolution and organized for democratic elections (which they won btw) but were betrayed by the Leninists who stupidly pretended to believe that a rural worker was less productive than an urban one.
Its not ironic they just lied their way into power
@@chuck948Yep. They never cared about the workers or the peasants. The only people they were ever interested in helping were themselves
@@ZeroResurrected
Socialism = power to the people. In charge, that is.

I'm glad you mentioned Trotsky, he would have been just as evil as Stalin had he been given the same power.
Orwell and his Animal Farm popularized the myth that Trotsky was the "good, reasonable, kind" communist compared to Stalin's insane paranoia.
@@FieldMarshallWeeb funny because later on Orwell actually turned against Trotsky too and wrote negatively about Trotskyism
@Doron Aznible yeah, it probably really wasn't 100% intentional on that part. But I'm sure we all know communists who read Animal Farm once and then go, "oh if only Trotsky had been in charge, then the USSR would've been paradise!"

Man, first time I’ve seen a good anti Lenin video. Most critics of the USSR talk about Stalin or Brezhnev as opposed to the brutal tyrant who actually started all of this shit.
On a side note, congrats on getting 7k and a sponsor Lav!
Then you will love Nestor mahkno
It’s weird to see people criticize Brezhnev when Khrushchev was the far worst leader for the Soviet Union. Not even going to talk much about his massive overspending into military affairs over his own people, who were still recovering from WW2, he really did hurt a lot of ties with allied countries and made things worst between him and the west. Barely was a reformer, in which most of those reforms were curtailed later on anyways. Brezhnev wasn’t the best, but honestly a good amount of the fault falls onto Khrushchev for his dumb decisions years prior.
@@prayingpat6254
Can you tell me more?
What do you mean about Khrushchev barely being a reformer? From what I've heard of him, he was a massive step up from Lenin and Stalin.
I know that he was still a dictator and did some genuinely twisted things, but saying that he was the worst leader seems to be going too far.
@@prayingpat6254true, but Brezhnev was the one who fucked up detente and ruined the era of peace by invading Afghanistan and storming Czechoslovakia. Khrushchev sucked but at least out of his incompetence and weakness, some stability was temporarily given to the world between the east and west.
@@warrioroflight6872 I said worst in the aspect that he wasn’t better than Brezhnev in my eyes, it’s my fault for not better clarifying that. I was mostly talking about how Khrushchev reforms aren’t/weren’t as big as people think. It didn’t really allow for the Soviet citizens to really see much changes to their own lives and the media they consumed. Like I also said, he later goes back on a good amount of them as Khrushchev wouldn’t agree with forms of art, movies, and more which he would usually get the state to ban. Though I will admit that the more private housing policies he would pursue and the increased consumerism in the Soviet Union were some good things to come out of his time.
The Tsarist regime had been rapidly modernizing before the rise of the Bolsheviks, and the war and internal oppression the latter instigated was extremely costly. It set Russia back decades
And who was it that tries to stop the war between Russia and Germany? The Kaiser and the Tsar. The more I read about the July crisis, the more I see how the Monarchs were actually the ones trying to stop the war.

@@BolshevikCarpetbagger1917
I could tell. I don't want to sound rude, but your profile picture was a dead giveaway.
With all due respect, you are misguided. History is a bloodfest, and the Bolsheviks were no exception. The story of humanity is the story of everyone believing that their ideas are superior to everyone else's, and the picture is seldom pretty when unbridled power is given to one group of people.
Worst of all, the Bolsheviks saw evil everywhere but within themselves, and that made them the most susceptible to its corruption regardless of any pretty words they said.
Unfortunately, that's how the world works.
Words are cheap. It's results that actually matter. There's a reason why no one has ever been able to deliver on their arrogant promises to fix all the world's problems. Benevolence and wisdom are always in short supply, and anyone who claims that they have a great abundance of both is probably the complete opposite.
@@BolshevikCarpetbagger1917 Do you deny that Lenin invaded Ukraine and Belarus and attempted to invade Poland?
Russia needed a strong czar who would have executed Lenin, Trotsky and company back in 1905. Weakness of leadership is what caused the Bolshevik Revolution to succeed.👎

