Great video and videos. I just want to say I feel the background music was too loud.

@@TheAtmosfear7 Funny fact: I don't know how your communists feel about this, but our Russian communists are ready to tear their ass out of anger when they see Solzhenitsyn's last name. And when they see the title of his book "Gulag Archipelago", they spit and threaten to tear off their hands and feet and then shoot them. When they criticize anti-communism, they immediately take up Solzhenitsyn, naming him as an argument to justify the number of people killed under Stalin's regime. Only their hand rises only on him. They forget that this is an ordinary fiction novel that is based on the author's memories. Moreover, communists do not touch scientific works that criticize communism because their brains cannot understand it.

But after the Great Patriotic War, no one wanted to fight for communism and the hypocrite Stalin returned the Russian attributes. Shoulder straps, churches, icons, titles, music. And now the farewell of the Slavs is Soviet music. Complete trash...

@@robinfoxer9702 I prefer Tri Tankista myself. Written in 1939, so no pre-Soviet influence there. Also, Suprematism and Construcivism were and are great Soviet art forms. In fact, most of my own artwork is heavily inspired by Constructivism.

[@robinfoxer9702]

@@jakekaywell5972 I see. I understand what these trends in art mean to you, but for me they are attributes of degrading mores. For you, it may be profound for me, these are ordinary drawings that are a waste of canvas and paints. Suprematism is shit because it can't compare with the pictures of the times of classicism. I am not one of those who looks at a simple square and ejaculates from this kind of screaming "deep". This is reminiscent of modern art where in museums you can pump up and exhibit this art and achievement of the 21st century. No wonder why the USSR took it. I have a sore subject about constructivism. In any Russian city there is this burp of architecture. Big and ridiculous, dust-covered, awkward monsters that were once presented in the form of supposedly modern architecture. These are just boxes that are arranged as if a baby broke a rock and made such a pile. They spoil the view of the city and this is complete tastelessness and shows the whole essence of socialism. The most terrible thing is that they stand with beautiful and beautiful buildings that are immediately visible to people built. And next to them are these Soviet freaks placed on every square kilometer by the Soviet government so that the collective farmers do not die from cold and hunger. Compare Kuskovo Manor and any constructivist shit. If you choose the latter, then you and I are not on the way.

[@jakekaywell5972]

@@robinfoxer9702 I disagree. You see, my family came from the Polish and Hungarian People's Republics and have generally fond memories of the USSR as it represented a big boost in culture, stability, and technology. Suprematism as an art form is not to my taste, but I see it does have artistic merit. Constructivism, however, is my single most favorite art style as you likely can guess by now (I even have a tattoo of El Lissitzky's Red Wedge, truly a seminal piece). It represents the bright, modern future in store for all of us, free of our baser instincts of greed and avarice. I also enjoy the challenge of conveying messages through simple geometric shapes, so I would say my own work is more creative than most traditional styles. Granted, they took a lot of skill to make and are impressive for their times, but largely outmoded by photography. Regarding architecture, I'm assuming you're talking about the Khrushchyovka apartment blocs. I agree with you there. Just efficient housing and nothing else. However, the prior Stalinka apartments and actual Brutalist buildings are masterpieces in their own rights. Take a look at the Russian State Scientific Center for Robotics and Technical Cybernetics for a better idea of what I'm talking about. Beautiful simplicity and elegance!

[@robinfoxer9702]

@@jakekaywell5972 I was away for a long time due to some reasons, but I will continue. Everything is clear. Your family is from the PNR and VNR, but you probably haven't been to the USSR. My family has lived in the USSR all their life. I understand that constructivism is cool for you, but for Russia it is a relic of the past. You can practice it on your own land, but it is not necessary for Russia. The pseudo-modernity of constructivism creates the opposite effect, showing the collective farm level of construction and complete tastelessness. By architecture, I perceive all Soviet constructivism. I don't even consider Khrushchevki as architecture, it's a shame. In a word, shame. A small cattle stall. Stalinki is the best of the worst for me. I was near the Russian State Scientific Center of Robotics and Robotics when I drove by car. This dirty stake could be seen from afar. He contrasts especially amusingly next to the Brezhnevs who complement this gray pseudo-modern style. I had a feeling only in the form of longing. All. The only building in the form of constructivism that does not cause me a gag reflex is the building of the Druzhba boarding house in Yalta. He looks more beautiful than his dirty brethren. Especially often these masterpieces were built on the site of churches and buildings blown up by the Communists. And these demolished buildings were really beautiful and were a work of Russian architecture. This adds even more injustice.

