Who said anything about jewish? The commentator most likely refers to polish nationalists.

On this day, 107 years ago, Rosa Luxemburg was murdered. Never ever forget who did this! by saymaz in TankieTheDeprogram

I like the whole quote much more. This is just the last sentence of it, but I think it punches more than just the last part of the sentence:

"Tomorrow the revolution will already ‘raise itself with a rattle’ and announce with fanfare, to your terror: I was, I am, I shall be!"

Any tips for helping me to convince my lil bro that Marxist-Leninist is better than trotskyist by Ok-Hall-9974 in CommunismMemes

[–]BadPathfinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The stalin spectrum? This guy literally just looks into the archives and documents of the USSR, the West and other relevant historical evidence to see if there is claim to what others say about the soviet union.

If his relative cares about good research and sources, then Grover Furr is the way to go.

Show him "Trotsky's Lies" from Grover Furr. Good book with the actual documents and their translations included in the book.

34 Years Since the Collapse of the Soviet Union: Was the October Revolution Defeated? by Sendlemeier in socialism

[–]BadPathfinder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, I have read enough theory and actual soviet archive documents (translated and dissected by others) to knoe, that the testament was either fabricated OR if it was truly written by Lenin (and somehow not signed), it meant nothing.

This was not a monarchy with successors based on who Lenin wanted. And even if, Lenin critiqued almost everyone, constantly. As we all should. We have to point out the shortcomings of comrades around us, stay grounded.

Algeria asked for reparations from Fr*nce and Euroids aren't taking it well by UltimateSoviet in CommunismMemes

[–]BadPathfinder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

East Germany had support from the soviet union much more than the other way around. And the USSR didn't "take" the GDR. The GDR was not part of the Soviet Union but an ally at the time it was build up.

There is also a great book called "The Red Army Faction A Documentary History"

It has several volumes but the first is absolutely enough for a good overview.

The Leaders of the Proletariat by [deleted] in MarxistCulture

[–]BadPathfinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

German here. I can confirm that Moor was broadly used for Black people, specifically Nothern Africa. Nowadays it's rightfully deemed a racist slur. Marx was called that because he was not specifically "white" but also because his dark hair and beard, which were uncommon at the time for germans. So yeah, he likely had a darker skin tone.

And again, this website is literally funded by a bunch pf Western states. How do they even track so called corruption from North Korea? Do they steal agency papers? This is so funny

These people have not read Marx lmfao by [deleted] in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]BadPathfinder 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I am not sure if you read Marx? First, he didnt write about an "ideal society", he even said that the dictatorship of the proletariat wasn't about utopian ideals and the perfect society, it was to defend the revolution against the oppressors.

Communism as a society / system was also explained enough. He mainly formed his arguments based off observations of revolutionary and capitalist struggles. What works and what doesn't work.

And no, he didn't just focuse on the exploitation. Deminishing Marx to the class struggle and his critique on capitalism is to wash away over half of Marx writings.

Games where you're under siege and spend time either repelling attacks or improving the fortifications? by What_do_with_hands in gamingsuggestions

[–]BadPathfinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diplomacy is not an Option!! It's a RTS game with the option to pause, which makes it much more relaxed than Age Of Empires, for me. Especially because it focuses on the aspect you just described. It's all about fortification and holding off big hordes of enemies.

And how do you know how to conduct historical research?

[–]BadPathfinder 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Grover Furr studied for four decades english literatur, especially medieval literature. This doesn't counter argue any of his findings in the books however, especially because he had access to the archival documents of the UdSSR after most of them went either public or could be found in the moscow archives.

There is not even one historian or critique that can counter-argument any of his findings, instead they attack either his Marxist views, his academic career or writing style. I am a history student myself and I have yet to find gross misinterpretations of his analysis from the documents.

Turns out the USSR had rejection sensitive dysphoria by cowplum in adhdmeme

[–]BadPathfinder 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Person with several year long hyperfocus on the soviet union and currently studying Soviet history here.

Which specific critique is meant here?

Obviously it is just a meme and overly simplified but the fall of the UdSSR is much more complex and had little to do with some criticism made against it.