Great video, the conclusion where you stated that communist believe that they were supported by the people remind me of of the exact same lie about the French Revolution ! How many time I here that the Revolution was overwhelmingly supporting by the people against the tyranny of Louis XVI although, this is not true and the King was loved by many French until Varennes, it really started to crumble from here !
Generally when the King starves his people, they get a bit upset. Educate yourself on the French Revolution. Start by reading The Rights of Man by Thomas Paine, one of the leaders of the American Revolution.
@@BolshevikCarpetbagger1917 The King never willingly let starves the people to death. The Kingdom of France was riddled by debt because of the defeat in the Seven Year's. it only got worse when Louis XVI founded the American Revolution as he saw it as good to weaken France's main enemy : England ! Furthermore, the year 1784-1788 saw droughts and violents storms in summer and harsh winters that's lead to recessions. In order to solve the many issues that the monarchy struggled with, Louis XVI 8th 1788, the list of grievances were written then the representatives were elected and sent to the Estates General to solve the problems but they were issues on the way to vote : the Nobility and the Clergy wanted to vote by orders for the majority while the Third Estate wanted by heads for the equality. Louis XVI wasn't really experimented and didn't really know how to solve the situation and the fact that his eldest son Louis Joseph the 4th of June didn't help him at all. To conclude, Louis XVI wasn't a King who wanted his people to starve as you pretend.
P.S. : If he was starving his own people, tell me why an entire region of France would revolt full of peasants would revolt against the revolutionnaries in reaction to the death of the King and mass concription for the Revolutionnary war (aka war in the Vendée) ???
Silly comment so many monarchs fan the boys trying to kiss the feet of autocratic authoritarian bodies.
@@BolshevikCarpetbagger1917funny how your quoting a man who would find your ideology disgusting.
@RonanHarkins-xk5zz On the contrary, Thomas Paine's ideology could be at best described as proto-socialist.
Tsar Nicolas being killed was the worst tragedy by the Red's in my mind. He wasn't the best leader by any means but i don't think he was a bad man, he just wasn't ready to lead. Not to mention killing his whole family. Exile would have still been awful, but at least they could have kept their lives. Lenin, Stalin, Mao, all of them are butchers who sadly aren't called out enough here in the west. In school we only learned about the tragedy's by the Fascists, but not the Communists.
Dude was an incompetent psychopathic manchild.
Just coz Lenin and Stalin destroyed my country doesn't mean I won't forget slavery

He sucked for America. We named pop-up shanty towns "Hoovervilles" after him. He was also partially responsible for the depression to begin with so for him to fix it would be nonsensical, unless you just want to keep alot of the background financial infrastructure that made the depression possible.
Lenin was perfectly clear in his correspondence with Bernstein, the 'revolution was too important to be left to the proletariat and must happen without them'. He also conceded that capitalism had already solved most of the conditions Marx had intended Communism to solve, and all of this was pre-WWI.
When was this said? Is it in a book I can read?
The policy called war communism was the most brutal time period of any country. The Bolshevik’s came and killed my great grandfather and his entire family of 4 because they where considered kulaks. Why you might ask because they had a horse and cow while others didn’t. The Russian revolution thru the country thru famine and political prosecutions then came collectivization!
If you really want a video that pretty much overlaps communism and Nazism in terms of body count, I’d recommend the Soviet Story.
Do not equate National socialism to bolshevism. It only existed in oposition to bolshevism
@@lightattheend5023 That may be the case, but whoever made the Soviet Story was obviously overlapping and equating it.

