Great October saved Russia from destruction
Every year on November 7 in Russia is a memorable date - the Day of the October Revolution 1917 of the year. Until 1991, 7 November was the main holiday of the USSR and was called the Day of the Great October Socialist Revolution.
Throughout the existence of the Soviet Union (celebrated since 1918), November 7 was a “red calendar day”, that is, a public holiday. On this day, demonstrations of workers and military parades were held on Red Square in Moscow, as well as in the regional and regional centers of the USSR. The last military parade on Red Square in Moscow to commemorate the anniversary of the October Revolution was held in 1990 year. The celebration of November 7 as one of the most important public holidays was preserved in Russia until 2004, while from 1992, only one day was considered as a holiday - November 7 (in the USSR November was considered a holiday).
In 1995, the Day of Military Glory was established - the Day of the military parade on Red Square in Moscow to mark the twenty-fourth anniversary of the Great October Socialist Revolution (1941 year). In 1996, by decree of the President of the Russian Federation “in order to mitigate opposition and reconciliation of various segments of Russian society” was renamed the Day of Accord and Reconciliation. Since 2005, due to the establishment of a new national holiday, National Unity Day, November 7 has ceased to be a day off.
November 7 ceased to be a holiday, but was included in the list of memorable dates. Indeed, this day cannot be crossed out. stories Russia, since the uprising in Petrograd 25 — October 26 (7 — 8 November in a new style) led not only to the overthrow of the bourgeois Provisional Government, but also predetermined all further development of Russia, had a huge impact on world history.
It is worth noting that the attempt to obscure the Day of the October Revolution with the help of the Day of National Unity failed. Popular unity in the Russian Federation is absent. Again there is a split into “white” and “red” ones. It is impossible to unite an insignificant rich stratum, which has appropriated the fruits of the hard work of several generations and the masses, who are largely disadvantaged, whose prospects in the context of the global and domestic crisis (de facto already in conditions of world war) are very bleak.
In 1991-1993 a counter-revolution took place in Russia, a bourgeois, liberal-capitalist revolution triumphed. The heirs of the “februaryists” of the 1917 model of the year won: liberals, Westerners, capitalists and financial speculators. Therefore, it is impossible to unite oligarchs, financial speculators and ordinary people who advocate social justice. We are frankly year after year robbed, and even during the crisis, when the majority of the people are getting poorer, millionaires and billionaires continue to grow rich and their overpowering (feast during the plague) challenge the population. The speculations on the feast of May 9 and November 4 cannot gloss over this reality. During the parade, Lenin's mausoleum is always shyly covered with plywood structures. It is obvious that the current authorities and oligarchs do not want anything to do with Lenin and Stalin, with a socialist, people-oriented state.
Not surprisingly, the war of monuments began in Russia. The pro-Western part of the ruling and financial-economic elite is trying to rewrite history by itself, creating the myth of the “prosperous” Romanov empire with the “noble elite” and the hardworking, law-abiding Orthodox people, who were destroyed by the “bloody Bolsheviks”. Allegedly, the Bolsheviks created an "evil empire", "enslaved the people", destroyed churches and palaces, cut off Russia from European civilization, "distorting its path."
This part of the Russian elite is trying to repeat in Russia the project "Petersburg-2", that is, in every way glorifies the Romanov empire, opposing it to the "bloody" Red Empire (USSR). To this end, active work is underway in the fields of culture, art, cinema, architecture, etc. At the same time, the “new nobles”, monarchists and Western liberals are no longer holding back. Apparently, they believe that enough time has passed and the generation of the "scoop" is a thing of the past, and pensioners do not pose a threat due to the lack of energy and financial dependence.
