Published 2024-06-14
1917 marked a turning point when Lenin and the Bolsheviks seized power by force in the October Revolution. The chaos led to a civil war in which Trotsky founded and brutally formed the Red Army. Stalin later establishes a cruel rule characterized by famines such as the Holodomor and massive purges. The Second World War brings new challenges as the Red Army fights against Nazi Germany and eventually takes Berlin. After the war, the Soviet Union remains a global superpower, embroiled in proxy wars and the Cold War, before suffering a humiliating defeat in the Afghan War and finally collapsing.

Up until a few weeks ago I had a Russian made Mosin Nagant made in 1937 at the Tula Arms Works. It was most definitely used in the Purges because it actually had notches carved into the rifle butt, 27 in all. I can only guess that it belonged to an NKVD soldier.

I find it amazing that this documentary is presented by Germans . I looked at their faces when they mentioned Reichstag building, the Germans that's fought in Stalingrad , and other mentions . You can see a glimpse of nervosity

How do they not bring up the Soviet/Latin American invasion of the United States in 1984? That was probably the most important event that caused the collapse of the Soviet Union and they don't even mention it once. Well, the US remembers, and we celebrate the sacrifice of those brave kids in Colorado every year.

The guy in German on the background is disturbing

During de-Stalinization, Khrushchev should have posthumously promoted Trotsky to Marshal of the Soviet Union and awarded him Hero of the Soviet Union.