@@ZeroResurrected I mean it's true
In 1927, under the guidance of the Soviet Russians, the first Soviet regime in China was founded - Hailufeng Soviet. The Chinese communists committed documented cannibalism against land owners they persecuted in Canton, NOT because they were hungry, but to express their revolutionary pleasure and hatred. I am only going to translate SOME of the Chinese communist evil deeds:
For those fortunate landlords, it was grace if they were killed without being tortured. It was lucky if they were cut off of one limb, witnessing others were cooked and eaten, and then being executed themselves. Some were quartered. Others were locked into boxes, and sawed into pieces slowly alive, while the torturers would take a rest and drank tea to lengthen the sufferings.
Communist Youth League member CHEN Shaomin recalls: The second evening he went back to the county to report his work. When he was in the zone of talking with his classmates about the process of their regime change, a bitter cry appeared. It turned out that Captain WU Zhenmin was interrogating the evil landlord of Mei Long. Captain Wu asked (the victim), "Is it very painful?" So much was his hatred towards the land-owning class. The second evening, our classmate ZHENG Junmin and two others transported several landlords to the train station for execution by order. A seriously fat landlord was too sacred to walk. So he was dragged. After a while, those classmates accomplished the mission and came back. We were about to take off our clothes and went to bed. Suddenly, I saw Comrade ZHENG Junmin was carrying a piece of fat white meat on his back. I was suspicious. It was late night, where did the fat meat come from? So I asked him, "Where does your little fat meat come from that you are carrying on your back?" He answered seriously, "We are to eat his flesh, and sleep on his skin. Tonight I take this little piece, to let you guys taste the fat white oily meat of those landlords who fed on the blood and sweat of the peasants." This remark, made all the classmates within the bedroom laugh.

1927年10月11日，国际恐怖组织在南粤（Cantonia）成立海陆丰苏维埃政权。
“这个政权发动了真正的消灭地主的斗争。在那里，大约有三、四百个地主被砍了脑袋。（鼓掌。有人在座位上喊道：「少了，还要多一些。」）在这个有几百万居民的地区内，地主已经被从肉体上消灭了。最后，我们现在还看到整个广东，特别是在广州周围，已经形成非常紧张的局势。”（ 布哈林：《国际形势和共产国际的任务 - - 在联（共）布第十五次代表大会上的报告》（1927年12月13日），引自中共中央党史研究室第一研究部编：《共产国际、联共（布）与中国革命文献资料选辑（1927-1931）》（上），中央文献出版社，2002，第25页）
“很清楚，在这个政府的统治下 - - 实际上是专政 - - 农民对共产主义事业的信仰的问题，已不再用同样的措词。即使我们考虑到有强迫的成分，考虑到有超过五万的居民从这两个县逃到香港、汕头和广州（并非全是有钱人，远非如此），也考虑到有许多农民确实主要出于狭隘的原因参加了叛乱，事实依然是，大量的农民支持这个取销了他们的债务，废除了他们的地租的政权（虽然支持的程度有所不同，从积极到被动的同路）。即使他们并非有意识地寻求革命，他们发现自己登上了革命之舟，并且与其说他们是集体化的支持者，还不如说他们是恢复旧秩序的支持者，但他们中的大多数人从这一变革中获益匪浅，而害怕地主阶级复辟。
还有更紧迫的理由害怕复辟：许多人可能已没有逃避报复的希望，因为他们曾卷入抢劫、放火和杀人，总之，他们实施了「红色恐怖」。苏维埃当局曾有计划地采取恐怖活动 - - 像往常一样，着眼于动员农民。农民既需要鼓励，从心理上摆脱屈从的枷锁（通过变得确信旧秩序已经被摧毁，决不可能恢复），也需要使之参加破坏和屠杀的行动，使他们不可能后退或开小差。总之，这个计划是从海陆丰消除一切中立和一切保留：「谁不和我们站在一起就是反对我们。」因此，在一大群被邀去喝彩和提出意见的人中，出现了公开的、甚至戏剧性的处决反革命的场面：「这些罪犯该不该杀？」甚至被邀积极参加屠杀。从而也有了组织「人头会」的习惯，它预示着（通常这是从相反的方向）诗人普雷韦尔所描绘的「人头宴」。但是在海丰没有宴会；只是把新近砍下的头穿在讲坛上方的一根绳上，为演说者激烈的言词提供一个恰如其分的布景。
不过，在海陆丰实际上也有宴会。有时（例如在捷胜）甚至出现拒绝吃受害者心肝的那些人被斥为「假兄弟」。但首创这种人肉宴的是农民自己，而不是苏维埃当局。彭湃故意制造的恐怖主义（不可能有怜悯和饶恕的问题，因为那意味着对革命者的冷漠和残忍）使人联想到圣茹斯特冷冰冰的推理，但这与农民恐怖主义的虐待狂式的欢庆、丰富和巧妙发挥无关。公开行刑吗？公开行刑比示众好；是许多农民参加，不应错过的节日，由于高喊「杀，杀，杀」而嗓音嘶哑。至于（更大量的）不公开示众的处决，到两星期过了以后，苏维埃政府也无需给行刑者以报酬：赤卫队员（大多是青年农民）非常乐于执行这种令人羡慕的光荣任务。对一个反革命来说，没有受拷问就被杀死是一种恩典。那些被砍下一肢，亲眼看到他人被煮熟吃掉，然后被杀死的人是幸运的。有些人被大卸八块，另一些人被关在一个板箱里，被慢条斯理地锯成一块块，而行刑者们还不时停下来喝茶休息，以延长其痛苦。”（ 费正清、费维恺编：《剑桥中华民国史1912-1949》（下），中国社会科学出版社，北京，1993，第354-356页）
共青团员陈绍民回忆，他“回县述职第二天晚上，在卧室内和同学谈论此次夺取政权的经过，正谈得入神的时候，忽传来一阵嚎啕痛哭的声音，原来大队长（吴振民）在审问梅陇的恶霸地主，用大木棍打他。还清晰地听到吴大队长这样地骂了一句：「好痛吗？」他对地主阶级的仇恨就是如此。第二天晚上，我们的同学郑俊民等三人奉命押解受审的几个地主到火车头枪决。一个很肥胖的地主吓得走不动了，给拉着走去。一会儿几个同学完成任务回来了，大伙正想宽衣上床，忽然，我看郑俊民同志的背上带有一块白肥肉，我心里怀疑，半夜三更，这小块肥肉是从那里来的？就问他说：「你的背上那块小肥肉是怎么来的？」他却一本正经地说：「我们要食其肉，寝其皮，今晚带回这一小块，让你们尝一尝用农民的血汗养的那些地主老爷肥腻腻的白肉是怎么样的味道。」这句话，逗引了卧室里的同学哄堂大笑。” （陈绍民：《大革命时期的海丰农民自卫军》，引自中国人民政治协商会议广东省委员会文史资料研究委员会编：《广东文史资料》第三十辑，广东人民出版社，1981，第76页）

