Ideology of Stalin's Victory

174

The holiday of May 9 is approaching - the 76th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War.

A decisive contribution to the Victory was made by the Red Army, armed with the advanced military equipment of the time. But this Victory would have been impossible without the appropriate ideological support, without the formulation of value ideological meanings that armed the soldiers of the Red Army (soldiers, commanders and political workers) with confidence in the rightness of their cause.

Outstanding Soviet writers and poets - Konstantin Simonov, Alexey Tolstoy, Ilya Erenburg, Alexander Tvardovsky and many others - made a huge contribution to the ideology of Victory.



Spirit of Victory


But the most important principles of the new ideological approach in the conditions of the great war that began were formulated in the speeches and addresses of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, Chairman of the State Defense Committee, Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars and General Secretary of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks Joseph Stalin.

All these provisions, most important for understanding the ideological work, are contained in J. Stalin's collection "On the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union", published in 1947. This collection includes texts that are critical to understanding these new approaches. Starting with a radio speech on July 3, 1941, famous for the words "brothers and sisters, I am addressing you, my friends," and ending with the famous toast "To the Russian people."

Already in his first speech on July 3, 1941, Stalin explained in detail to society - was it not a mistake to conclude a non-aggression pact with Hitler's Germany, since Germany violated it and treacherously attacked our country. Stalin explains that by concluding a non-aggression pact with Germany, we ensured peace for our country for a year and a half and the possibility of preparing our forces to repulse if Germany would risk attacking our country, contrary to the pact. Recognizing that Germany, having made a treacherous attack, achieved a tactical advantage at the front, but she, the leader believed, "lost politically, exposing herself in the eyes of the whole world as a bloody aggressor."

Describing the nature of the outbreak of war, Stalin notes:

"It is about the life and death of the Soviet state, about the life and death of the peoples of the USSR, the destruction of the statehood of the peoples of the USSR."

He formulates not only the main tactical tasks of fighting the enemy in order to bleed and wear him out, leaving him with a destroyed infrastructure, but also defines the strategic goals of the struggle, calling the war - Patriotic!

“The goal of this nationwide Patriotic war against the fascist oppressors is not only to eliminate the danger hanging over our country, but also to help all the peoples of Europe groaning under the yoke of German fascism. Our war for the freedom of our Fatherland will merge with the struggle of the peoples of Europe and America for independence, for democratic freedoms ",

- proclaims Stalin.

Please note that the communist leader is not talking about the class struggle, the world proletarian revolution, support for the revolutionary struggle of workers in other countries, or the struggle against capitalism, as one might expect. The task was formulated as follows:

"The idea of ​​defending our Fatherland ... should and does give rise to heroes in our army, cementing the Red Army."

There was another important question, which was answered in detail by the leader. With whom is the USSR waging war, what political ideology and system of values ​​does Hitlerite Germany profess, and what order does she want to establish? In his report dedicated to the 24th anniversary of the October Revolution, Stalin explains in detail who the German National Socialists are, why they call themselves that, and who they really are. In this speech, Stalin gives his definition of the ideology of German Nazism - Hitlerism and the social nature of the NSDAP.

Stalin argues that Hitler's party cannot be considered not only socialist, but also nationalist. It could have been nationalist while the Nazis were collecting German lands, but after the German fascists enslaved many European nations and began to seek world domination, the Hitlerite party turned into an imperialist party, expressing the interests of German bankers and barons. Proving why the Hitlerite party is a reactionary political force that deprived the working class and peoples of Europe of elementary democratic freedoms, Stalin did not limit himself to this, but acts as a defender of the liberal political systems of his allies.

Stalin refutes the most important thesis of Goebbels 'propaganda about the social nature of the bourgeois democratic regimes in Great Britain and the United States as plutocratic, noting that in these countries there are workers' parties, trade unions, there is a parliament, and in Germany these institutions are absent. He recalls that "the Nazis just as willingly organize medieval Jewish pogroms as the tsarist regime arranged for them."

And here is the definition that Stalin gives NASDAP.

"The Hitlerite Party is the party of enemies of democratic freedoms, medieval reaction and Black Hundred pogroms."

Stalin also ridiculed the attempts of Goebbels' propaganda to compare Adolf Hitler to Napoleon Bonaparte. Firstly, he recalled the fate of Napoleon and his campaign of conquest against Russia, and secondly, he drew attention to the fact that the French emperor represented the forces of social progress for his time, while Hitler personifies the forces of extreme reaction and obscurantism.

Winner Code


An important element of the ideology of Victory was patriotic rhetoric and an appeal to the iconic figures of the Russian stories... In the same report, Stalin utters the historic words:

"And these people, devoid of conscience and honor, people with animal morality have the audacity to call for the destruction of the great Russian nation, the nation of Plekhanov and Lenin, Belinsky and Chernyshevsky, Pushkin and Tolstoy, Sechenov and Pavlov, Repin and Surikov, Suvorov and Kutuzov."