Hence the scandal behind the scandal. In St. Petersburg, a commemorative plaque is set up for General Mannerheim, a former Tsarist general who became the leader of independent Finland, who claimed vast Russian lands and three times began the war with Soviet Russia (1918-1920, 1921-1922 and 1941-1944), became Hitler's ally and the enemy of the USSR during the Great Patriotic War. Recently it became known that the authorities of St. Petersburg intend to install a memorial plaque to Admiral Kolchak, who was officially recognized as a war criminal. The White Admiral acted in the interests of his Western masters (England and the USA), and when he was no longer needed, he was simply surrendered. In Krasnodar, they again began to talk about perpetuating the memory of the hanged Nazi accomplice, Ataman Krasnov. In Kerch, the first monument to the “black baron” to Peter Wrangel was installed in Russia, which even within the framework of the White movement had a very mixed reputation.
State Duma deputy on the eve of November 4 N. Poklonskaya arranged a scandal, putting in one row "fiends" of Lenin, Mao Zedong and Hitler. True, then gave way somewhat, notifying: “We have freedom of speech. This is my personal opinion, my civil position. I don’t have any public opinion here. ”
This is the second major scandal with her name. Poklonskaya to the action "Immortal Regiment", which is dedicated to the victory of the soldiers of the Soviet Red Army over the Wehrmacht, came out with the icon of Nicholas II, clearly bringing discord in the holy feast.
It is also worth noting that 2016 appeared on the screens of a whole series of films about Tsarist Russia - “about the crunch of the French roll”. Like, everything was fine, but everything was trampled by its shoemakers "lumpen-proletariat", "damned Bolsheviks", who forced the king to abdicate the throne and destroyed the empire. In particular, the film "Hero". In Russia, a new wave of “white revenge” is taking place (the first was in the 1990s). The White Heritage Cultural Center will appear in Novospassky Monastery in Moscow in 2017. From Rostov-on-Don, the news came that in the house where Wrangel lived, a museum of the general would open.
The Yeltsin Center is actively working on this topic, pursuing a policy of de-Sovietisation and reaching the rehabilitation of Vlasovism. So, one of the leaders of EC, Nikita Sokolov, proposed to rehabilitate the Vlasovites. Sokolov said that it was necessary to go beyond the narrow understanding of the repressed. We need to expand it. He said that an important public issue is the memory of groups of people “who have not been rehabilitated and created real fighting groups to oppose the Soviet government,” including the Vlasovites. Sokolov himself is “not sure” that modern Russia should be considered their enemies of the people.
Thus, after the 2015 year, when on the anniversary of the Great Victory, the media and the domineering elite recalled the positive role of the USSR and even Stalin, a turn towards a “white revenge” again emerged. The sympathies of a large part of the domineering top and the pro-Western near-power environment are clearly on the side of the white revenge-seekers and their ideas, since they protect the foundations of large property. It is impossible to unite Russian society, since the current liberal-pro-Western, capitalist system does not meet the interests of the Russian people and other peoples of our civilization.
October revolution saved Russia
After 1991, Russia was actively distributed the myth that "the Bolsheviks destroyed autocracy and the Russian empire." However, this is a hoax. First, after the defeat of the 1905-1907 revolution. various socialist parties were crushed, their organizations destroyed or went deep underground, leaders and activists fled to emigration or were in prisons, were in exile. Lenin said pessimistically, during his life there would be no revolution in Russia. In general, the Bolshevik Party was a small, unpopular organization that was not able to cause serious unrest in the Russian Empire.
Only the February revolution opened up broad prospects for the socialists: it was possible to come to Russia, many leaders and activists were pardoned; the work of law enforcement agencies was disrupted, agitation and propaganda could be strengthened, old structures could be recreated and new structures created; spontaneous ferment among the people intensified, radical ideas became increasingly popular among workers, peasants and soldiers tired of war and recruits who did not want to go to the front and die “for the Dardanelles”, which for ordinary people had no meaning at all. The mediocre policy of the liberal-bourgeois Provisional Government did not restore order, but only increased chaos and unrest in society. All this was used by the radicals (socialists, national separatists) for their own purposes.