And Earth day is on Lenin's birthday. I kinda doubt that that's a coincidence.
It's not. It's to diminish the significance of Lenin.
I still did not see all of the videos produced on this channel, but from what I know, (and is honestly not talked about very often), is what the Tzarist regime was like before the war and why the war was failed.
The monarchy liberated the peasants in such ways, that those who choose to work hard for another 5 years could keep their land and those who did not had an opportunity to work in factories. (Interestingly enough, the workers were the ones most easily swayed by socialist thoughts). The other fascinating part, is that the Russian army was PLAUGED by the constant stupidity of the socialist agitators, who actually made the soldiers stop fighting often times and gave back won positions. The Russian army was plauged by these issues.
So yeah, more research and knowledge about these years is good and what happened before and during the Russian revolution, and most importantly to the monarchy is important to know. The Mad Monarchist is a good start though he did not provide sources.
WTF are you saying 🤷♂️🤦♂️
You have any book recs?
This is nonsense. Alexander II's freedom of the Serfs came with massive caveats like the Serfs having to buy out their landlords for the loss of their "property" (themselves) and the land they were given, which entrenched a status quo of massive generational debt for the vast majority of former Serfs, i.e their conditions only changed marginally for the better. Meanwhile for the small number of urban factory workers conditions were hellish. In 1890s Petrograd the average worker worked for 13 hours a day for subsistence wages and did not have any social welfare or the right to strike and usually lived in a barracks style accommodation, sharing a room with 10-15 people. The Tsarist government also massively mishandled the economy during the war, with food prices increasing 6x from 1914-1916.
I'm a supporter of Martov and Luxemburg, I heavily dislike Lenin and the Bolsheviks, but pretending that Tsarist Russia was just fine prior to the Revolution is delusional.
Whoa… this video was… harrowing. I knew that the Soviets starved out millions of their people, but I didn’t realize that it started IMMEDIATELY. Wow…. Really goes to show what a disaster communism is.