Often they try to present Stalin's policy during the war years as a rejection of communist ideology, Marxism and Leninism. This is an erroneous point of view, where the wish of these authors is passed off as reality.

Although the Stalinist interpretation of the "dictatorship of the proletariat" had its own characteristics, as well as the authoritarian system of government created by the leader. However, we can rightfully speak about the restoration, within the framework of the official ideology, of the historical continuity of all Russian history. And this new ideological policy, which was undoubtedly initiated by Stalin, did not begin at all with the outbreak of war, as they sometimes write, but back in the second half of the 30s, when iconic patriotic films about the commander Suvorov, Alexander Nevsky, Minin and Pozharsky. These important historical figures were actually rehabilitated and returned to the pantheon of national heroes.

Since 1934, as is known, the teaching of history in schools has been restored as a full-fledged subject, covering, among other things, the entire history of Russia. In the decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks dated May 16, 1934 "On teaching civil history in the schools of the USSR" it was said in particular:

"Instead of teaching history in a lively, entertaining form with the presentation of events and facts in chronological sequence, with the characteristics of historical figures, students are presented with abstract definitions of socio-economic formations, thus replacing a coherent presentation of history with abstract sociological schemes."

This resolution was an important step in the rejection of the previously dominant dogmatic interpretations of Marxist concepts in Soviet historical science and school education. Stalin, unlike a number of other leaders of the Bolshevik Party, did not oppose the values ​​of state patriotism to communist ideology, but united them.

On November 7, 1941, at the famous parade on Red Square in Moscow, when the troops went straight from the parade into battle to defend the capital of our country, Stalin ended his speech as follows:

“Comrades, Red Army and Red Navy men, commanders and political workers, partisans and partisans! The whole world looks at you as a force capable of destroying the plundering hordes of German invaders. The enslaved peoples of Europe, who have fallen under the yoke of the German invaders, look at you as their liberators. A great mission of liberation has fallen to your lot. Be worthy of this mission! The war you are waging is a war of liberation, a just war. Let the courageous image of our great ancestors - Alexander Nevsky, Dmitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin, Dmitry Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Kutuzov inspire you in this war!

And here's an interesting parallel.

The fact is that with the beginning of the war - literally on June 22, 1941, the locum tenens of the patriarchal throne of the Russian Orthodox Church, Sergiy Stragorodsky, addressed the Orthodox believers. He characterized the doctrine of German fascism as consistently anti-Christian. His text also contained the following words:

"Let's remember the holy leaders of the Russian people, for example, Alexander Nevsky, Dimitri Donskoy, who laid down their souls for the people and the Motherland."

And his appeal ends with a confident statement:

"The Lord will grant us Victory!"

Stalin, of course, was aware of this appeal by Sergius and appreciated its ideological significance. And on September 4, 1943, Stalin's historic meeting with the highest hierarchs of the Orthodox Church marked the beginning of the official restoration of Orthodoxy with some support from the Soviet state. What was difficult to imagine before the war, in the 30s, during the period of the total struggle against religion, when the so-called godless five-year plan, declared by the communist party since 1932, was carried out.

It is sometimes argued that during the war years Stalin deliberately abandoned the ideology of proletarian internationalism in favor of the idea of ​​national patriotism. Rather, we must talk about giving up the illusions inherent in the policies of the Comintern, hopes for a European communist revolution and blind faith in the German working class as a revolutionary vanguard on the European continent. It is no coincidence that, answering the question of the English correspondent of the Reuters agency, Mr. King, on May 28, 1943, about the decision to dissolve the Communist International, Stalin, in particular, explained this unexpected step in this way.

The dissolution of the Comintern "makes it easier for the patriots of freedom-loving countries to unite all progressive forces, regardless of their party affiliation and religious convictions, into a single national liberation camp - to launch the struggle against fascism."

Stalin emphasized that the source of the people's heroic deeds is "ardent life-giving Soviet patriotism." The report of the Chairman of the State Defense Committee at the ceremonial meeting of the Moscow Council of Working People's Deputies with party and public organizations in Moscow on November 6, 1944, dedicated to the 27th anniversary of the Great October Socialist Revolution, emphasizes the fundamental difference between the ideological values ​​of Soviet society and German fascism.

“The German fascists have chosen as their ideological weapons a misanthropic racial theory in the expectation that the preaching of bestial nationalism will create the material and political preconditions for domination over enslaved peoples. However, the policy of racial hatred pursued by the Nazis became in fact a source of internal weakness and foreign policy isolation of the German fascist state, ”

- Stalin notes. And he makes a conclusion. During the war, the Nazis suffered not only military, but also moral and political defeat.

