I believe him to be an honourable man. He did see the good in the fight to improve the working and living conditions of the common man, but he also seemed to realise how utopian the communist ideal is, and why it led to decades of atrocities and oppression courtesy of the state. We really should be wary of those who wish to re-attempt the march towards the communist ideal, and I view them little differently from Hitlerean crackpots.

Sometime would it be possible for you to do a segment about the Soviet Union’s “Nomenklatura?” I once read a book by Arkady Shevchenko called “Breaking with Moscow” where he talks extensively about the privileges of the ruling bureaucrats and leaders in “classless society” of the Soviet Unión.

Repeat offenders likely faced severe consequences, such as being subjected to the harsh conditions of labor camps. However, it is important to mention that not all individuals were sent on the journey to Siberian camps. Dissidents during the Brezhnev era were labeled as mentally ill by the KGB and confined to psychiatric hospitals to complete their sentences. This was because the authorities believed that only someone who was mentally unstable would oppose the communist party.

It's interesting that there was a riot in Azerbaijan over Stalin...Stalin was Georgian after all. Georgians are Christian, Azeris are Muslim, Azeri is a Turkic language, Georgian is it's own language family. I know that there was some mixing in the Caucuses..maybe that particular city had a bunch of Georgians. BTW there were also riots in Georgia (1956) over de-Stalinization. To this day Stalin is seen as a local boy made good among a segment of Georgian society both in Georgia itself and among the Georgian diaspora in the RF.

I find it kind of ironic when I read once that Lenin banned "Striking" in the Soviet Union, and lets say, it never really became "Unbanned" throughout the USSR's history. Even when the Party said it's okay, in actuality it wasn't okay. It is funny because banning worker's right to "Strike" was something people point at Hitler doing as proof he wasn't a Socialist, yet they flat out ignore within the Soviet Union even the Prophet Lenin himself, also banned protest and striking. This reason for this, if your movement is meant to represent the working man, and yes the Nazis believed they did. If people were protesting/striking against the Party, then it would be proof the Party didn't have the Worker's Interest at heart. Which would undermined the entire movement. So you were banned from even doing so. Since the party had your best interest at heart, striking was no longer necessary. *winks* It's a similar issue with why Stalin was obsessed with getting all Soviet citizens returned to the USSR after WWII, regardless whether they wanted to return of not. The US and British governments aided in forceful repatriation of millions of eastern Europeans many of which didn't want to return. Those who didn't want to return were forced, and sometimes violently. Good example are Soviet POWs who were captured in German uniform and were forced by the Nazis to man the Atlantic Wall. A lot were captured, a lot of them preferring to commit self deletion rather than returning, the US Military resorting to drugging them just to get them on a Soviet merchant ship. Mind you all that happened before Stalin played his hand and made the Cold War happen, and proved to the west he couldn't be trusted as an Ally. At the time the US/UK were trying to appease him. I would state the specific operation as Operation K%%l Haul < and sadly yes that gets comments deleted because the US/UK governments still denied it happened despite being proven to have happened. If you recall 006 from Goldeneye the story is actually brought up in that film with the main villain being a victim of the repatriations. TIKhistory actually has a 3 part video series on this Operation and it's kind of a sad story for a lot of people. However, the reason for all this, was that all these people knew what it really was like inside the USSR, and many of them didn't want to come back after being Prisoners in central or western europe. According to some even being in a concentration camp was better than living under Stalin, which is a terrifying thought because we know those camps were not good places. Basically to sum it up, allowing these people not to return would of created a permanent voice outside the USSR on how terrible the USSR actually was and the USSR was always obsessed with it's image internationally, and how the outside world viewed it. It's also why going on Vacation abroad as a Soviet citizen was lets say heavily monitored and scripted. You had to be part of a tour group operated by the Soviet Union or a Cruise ship. Basically attempting to safeguard your pure mind. They didn't want their citizens to see the world as it really was outside the USSR. Otherwise they'd see the USSR for what it really was.