Marxists and communists act as if they are above thinking in terms of personalities, but what is their ideology but a literal personification of Marx, Engels, and Lenin, with the occasional Stalinist and Maoist? Just think for a minute, if personalities do not factor into the agenda of historical materialism, why then do they despise Trotsky? Wasn't he doing what was materialistically necessary of him to do? On the other hand, suppose Trotsky had claimed Stalin's position? Would he not have been as bad as Stalin? again, because he would have faced the same material obstacles as Stalin and so would have reacted in the same way.
So what is it, commies? Is history driven by material and economic needs, or is it the personalities of great men? Remind me again the names of the men whose faces are on those red flags and sigils you wave around are.

Actually, that's not a bad point.
@Tutu boy
The woke degenerates don't seem to mind associating themselves with Marxism.
That's what woke ideology is, actually-a continuation of Marxism. No wonder it's causing so much damage.
Tbf I knew that Lenin and Soviet Russia weren’t great to begin with, its just I didn’t exactly realise how bad they were. I always had this idea that Stalin was the man who turned the USSR into a nightmare and that he warped Lenin’s revolution to fit his own personal interests and increase his power base. Whilst I still think this is true, the Bolshevik Revolution was a bloody affair from the very beginning, and it wasn’t Stalin’s policies in the ‘30s that turned it violent. In fact, the worst violence probably preceded Stalin’s reign in the chaos of Lenin’s rise and consoldiation of power. I would say Lenin presided over turmoil and anarchy in the vacuum of the Russian Empire which he was attempting to control, resulting in mass deaths and huge suffering.
Not only that, the gulag system started under Lenin. I've not been able to find much real information on him and I assumed, wrongly, that the gulag network was Stalin's doing. I've read somewhere that by 1921, there were 84 camps operating. So "Peace. Land. Bread" turned into civil war, no private property and starvation.
This is just me questioning a bit but why was black book of communism used as a source. From my understanding it’s considered unreliable and drastically raises the death toll. This is just me questioning it and I’d always love to have someone inform me as such
Agreed but overall his sources check out. The black book is fine when discussing atrocities but unreliable on numbers. You can thank the main author for that, a practice which the other authors of the book, many of whom were historians, criticized him for.
Very similar to cambodia under pol pot
Where do you think Pol Pot got the idea? That wasnt a grass roots movement.
And Ethiopia under Mengistu Haile Mariam.

V.I. Lenin:
"But the dictatorship of the proletariat cannot be exercised through an organisation embracing the whole of that class, because in all capitalist countries (and not only over here, in one of the most backward) the proletariat is still so divided, so degraded, and so corrupted in parts (by imperialism in some countries) that an organisation taking in the whole proletariat cannot directly exercise proletarian dictatorship. It can be exercised only by a vanguard that has absorbed the revolutionary energy of the class." [V. I. Lenin, "The trade unions, the present situation", December 1920. - fifth section in the text.]

"To govern you need an army of steeled revolutionary Communists. We have it, and it is called the Party. All this syndicalist nonsense about mandatory nominations of producers must go into the wastepaper basket. To proceed on those lines would mean thrusting the Party aside and making the dictatorship of the proletariat in Russia impossible." [V. I. Lenin, The Second All-Russia Congress of Miners, January 23, 1921. Last section of the first part of the text.]
V.I.Lenin supported party dictatorship:
"The irrefutable experience of history has shown that... the dictatorship of individual persons was very often the vehicle, the channel of the dictatorship of the revolutionary classes". "Large-scale machine industry - which is the material productive source and foundation of socialism - calls for absolute and strict unity of will...
How can strict unity of will be ensured? By thousands subordinating their will to the will of one." "Unquestioning submission to a single will is absolutely necessary for the success of labour processes that are based on large-scale machine industry . . . Today the Revolution demands, in the interests of socialism, that the masses unquestioningly obey the single will of the leaders of the labour process."
(V.I.Lenin, Selected Works, Vol. VII, pages 332-333, 340-342)
"To our program will we add the following: we must fight the ideological confusion of the elements of the opposition who are not aware and do not mind to reject all 'militarization of the economy' and not only reject 'the method of appointment', which has been the dominating up to now, but all appointments. This means in fact a rejection of the leading role of the party in relation to the masses who have no party." (V.I.Lenin, januari 21, 1921, Selected Works, Vol IX, page 57)
L.D.Trotsky:
"They have come out with dangerous slogans. They have made a fetish of democratic principles. They have placed the workers right to elect representatives above the party. As if the party was not entitled to assert its dictatorship even if that dictatorship temporarily clashed with the passing moods of the workers' democracy!" (Party Congress, 8-16 March 1921.)
"Is it true that compulsory labour is always unproductive? . . . This is the most wretched and miserable liberal prejudice: chattel slavery too was productive" . . . "Compulsory slave labour . . . was in its time a progressive phenomenon". "Labour . . . obligatory for the whole country, compulsory for every worker, is the basis of socialism." "Wages . . . must not be viewed from the angle of securing the personal existence of the individual worker"... "measure the conscientiousness, and efficiency of the work of every labourer." (Third All-Russian Congress of Trade Unions, stenographic report, Moscow 1920, pages 87-97.)
"A competent, hierarchic organized civil administration had its advantages. Russia did not suffer from too big, but too small and ineffective bureaucracy." "The militarization of the unions and the transport system was in need of an inner ideological militarization." (Sochineniya, XV, s. 422-423)