"The ideology of equality of all races and nations, the ideology of friendship among peoples, which has taken root in our country, has won a complete Victory over the ideology of bestial nationalism and racial hatred of the Nazis."

Stalin emphasizes that

"The Hitlerite clique, with its cannibalistic policy, has revived all the peoples of the world against Germany, and the chosen German race has become an object of universal hatred."

At the same time, Stalin, unlike a number of well-known Western politicians and journalists, never blamed the German people as a whole for the crimes of the National Socialist regime and did not slip into the position of ethnic nationalism and hostility towards the Germans as a people, and towards Germany as to the country and the state. His phrase from the Order of the People's Commissar of Defense of February 23, 1942 to the next 24th anniversary of the creation of the Red Army is well known:

"Hitlers come and go, but the German people, and the German state remains."

Stalin also strongly opposed the idea of ​​dismembering defeated Germany into several small states. Similar proposals to return Germany to a situation of fragmentation, as it was before its unification during the time of the iron chancellor Otto von Bismarck in the second half of the XNUMXth century, were put forward, as you know, by Great Britain and its leader, Prime Minister Winston pc.

Stalin saw the strength of the Red Army precisely in the fact that it "does not and cannot have racial hatred for other peoples, including the German people." And the weakness of the German army lies in the fact that by its "ideology of racial superiority it has won the hatred of the peoples of Europe"!

“In addition, one should not forget that in our country the manifestation of racial hatred is punishable by law,”

- Stalin emphasized.

Toast to the health of the people


Speaking at a reception in the Kremlin in honor of the commanders of the Red Army on May 24, 1945, Marshal I. Stalin made his famous toast to the health of the Russian people, which caused the jubilation of all those present. He said:

"I raise my glass to the health of the Russian people, because in this war they have earned general recognition - as the leading force of the Soviet Union among all the peoples of our country."

Having admitted certain mistakes of his government at the beginning of the war, Stalin expressed gratitude to the Russian people, who believed in his leadership, and stressed:

"And this confidence of the Russian people in the Soviet government turned out to be the decisive force that ensured the historic Victory over the enemy of humanity - over fascism!"

      Ideology, of course, is important, but if there is no work behind it, it remains just empty talk. At that time, the people saw that industrialization was under way in the country on a gigantic scale, the quality of life was improving, as Stalin himself said: "Life has become better, comrades, life has become more fun!" And that was true. Therefore, the seeds of ideology lay on fertile, fertilized soil.
      Now such a trick will not be possible - there is nothing behind the chatter of current ideologues ("There is Putin - there is Russia, there is no Putin - there is no Russia", "Putinism is for a long time" and other marasmic splashes from the pro-government "ilya"). There is no soil under it from the word at all. And the saddest thing is that no one is going to create this soil layer. Despite the fact that, according to the same modern "ilites", the relations of modern Russia with the outside world are now more tense than ever (yeah, but for some reason they prefer to send their children to the outside world). Something like this.

        Ideology is certainly important, but if there is no work behind it ...

        The people will not defend the hateful life, but it happens that the choice has to be made between bad and very bad.
        One thing is clear, fascism could be stopped by a socialist country and socialist ideology. The author is also right that during the construction of the world's first socialist state, random people also entered power and there were many mistakes. Only the positive in real life is always not based on empty space. So there was something that made people go to death and step over themselves:

        And the mass heroism of the Soviet people is also known both at the front and in the rear ...
        That is why renewed socialism is more desirable and dearer to people than reanimated slavery.

        Destroy the Russians' faith in their strength, destroy their national identity, turn them into Ivanov who do not remember their kinship and you can do whatever you want with them ... the state will collapse like a house of cards ... in the 90s we were convinced of this the hard way.
        Now I see new attempts to turn the same trick with the Russian people, including on our forum ... I will never support a government that will destroy the national consciousness of the Russian people.
        Stalin on the edge of the abyss realized that the main support of his power is the common people, he is the source of power, he is the Alpha and Omega of the state, and the ruler who forgets or rejects it sooner or later disappears into oblivion.

And these live. 30 years after the collapse of the USSR and the socialist camp, they retain their path of development, and in some ways even develop, think? And the North Koreans learned how to rivet in general.
                    By the way, the USSR (for the only time in the entire thousand-year history of Russia) quite confidently occupied the place of the second economy in the world and still made up for the lag behind America, having superior rates of economic development. So yeah, damn communist totalitarianism is fucking bad. Under the current Russian neo-feudalism, it is much better, because here. But the most sweet thing was in the presence of the tsars-priests, you really won't let me lie. The rolls crunched, the schoolgirls knocked them off their heels, and the peasants were completely blush and well-fed, because they ate exclusively from the rivers of milk, snacking on this good with jelly banks. So it was, I believe.