Secondly, the spontaneous unrest of workers, recruit soldiers, anarchist sailors and peasants who were dissatisfied with their position and growing disasters during the war could have been suppressed by any organized state power, including the Romanov empire. For this there was enough strength - Cossacks, loyal units, guards, fired front units. Only political will was needed. During the Civil War, both whites and reds encountered this problem and, in general, solved it through repression and terror, and partial concessions. A “counter-elite” was needed, which would oppose the autocracy, it was the “fevralists” - bourgeois revolutionaries.
Third, autocracy and empire destroyed in February-March 1917, the so-called. The Februaryists are the rich, prosperous and privileged elite of the Russian Empire. Not the commissars and Red Guards forced Tsar Nicholas II to renounce, but the domineering elite, large owners, masons of high degrees of initiation, ministers, Duma leaders and generals.
Discontent in society up to significant spontaneous unrest was raised by “noble”, educated and well-to-do people. During the war, the rear was disorganized, food supplies to major cities were disrupted, corruption and large-scale theft flourished, the lives of ordinary people worsened significantly, which caused a sharp discontent of the population and the beginning of spontaneous unrest. And when the riots in February 1917 took a large scale, requiring strong-willed decisions, sending the faithful troops to the imperial capital, political and social, industrial-financial, military and bureaucratic elite (many of these people were masons at the same time, that is, submitted to the masters of the West) pressure on the king. Nicholas II did not dare to "swim against the stream," to go to the faithful troops and generals, and try to eliminate with a little blood the future seas of blood. He chose to recant.
In this way, The power was taken over by the feudalists: industrial, commercial, financial capital, degenerated aristocracy, grand dukes, generals, top officials, Duma leaders, liberal politicians and representatives of the pro-Western intelligentsia. They wanted to send Russia along the western path of development, oriented on the constitutional monarchy on the model of England or Republican France. They had money, power, but there was no real power, control. They wanted market domination and democratic freedoms, without restraining the fetters of autocracy. In addition, Russian Westerners, the Freemasons simply liked to live in Europe (for many years they lived in it) - so “sweet and civilized.”
However, triumphantly crushing autocracy, the feudalist-Westerners, instead of winning the “democracy” and the full power of capital, got the catastrophe of “historical Russia”. Old Russia, in which they flourished as a whole, collapsed. But to create “sweet” France or England on the spot of Russia did not work out. The matrix of the Western-type society did not take root in Russian civilization. At the same time, the supports that allowed the Romanov empires to exist were destroyed: the cadre army was killed in the battles of the First World War, the autocracy was dared, the Cossacks began to recall self-government. The mediocre, self-destructive policies of the liberal, bourgeois Provisional Government did not lead to prosperity, but destroyed the remaining braces that restrain the unity of the Russian state.
It must be remembered that by the fall of 1917, the liberal-bourgeois Provisional Government brought Russian civilization and statehood to the brink of disaster. Not only national margins, but also regions within Russia themselves, such as Cossack autonomies, refused from the Russian state. The meager number of nationalists claimed power in Kiev and the Ukraine to the Ukraine. An autonomous government appeared in Siberia.
The interim government could not stop the collapse of the armed forces. Order number 1 on the "democratization" of the army led to even greater decomposition and decline of the armed forces. As a result, the armed forces collapsed long before the Bolshevik coup and could not continue fighting. The army and navy from the pillars of order themselves have become sources of distemper and anarchy. The soldiers deserted thousands, carried off weapon (including machine guns and guns!). The front was falling apart, and the German army was no one to stop. Russia could not fulfill its duty to the Allies on the Entente.
Finance and economics were disorganized, a single economic space was falling apart. Serious problems began with the supply of cities, harbingers of hunger. The government, during the Russian Empire, began to conduct surplus transactions (again, the Bolsheviks were then accused of them). The amnesty freed revolutionaries and bandits, a surge of revolutionary activity and a criminal revolution began with the complete disintegration of the old police.
The peasants saw that there was no power! For the peasants, the authorities were the anointed of God - the king, and his support - the army. They began to self-seize the land, "black repartition" and "revenge": manor estates burned hundreds. Thus, in Russia, a new peasant war began, even before October and the White and Red wars.