The main goal of the allies was keeping Russia in world war one (this being the reason they didn't care about the February Revolution).

That's how power struggles work throughout history, in order to make an omelette you gotta break a few eggs. Leaving ANY one of the Romanov family members alive shall be a "living" threat to the revolution, therefore they all (down to the last child) "deserved" to die in the eyes of the revolutionaries. Ironically, the Russian people suffered harshly under their new socialist "overlords" if not worse than under the authoritarian rule of the Romanovs but not by much. Most Russians (and generally anyone who values stability & the illusion of security over freedom) are accustomed to authoritarian governments. If the decline of the West and stagnation of the East has anything to prove, is that NO system is perfect. Freedom and equality are diametrically opposed to each other, and there shall always be a "ruling class" who shall stifle "social mobility" in order to keep themselves in power NO MATTER HOW BENEVOLENT THEY ARE, and the people are DUMB peons that NEVER learn from history and shall always be a tool for the "powers that'd be" to gain more power and stay in power. It is the more "effective" "powers that'd be" that mastered social engineering and use the "mob" for their own sole political gain.

The Cossacks didn't just randomly rebel again, the Soviets launched a coordinated genocide against them which killed 90'000 in cold blood but was unsurprisingly a terrible idea as the Cossacks unique social organisation made them capable of raising regiments of armed and experienced men at a moment's notice. "Their father, a priest and social activist who was very popular among the Cossacks, succeeded in escaping arrest and hid himself. The Bolsheviks gave him two hours at the end of which they would shoot his children if he did not appear. The priest appeared within the time, but only to see the corpses of his two children who had already been shot. He himself was killed on the exact same spot"- quoted in The Cossacks by Shane O'Rourke.

"Resistance to the power of the Bolsheviks in Russia began immediately after the October Revolution on November 7, 1917 and did not stop for 74 years. Overcoming the turmoil in the minds and discord that prevails in Russia today requires, first of all, an honest knowledge of our recent past. We must not forget either the crimes committed by the communists, or the exploits of those who resisted their power over Russia. Without renunciation of the evil of the Soviet era, without relying on the moral strength of those whom this evil did not break, one cannot become a citizen of New Russia - a patriot and a bearer of national identity". - B.S. Pushkarev in "The Communist Regime and Popular Resistance in Russia, 1917-1991".

[@СаняСкелет-о2ш]

Yes, that's right. The Bolsheviks are demons, and everyone who resisted them is evil. Do you know about the white terror? Do you know about the Kulak terror? Do you know about the ROVS? The Bolsheviks, unlike the Tsarists, did not turn the country into a colony.

[@robinfoxer9702]

@@hi-tech_soldier2558 No. Read the history and find out that Russia at the beginning of the 20th century had a huge potential that the Russian emperors laid in it. If it were not for the Bolsheviks, Russia would have achieved great results. Russia was ranked 1st in the world in terms of industrial growth, the population was growing, the number of literate people was growing, science was developing, it was during the tsarist period that Russian culture flourished and much more. The Bolsheviks perverted this and turned Russia into a terrible something.

The russian orthodox church is special. Kyril the patriarch is a former KGB informant. And in the Sovietunion it was not like east Germany where large parts of the population worked for the Stasi.

Horror. If the Romanovs are tyrants, then I'm afraid to imagine who the Bolsheviks are. They shed more Russian blood than all the Romanovs. The Romanovs were the face of the Russian people. The Communists turned Russians into villains that the whole world is afraid of. And I am ashamed of what Lenin and Stalin did to my motherland.

[@kekeke6224]

Way we have been taught when I was a kid, there was a very specific reason for "odd" behaviour of Bolshevik's goverment during negations with germans. The peace negotiations with germans were led by Trotsky from the side of Bolsheviks, and they suspected germans to be losing the war any moment. This is why the Provisional Government led by Kerensky kept fighting Germany despite the war being unpopular and being the cause for the unrest in the first place. Bolsheviks understood that they must fulfill the PEACE promise to the russian people in order to survive as political motion, and Trotsky tried to reach both goals with a single shot by trying to buy as much time as possible being obscure and indecisive about the peace terms. Then germans realized whats going on and started a heavy pressure, and Lenin insisted on piece at any cost.
