I swear to god, the part where Lenin and his wife went from a fake married couple to actually falling in love and getting married sounds right out of a novel. I love it.

that happened many times in the Chinese revolution: CPC operative in cities had to pair up and fake their identities and relations, and ended up falling in love with each other and marrying

Props to Hakim for recognizing the contributions of Jenny Marx.

I’m half Ukrainian but never ever hear anything about early Soviet history growing up in the “West” other than “Stalin bad” so this stuff was really cool to learn!

[@danubeisreallypeculiarrive7944]

I mean I live in Slovakia and they teach us about Lenins "tyranny". They don't mention decriminalizing homosexuality and make living conditions better. Lets just say that anti-communist propaganda in post-Warsaw pact countries is pretty strong.

I've never had heard before of those two absolute Stacys. Maria Okiabrskaya sounds based af and "Lady Death" Lyudmila Pavlichenko is basically a James Bond character. Historiography rarely focus so much on great women. Rosa Luxembourg, Clara Zetkin, Nadeshka Krupskiya, Aleksandra Kollontai, and many more have awesome stories that should be told.

[@chungus816]

Clara zetkin was a massive Chad, she deserves her own segment

[@PvlC]

You forgot to mention that we still have Lenin's body in crystal glass sarcophagus in Masoluem on Red Square, so in light of your podcast the real reason they put him there could be that soviet Chads would be able to come and check if they lift enough to compare to our strong bro we respect so much. P. S. : masoleum is open for visitors now, if there's Chads here who are interested)

[@florafox3414]

As a comrade in her 30s Mariya Oktyabrskaya's story is fucking inspiring.

[@geodude205]

Maria Oktyabrskaya definetely wasn't the first woman to get the Hero of the Soviet Union award, or maybe she was idk. I think Anna Lisitsyna and Maria Melentieva (local heroes here in Karelia, Russia) were awarded that in 1941 already. Absolute Chad stories btw, love it 😍

It is Episode 32, and JT has not been heard from in roughly 3 hours of content. Silently, he sits on the couch, undividedly focused on his GameCube game. Capital has finally won. May he rest in peace.

Nobody is clicking like because it would raise the number above 420. Tank lady is GOAT, but holy shit, learning that Pavlichenko used to blast Nazi legs out before finishing them was cold af.

[@morganqorishchi8181]

I listen to this podcast in the morning while studying in the morning and my roommate was not prepared to wake up, open the door to go to the bathroom, and hear "Hakim has written down 'Semen Hitler'" without any context. He shut his eyes as if to brace for impact, opened his mouth as if to ask wtf I was listening to, decided not to, shook his head, listened to some of the follow up, and then silently left for the bathroom, looking dazed.

[@waspwrap1235]

I've always loved history, and when I found out the coolest historical stuff you can only learn once you leave curriculum behind, I came to love it even more. Great episode comrades.

[@RedScareClair]

As Yugo said it, I was literally looking to see if there was a movie about Stalin and Lenin that wasn't completely westernized. The Russian revolution is such a fascinating piece of history.

To Marx handwriting: He used German Current, which has the same letters like the Latin alphabet, but written totaly different.

I did look up Marx' handwriting.. Jesus christ, this looks like Arabic in some places, but it's most definitely German. Okay then

It makes me feel phenomenally better about my own handwriting cause mine is about as bad.

[@beccagrantham5978]

[@comradeinternet467]

There's a Marx anime, and that's great, but clearly Lenin needs a biographical anime of his own. Stalin Robbing Banks: The Anime should also be a thing.

[@tempomi760]

I would so be down for that!

[@jomorton9897]

Yeah this is really fascinating and now I wanna watch Eastern possibly soviet WW2 documentaries... (where to watch in English subs? ) Because the only credit American textbooks like to give to the Soviet Union is the siege of Stalingrad. That's like all we ever covered on the Eastern front and that's a damn shame

[@radiofreered]

I did not know until I left high school that 27m Soviet lives were lost in WWII. Only about 400,000 American lives were lost. We were taught in my school that the US won the war by nuking civilians in Japan. I’m appalled by American historical revision.

[@Tumatutuma]

You should check out a modern documentary series called The Great Patriotic War on the StarMediaEN channel. It is available with English subtitles and was made in close cooperation with Alexey Isayev, one of the best (or simply the best) historians specializing in the Soviet side of the WWII.

Marx absolutely sounds like he had ADHD. The periods of hyperfocus, the substance abuse, the obsession over certain topic, the ability to connect dots not immediately obvious. Also, the shoutout to Jenny von Westfalen was pretty cool. We need to recognise the contributions of comrade Jenny to the development of the theory of everything.

Is Yugopnik basically referring to Anglos when talking about the 'Brits' he was sitting with? The only non English folk i know that would refer to themselves as British are either posh Scots/Welsh or Scottish/North of Ireland Loyalists/Unionists.

[@buzzardman2963]

Funny enough your description of Marx sounds like a man with diagnosed autism or some other form of neuro-divergence. But I personally have had a similar lifestyle. I dream of being able to go to higher education and actually contribute to the world. IF we lived in socialism I'm pretty sure i would have become a scientist of some form or a philosopher. I find it all fascinating and spend many hours of the day reading what i can find online for free, the hardest part is deciphering what is and isn't propaganda and/or outright falsehoods.

@@Ajente02 you say that but, as a Central American, the Texan accent is easy for me to impersonate if I sing-song the English the same way I'd sing-song Spanish when trying to impersonate a Northern Mexico or Mexico D.F. accent. I've a much harder time with, I dunno, an Arkansas accent or (for Britain) an Essex accent because I lack the frame of reference to speak authentically. (I've a good ear so, since I was little, a hobby of mine became impersonating accents in a “I wonder if I could fool someone from that place someday”). From my perspective it's literally true!

[@colonel__klink7548]

Marx changing history: From a traditionalist prospective this is objectively true. However from a dialectical materialist perspective, from Marx own arguments these movements were inevitable, a product of their environment. So did he actually change history? Can a man change history if it's true that everyone is a mere reaction to their environment?