External open enemies and former "partners" began the division and seizure of Russian territories. At the same time, England, France and the United States claimed the most tasty morsels. In particular, the Americans with the help of Czechoslovak bayonets planned to stake out virtually all of Siberia and the Far East. The interim government, instead of proposing a goal, a program, and rescue a power by active and decisive action, postponed the decision of fundamental issues until the Constituent Assembly was convened.
The country was covered by a wave of chaos, both controlled and spontaneous. Autocracy, which was the core of the empire, was crushed by the inner “fifth column”. In exchange, the inhabitants of the empire received "freedom." People felt free from all taxes, duties and laws. The Provisional Government, whose policies were determined by leaders of the liberal and left-wing sense, could not establish a viable order, moreover, their actions deepened chaos. It turned out that the figures oriented to the west (most of them were masons who obeyed the “elder brothers” from the West) continued to destroy Russia. In words, everything was beautiful and smooth, in fact - they were destroyers or “impotent” people who could only speak beautifully.
Thus, the policy of the Februaryists led to a complete catastrophe. Liberal Democratic Petrograd de facto lost control of the country. Russia actually fell. Russia should not have remained on the world map. The masters of the West struck out Russia and the Russians from world history.
The further power of the Februaryists led to the collapse of Russia into specific princedoms and “independent republics” with a mass of “independent” presidents, hetmans, chieftains, khans and princes with their speaking-speaking parliaments, micro-armies and the administrative apparatus. All of these “states” inevitably fell under the authority of external forces — Britain, France, the USA, Japan, Turkey, etc. At the same time, former parts of the empire dug in on Russian lands. Finnish nationalists planned to create the Great Finland at the expense of the Russian lands (Karelia, the Kola Peninsula, etc.), and if successful, seize the lands of Northern Russia right up to the Urals. The Poles dreamed of a new Rzecz Pospolita from sea to sea, with the inclusion of Lithuania, White and Little Russia. Britain, France, the United States and Japan planned the occupation of strategic points and communications. In the sphere of influence of England included the Russian North, the Caucasus. Turkey planned to occupy the Caucasus, Japan - the whole of Sakhalin, the Far East, Russian possessions in China. The United States, with the help of Czechoslovak bayonets, planned to occupy the Great Siberian Way, the main communication from the European part of Russia to the Pacific Ocean, which allowed controlling most of Russia — the Far East, Siberia and the North (together with England). Russian civilization and the people were threatened with complete destruction and disappearance from history.
However, there was a force that could take power and offer the people a viable project. These were the Bolsheviks. Until the summer of 1917, they were not considered a serious political force, yielding in popularity and strength to the cadets and the Social Revolutionaries. But by the fall of 1917, their popularity had grown. Their program was clear and understandable to the masses. The power in this period could take virtually any force that showed political will. This force became the Bolsheviks.
In August 1917, the Bolsheviks headed for an armed uprising and a socialist revolution. This happened at the VI Congress of the RSDLP (b). However, then the Bolshevik party was actually in the underground. The most revolutionary regiments of the Petrograd garrison were disbanded, and workers sympathizing with the Bolsheviks were disarmed. The opportunity to recreate armed structures appeared only during the Kornilov revolt. The plan for the uprising in the capital had to be postponed. Only 10 (23) October 1917. The Central Committee adopted a resolution on the preparation of an uprising.
12 (25) October 1917 was created by the Petrograd Military Revolutionary Committee to protect the revolution from the "openly preparing attack of the military and civilian Kornilovists". Not only the Bolsheviks, but also some left-wing Social Revolutionaries and anarchists entered the WRC. In fact, this body and coordinated the preparation of an armed uprising. With the help of the WRC, the Bolsheviks established close ties with the soldiers' committees of the Petrograd garrison formations. In fact, the left forces restored the dual power in the city and began to establish their control over the military forces. October 21 held a meeting of representatives of the regiments of the garrison, who recognized the Petrograd Soviet as the sole legitimate authority in the city. From that moment on, the Military Revolutionary Committee began to appoint its commissars to military units, replacing commissars of the Provisional Government.
