Review of all books by historian Vladimir Brovkin

[@WorkingProleinc]

Happy New Year Finbol😊 And to Other Comrades.

[@tavishhari5529]

If you would have noticed a pattern most bourgeois anticommunist historians peddle two things the most (other than exaggerating excesses on the Red side often using shoddy sources and at times downplaying the popular nature of terror and class hatred): 1 They often downplay the atrocities, anti-semitism and nationalism of the Green bands that fought against the Bolsheviks. 2 Try to paint peasants as victims when middle peasant and kulak refusal to sell enough grain to the cities led urban areas to the brink of famine in early/mid 1918. Only requisitions helped fight off urban famine by late 1919. 3 If they are not stupid enough to openly back the Whites they try to confuse the reader into thinking the Reds were as brutal and repressive as Whites if not more.

Will you respond to that 2 hours "Heterdox Marxism" video?

[@bismarckfamily277]

in his discord server he said he will give a look into it when he has time for it I hope for my drama entertainment that will be as soon as possible

[@ethankay9069]

@@bismarckfamily277Yea Heterdox Marxism cites Cohen a lot even though as Getty states, Cohen cites a lot of dishonest Khruschevite that have clearly been proven false with the archives opening up

Who is and what the hell is ¨Heterdox¨ Marxism??

[@slipknotboy555]

From what I've seen of his channel, it seems like he's (HM) probably just some "left" com, and I get the feeling that when he accuses FinnBol of "dishonesty," it's likely him just being like "This doesn't line up with anticommunist "scholarship," so he's lying!" I could be wrong, but let's be real, that's extremely common with the anti-ML crowd, haha.

Happy new years comrade!

When can we get finbol Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic background gameplay?

[@nikolabolesnik]

Brovkin is such a clown, and people still take peer reviews seriously.

[@W4jayk854]

Thanks, this was fun!

[@djriqky9581]

I always come back to this channel to learn about socialist books and texts and get the best understanding and context of the quotes. Thank you man for being a educator of marxism and Marxist leninist revolution

[@MamadouKane-w6f]

Great Video 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Hey, just out of curiosity, are you planning on doing a review of Michael Parenti’s bibliography sometime in the future? He is, after all, a very talented writer and influential Marxist scholar.

[@danielv6906]

Great video! Thank you for your tireless work!

[@CHAOS9H]

damn we leveled up to minecraft gameplay, im eagerly waiting for a response to heterodox marxism, he has some ok critiques but then there are some that are just weird imo. Ty for making content you have been a great help, specially the videos on the economics manual of the soviet union.

[@PGouges35]

Hi TFB! Longtime listener, thank you for your remarkably consistent critical historical thinking work! I just had an account I like on BlueSky recommend The Socialist System: The Political Economy of Communism by János Kornai and it looks anti-communist but well-written. If that is indeed the case, I would love to see your take on Mr Kornai's work

[@PROZAvital]

Love the dry humor

[@beangobernador]

I like somewhat moist humor

[@slipknotboy555]

Great stuff as always, comrade! Gotta love how dishonest (and reactionary) these people are.

[@omeganichtdieuhrsondernder6906]

HELL YEAH Minecraft let's play by our great Chairman.

[@thechekist2044]

It's interesting Brovkin started as a Menshevik sympathiser and ended up a full blown tsarist.

4:02 the mensheviks 'sort of petered out' in the early 20s. True, the party was banned after the kronstad incident. That will make you peter out.

[@casualguy2991]

So which books should one read to learn more about the russian revolution? Also whoch books on the soviet union in general?

[@tavishhari5529]

Along with Figes and Carr do you plan to review Rogovin, Kuromiya, SA Smith, Moshe Lewin and Fitzpatrick's works? (Pipes' stuff won't be worth reviewing obviously)

[@thefinnishbolshevik2404]

Yes. You think Pipes isn't even worth reading?

[@tavishhari5529]

@@thefinnishbolshevik2404 Yeah. Even those who aren't communists like Simon Pirani demolish Pipes work. Same with Volkogonov's post 1991 work (apart from a few important facts).

Fascism? How?

[@dakshkataria7959]

maybe you should just have the photo of the book insted of minecraft

It would be more professional, but also who's going to look at a book cover for a whole hour?