He supported a 1 party system because of outside influence which would infiltrate and ruin socialism (which happened) and that dictatorship of the proletariat is crucial for the next step towards communism.
Lenin also demanded decentralization of the government and wanted more power to the soviet SSR's, giving them more autonomy. Of course most of it never happened it was rolled back due to Stalin, which promoted Soviet nationalism, instead of each ssr ethnicity's nationality.
Lenin was not an oppritunist. He was always a Bolshevik simce he joined it which was at the time weaker and smaller then the Mensheviks. He never switched sides. He always stuck to his and Marx's beliefs. You can call Leon Trotsky a populist but thats not what we're talking about.
You cannot blame Lenin for the government owning the production as him betraying his beliefs. He was not going to communism at that time. As it wasn't feasibly possible. Communism is to be achieved from capitalism to socialism, then transitioning to communism.
@@user-tp8pf5ke8o Why can I not blame Lenin as the party he represented betrayed the working class with a party dictatorship? The quotes speak for themselves, mirroring a state-capitalist agenda:
From the time of 1918 is it clear Lenin was no communist. His political agenda was state-capitalism which he somehow claimed would lead to communism. Lenin not once neither said nor wrote that the working class population were to rule - instead he represented a bourgeois method of the masses delegating the power to a party. The rest is history with a war on the councils (soviets) and even abolishing the internal elections in the ruling party.
@@Bjorn-OlavKvidal1917 you fail to understand that the NEP was essential to the transition to socialism. Karl Marx had said that himself. Capitalism is a great way for governments to earn a lot of money.
@@Bjorn-OlavKvidal1917 Lenin was also dealing with a destroyed agriculture based economy, which Marx had not thought the revolution was for. He intended it for industrial based countries. Lenin said himself the NEP was the last stage of capitalism before going to socialism.

Now you only forgot the part where you tell how the majority of communists (mostly in high positions) where of a certain ethnic group of wich their name shall not be uttered. And that they certainly weren't out to destroy the slavic peoples so they could have a strong basis to try and spread it to the rest of the world.
You should also make a video about Weimar republic Berlin, that shit is beyond fucked up.
... just say you're a nazi. Stop trying to "hide your power level" you're fooling no one and aren't speaking any "esoteric truth" no matter how hard you will cope to say its true.
If Weimar Germany was "fucked up" then I wonder what kind of totally non "fucked up" system of government you'd have advocated for as the solution.
Hitler participated a rather temporary revolutionary government while still in the military during the early years of that "republic".
"Now you only forgot the part where you tell how the majority of communists (mostly in high positions) where of a certain ethnic group of wich their name shall not be uttered. "
Who counts as a member of this certain ethnic group? Do the grand-children of said ethnic group count? Even if the grand-children didn't even know their grand-parents belonged to said ethnic group? Lenin for example didn't know his grandfather belonged to said ethnic group. Why does this certain ethnic group matter? What would be the purpose of pointing out that a majority of communists in high positions belonged to this certain ethnic group?