On the night of October 22, the Military Command requested the headquarters of the Petrograd Military District to recognize the authority of their commissars, and 22 declared its subordination to the garrison. October 23 The WRC obtained the right to create an advisory body at the headquarters of the Petrograd district. By October 24, the WRC appointed his commissars to the troops, as well as to arsenals, armories, railway stations and factories. In fact, by the beginning of the uprising, left forces had established military control over the capital. The Provisional Government was incapacitated and could not respond decisively.
therefore there were no serious clashes and much blood, the Bolsheviks simply took power. The guards of the Provisional Government and the units loyal to them almost everywhere surrendered and went home. No one wanted to spill their blood for temporary workers. From October 24, the units of the Petrograd Military Revolutionary Committee occupied all the key points of the city. The armed men simply occupied the key objects of the capital, and all this was done without a single shot, calmly and methodically. When the head of the Provisional Government, Kerensky ordered the arrest of members of the WRC, there was no one to execute the order of arrest. The interim government almost without a fight passed the country, although even before the revolution it had every opportunity to deal with active members of the Bolshevik Party. The fact that they have not even done anything to protect their last stronghold, the Winter Palace, says about the complete lack of talent and incapacity of the temporary worker: there were no combat-ready units; neither ammunition nor food were prepared. The authorities did not promptly pull up the loyal troops.
By the morning of October 25 (November 7) the Interim Government in Petrograd had only the Winter Palace. Soon they occupied him. The guards of the palace went home for the most part. The whole assault consisted in a flaccid exchange of fire. Its scale can be understood by casualties: only a few people died. At 2 in the morning of October 26 (November 8), members of the Provisional Government were arrested. Kerensky himself escaped in advance, drove away accompanied by the car of the American ambassador under the American flag (he was saved by overseas patrons).
Thus, the Bolsheviks won virtually the “shadow” of the government. Later, a myth was created about the brilliant operation and the “heroic struggle” against the bourgeois. The main reason for the victory was the complete lack of talent and passivity of the Provisional Government. Almost all liberal figures could only speak beautifully. Resolute and strong-willed Kornilov, who was trying to establish at least some order, had already been eliminated. If the decisive dictator of the Suvorov or Napoleon type, with several attack units from the front, were in place of Kerensky, he would easily have dispersed the decomposed parts of the Petrograd garrison and the red partisan units.
In the evening of October 25, the II All-Russian Congress of Soviets opened in Smolny, which proclaimed the transfer of all power to the Soviets. October 26 The Council adopted a Decree on Peace. All belligerent countries were asked to begin negotiations on the conclusion of a universal democratic peace. The decree on the land passed landowner land to the peasants. All bowels, forests and waters nationalized. At the same time, a government was formed - the Council of People's Commissars headed by Vladimir Lenin.
Simultaneously with the uprising in Petrograd, the Moscow Council Revolutionary Committee took key points of the city under its control. It didn't go so smoothly here. The Public Security Committee under the chairman of the city duma Vadim Rudnev, with the support of the junkers and Cossacks, began military actions against the Council. The fighting continued until November 3, when the Public Security Committee capitulated. In general, the Soviet government was established in the country easily and without much blood. The revolution was immediately supported in the Central Industrial District, where local Soviets of Workers' Deputies were actually in control of the situation. In the Baltics and Byelorussia, Soviet power was established in October - November 1917 of the year, and in the Central Chernozem region, the Volga region and Siberia - until the end of January 1918 of the year. These events are called "the triumphal march of the Soviet government." The process of the predominantly peaceful establishment of Soviet power throughout Russia was yet another proof of the complete degradation of the Provisional Government and the need to rescue the country with active and program-like force.