@leonamvonborowsky7559 27 дней назад

The Soviet experience is full of such contradictions, in part due to the Cold War and the fragility of sinsible internal information being stowed away by spies somewhat easly. This is something that the Chinese and Cuban experiences, for example, are so interesting. Protests are incentivized in Cuba and many times the politicians themselves participate in solidarity, while in China protests are very powerful for changing some policies. Not to mention Cuban doctors going abroad with minimal supervision. Losing the paranoia-policies about the strenght of the ideology is one thing modern communists can point as a success, at least.

@Alte.Kameraden 27 дней назад

@@leonamvonborowsky7559 To be honest that isn't exactly correct. It's a Facade. They do it to calm the populous and nothing more. So many Chinese citizens have shown footage of just how staged China's response to social unrest is ie, they fake solidarity, with actors, and staged events showing how good of a job they are doing "not" actually fixing the issues the people are complaining about. For example last years heavy flooding, they literally brought film crews showing the emergency personnel being heroic, but the people they were rescuing were actors, and the whole event they filmed of them rescuing people was that, staged. Meanwhile thousands of people in China died last year from flooding, and the response by the authority was terrible at best. But they created a facade publicly that they were doing a "Good Job" meanwhile the government lied heavily about the death tolls and how much damage the floods actually caused, and how good the government response to the floods etc etc etc. Favorite ones are when they get water hoses out so make it look like it was storming when filming one of them. Basically they STILL CARE more about their IMAGE than the people they're supposed to be serving. China's modern strategy has nothing to do with solidarity but basically creating a facade of actually helping. Basically convince the people they're on top of everything so they have no reason to riot. When they do riot, join the riot and pretend you care. They learned from how bad the PR was from a specific college student protest that eventually turned into a riot which sadly you can not always mention without worry of censorship. So now the CCP has become a master at facades.. hopefully to trick the people into think everything is swell. Heck I remember one tunnel that flooded last year they pulled hundreds of vehicles out of it, and it flooded so fast no one had a chance to get out of the tunnel. Totally didn't happen according to the CCP.

@Alte.Kameraden 27 дней назад

@@leonamvonborowsky7559 Also about China. China has opened up police stations across much of the world. to monitor it's own citizens abroad. So if you think people from China who are outside of China are free from the glitches of the CCP, no they're not. There was a big scandal over this in NYC last year as well. When the NYPD found out China literally had a number of POLICE stations opened in the city specifically to, control it's citizens in the city. Even being outside of China Chinese are not free.

The ideology had to build a wall to stop people leaving and lie that it was an anti-spy wall. People had to obtain permission to travel abroad. Out of suspicion and fear the Party had to monopolise _everything_ . 'We are for the people... who we distrust.' No, this was not strength. It was utter weakness.

Wherever there's people there's potential for stuff like this. People gonna get angry (sometimes wasted on a grain alcohol - aka riot punch) and take to turning over cars and lighting things in fire for reasons that dont seem to add up? For instance, an American national sports collective wins a title or trophy or whatever at the end of a long season of play, even harder play offs in the run up to the big game and then the people in the hometown of the winning team, start rioting. Sometimes people riot because they lost. Sometimes cos they won. Sometimes they riot because they are whipped into a frenzy by the media or even locals with entirely fictitious nonsense. Other times people riot over legit reasons, like the local government ignoring the pleas of a community being poisoned with a tainted municipal water source And so on and so on People in big numbers love to get all churned up and cut loose. The reasons always vary as do their ethnic background and political affiliations. No matter the. 'paradise' We as a species love to start wrecking our own environments and brutally savaging each other in our streets. Why? Because! Humans. That's it. It's that simple: ... Humans! 🎉 Honestly, I'm surprised there wasn't more riots in the Soviet Union during certain events in history like Chernobyl and the local SSR handling of it like ignoring all the radioactivity reading and just allowing state festivals to take place outdoors in areas where the freshly ejected radioactive vapor was hanging very densely over neighboring cities. ⚠️Stay tuned for my country is gonna be another hotbed of political unrest and violent upheaval in the coming seasons. 💣🥀💔🎉