You like a lot of others won't address that many Jews were Bolsheviks because it would be "anti-semitic" to do so. The organized Gulag that appeared in 1928 (White Sea-Baltic canal project) introduced unbelievable conditions and was entirely designed and headed by Jews:
Lazar Kogan (Head of Gulag and Chief of Construction 1930-32)
Matvei Berman (Deputy Head of Gulag to 1931 and Head from 1932)
Seymon Firin (Assistant to Deputy Head of the Gulag 1932 and Deputy Head from 1933)
Yakov Rapoport (Deputy Chief of Construction from 1931)
Naftaly Frenkel (Assistant Head of Canal Construction)
Genrik Yagoda (Deputy Head of OGPU (NKVD) secret police from 1924 and later Head until 1936)
Five of them received the Order of Lenin for their Gulag "successes" with the sixth(Firin) writing a celebratory book about it.
This same group went on to head the Gulag as it spread throughout Soviet Russia ("metastasized" is the word used by Solzhenitsyn) and Russia found itself with a new Jewish "revolutionary" bourgeoisie (described in detail by Slezkine in his book, " The Jewish Century ") moving into the better class homes of their victims and enjoying elite educational academies, Pushkin evenings and visiting their country dachas (the inspiration for George Orwell's " Animal Farm ").
The Ukrainian death-famine (Holodomor 1932-33 in which 6-7 million Ukranians died 30% of them being children)which was organized by Lazar Kaganovich, aided by Yagoda, with a majority of Jewish NKVD officers, meticulously removing all foodstuff from the country, killing wild animals and sending out inspection teams with any hoarding punishable by death.
They didn’t like the tsar for his oppression against the Jews, go figure.
Nobody mentions the 1 third of humanity that goes to sleep 'hungry' ..

This zoomer didn't even watch the video
From my POV and just from what I have read. I see Lenin as having been a voice for the working class and poor. IMHO there were bad actors that infiltrated and took Lenin's party over. He was a staunch proletariat, his last few years in office were done in a state of incapacitation after having been shot 3 times and enduring a series of strokes.
I'll even give you a short timeline of events:
In 1917 Pravda, the Bolshevik newspaper, refused to publish Lenin's 'April Theses' on April, 17th, 1917.
Just a year later on March 3rd, 1918 Lenin would sign the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk which effectively withdrew Russia from WWI.
4 months later, on July 16th Yakov Yurovsky on the orders of Yakov Sverdlov executed the Royal family.
2 weeks later on August 30, 1918, Fanny Kaplan, would try to assassinate Lenin after a speech at the Hammer and Sickle factory.
And just 3 days after that, while Lenin was convalescing, Yakov Sverdlov, who ordered the Romanov family executed and who I believe actually controlled the Bolsheviks put his 'Red Terror' plans into motion. Ultimately killing over 26 million Christians.
Lenin would never fully recover, yet remained Head of State until 1922. His dream of a proletariat, worker led government wold never be realized. Having died just 2 years later after suffering several strokes due to the assassination attempt 6 years earlier.
>Ultimately killing over 26 million Christians.
This is nazi dogwhistle. No, Lenin fully supported the terror and planned for it from ahead if you bother to read him both before and after the revolution. The Terror ceased once Dzerzhinsky handed over a report to Lenin and decided that the death penality has finished its role and that there is no longer a need for be so liberal (freely) with it.
Yakov Sverdlov did not sign any order to execute the Romanovs. It was a hastey decision taken by the delegates of the Party out of fear that the White Army might recover them and give them a moral boost. Many in the party thought that the best way was to have a proper trial of the tsar and put him in reformative labour camp to see if they can make him change his mind and use him as a propaganda tool just as Puyi in China was used.
Also the account of 26 million is absurd. That amount would be the total of the losses since the start of WW1 until the end of the Civil War. As I remember the numbers of executions by the Red Terror was around 11k.

@swarmpope9608 Yes, and they're distortion of history is somehow making autocrats appear to be more humane to the people than a idiology that openly preaches about equality. Not saying that communism in itself doesn't have its faults, but it has more to do with people's rights than monarchism