Subsequent events confirmed the correctness of the Bolsheviks. Russia was on the verge of death. The old project was destroyed, and only a new project could save Russia. He was given and the Bolsheviks. And the “old Russia” was destroyed by the Februaryists — the rich, prosperous and privileged elite of the Russian Empire, the liberal intelligentsia, who hated the “prison of nations”. In general, most of the "elite" of Russia did the tsar with their own hands and destroyed the empire, dreaming of building a "sweet Europe" in Russia.
The Bolsheviks did not save the "old Russia", it was doomed and fought in agony. They offered people to create a new reality, a new civilization (Soviet). A fair society of creation and ministry, where there will be no classes that parasitize people. It was the Bolsheviks who showed such basic values for the Russian “matrix” as justice, the primacy of truth over the law, the spiritual principle over the material, the general over the particular. Their victory led to the construction of a separate “Russian socialism”. The Bolsheviks had all three necessary elements for the formation of a new project: image of a bright future; political will and energy, faith in one's victory (overpassionality); and iron organization and discipline.
The image of the future came to the liking of the greater part of the common people, since communism was inherent in Russian civilization, the people. Not for nothing, long before the revolution, many Russian, Christian-minded thinkers were at the same time supporters of socialism. Only socialism could be an alternative to parasitic capitalism (and at present, to a non-slave, neo-feudal system). Communism stood on the basis of creation, labor. All this corresponded to the "matrix" of Russian civilization. The Bolsheviks had the political will, energy and faith. They had an organization.
It is clear that not everything was smooth with the Bolsheviks. They had to act tough, even cruel. A large part of the top revolutionaries were internationalists (supporters of Trotsky and Sverdlov). Many of them were agents of Western influence, destroyers who dreamed of destroying the “old world”. They were supposed to launch a “second wave” to destroy the Russian super-ethnos (Russian civilization). The “first wave” was feblists-masons. They viewed Russia as a sacrifice, a feeding trough, a base for the world revolution, which would lead to the establishment of a New World Order, the owners of which would be the “world behind the scenes”. "World backstage" started a world war and organized a revolution in Russia. The owners of the United States and England planned to establish a global world order - a caste, non-slave society. Marxism acted in their interests. Their weapons were revolutionary internationalists, Trotskyists.
However, our enemies miscalculated. The Trotskyist internationalists, who were the “fifth column” of the West in Russia and who were to transfer power in Central Russia to their masters, were opposed by the real Bolsheviks (the Russian Communists). For the most part they were ordinary people without a “double bottom”, they fervently believed in a “bright future” without exploiting the working class, without parasitic superstructures over the people. A popular leader appeared in the party itself, who was clean before the people and was not dirty with communications with the special services and "non-governmental" structures of the West. It was Joseph Stalin.
Thus, with the October Revolution and the victory of the Bolsheviks, the revival of the Russian civilization and empire began, but through the Soviet project, in the image of the Soviet Union. The people supported the project of the Bolsheviks, their program. Therefore, the whites were defeated, as were the nationalists and outright bandits - "green". The Anglo-American, French and Japanese invaders fled because they could not resist the whole people. The merciless struggle in the party itself, the struggle between Western agents — Sverdlovsk, Trotskyists, internationalists and real Russian communists, Bolshevik-Stalinists, led by Joseph Stalin — was the first to intercept management and remove the most odious figures from the Soviet Olympus, like Trotsky. And then, from 1924 to 1939, to the almost complete defeat of Western agents in Russia (represented by all kinds of Kamenev, Zinoviev, Bukharin, etc.)
Modern liberals, monarchists are trying to convince the people that October has become the "curse of Russia." They say that Russia has again turned away from Europe, and the history of the USSR is a complete disaster. In the reality The Bolsheviks turned out to be the only force that, after the death of the “old Russia” - the project of the Romanovs, tried to save the state and the people, create a new reality. They created a project that will preserve the best that was in the past, and at the same time will be a breakthrough into the future, into a different, just, solar reality, without slavery and oppression, parasitism and obscurantism. If not for the Bolsheviks, the Russian civilization would simply have perished.