If it were not for the Israeli lobby (already 30 years as Israel is our "brotherly country"), then "other vegetables" and "carrots, turnips, beets" would not have been imported. Last but not least, a hit on the director of the state farm. Lenin Grudinin is that he is a strong competitor to Israeli products.

              To begin with, these "representatives" of Russia created, defended, expanded to the borders even more Soviet ones, raised the Russian giant people, and won many wars. And they defeated Napoleon, 130 years before Hitler, and in the First World War they did not roll back to the Volga. But yes, by the beginning of the 20th century, the system was outdated.
              And then, taking advantage of the severity of the martial law, the turmoil and political transformation, the Marxists seized power ... Vile, in the back, shamelessly deceiving the illiterate rabble with their fabulous promises, using criminals, outcasts and foreign mercenaries to strengthen their bloody power. And in the end they destroyed the country, but did not create and multiply, like "that", even if not at all ideal, elite.

                  The Marxists took advantage of the war and the intertime, the fall of the monarchy, to deceive the people, seize power and their subsequent "experiments." Without them, there would be a normal modern market parliamentary democracy, and not barbed wire across the country. And, by the way, the constituent assembly was dispersed, where they had a minority - despite all the lies, most of the people did not believe them. Which, by the way, removes the historical responsibility for communism from the Russian people - unlike the Germans who voluntarily accepted Nazism, our people did not invite communists. Themselves were victims. And even decades later, all this Marxism has not taken root among the people - as soon as the naive Gorbachev really gave people something to choose, partly bringing the real communist "people's democracy" to the declared one, as all communism immediately fell down like a house of cards. Somehow 70 years were not enough for him to take root.

The army was disintegrated by the Marxists themselves, by their "revolutionary" agitation, so this is another Marxist chutzpah, that someone is to blame for the failures at the front.

                    The Romanov dynasty surfaced in the time of troubles and ended with the troubles that it created and prepared.
                    The system was initially vicious: a chimera with a European head on a Eurasian body has completely outlived its usefulness. It was then clear to everyone, so none of the parties in the GW tried to resurrect her. Then various projects of revolutionary reorganization fought, there was simply no "counter-revolution".
                    The Bolsheviks could well erect a monument to Nikolashka for creating a "revolutionary situation": Stolypin's reforms, which destroyed the very foundations of the former order of Russia and dragging into a completely unnecessary war, a war for the interests of Britain and the United States.
                    However, it should be noted that Nikolashka earned his bullet honestly. Having renounced the throne, he also resigned from the duties of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief. Leaving a combat post in the midst of a war is an act of desertion. The act of the last emperor dealt a blow to the morale of the Russian army stronger than all the revolutionary anti-war propaganda ... what kind of victories at the front.
                    So for his desertion and undermining the army, the last Romanov received what he deserved. And the fact that this "sovereign" was recorded as a saint is a real shame of our era.

    When Napoleon was defeated, it was part of the chain from the Battle of Kulikovo and this chain did not break in the Second World War. And what was the ideology in all the fateful Victories of Russia before the Second World War? Leader, Motherland, Vera. Stalin, in the depths of the consciousness of the Soviet people, was the power that the Russian princes and Tsars-Winners possessed. But the spineless Nicholas II remained spineless in the Russian mind. And how Stalin carried out industrialization! And how Stalin defeated the pro-Western fifth column before the Second World War!
    This is what kind of willpower and fortitude one had to have, that after the Civil War, to raise the country in such a way and so clean it up. That is why people first of all sacrificed themselves during the Second World War, because they believed in the power of Stalin as the Leader. And there were two more feet in a ryazh in the Russian spirit. Homeland and Vera. Without a strong Leader, those two pillars would not have withstood the full weight of the misfortune! So on May 9, at the Victory Parade, not to carry portraits of Stalin is blasphemy!

      At the words "Motherland and Vera," any devout Marxist puffs up the hair on the nape of the neck. According to Marxism, history is driven by the class struggle. And the bourgeoisie invented your "homelands" and "faiths" to deceive the working class. By the way, you have forgotten about the "people", and loyalty to them (namely, national, not class) - which is in general nationalism and the gravest sin for the Marxists.

    Very interesting. First, the communists killed and starved to death tens of millions of Russian people (18 million were victims of hunger and repression during the first 20 years of Soviet power, according to conservative estimates), destroyed the Russian officers (the acute shortage of command personnel in the 41st), even transplanted their own officers who had somehow grown up. (due to the "peculiarities" of their political system, which could not have been without executions and terror), they missed a sudden "treacherous" attack (another German "blitzkrieg" about which even their generals warned Dzhugashvili, but in the Soviet system the word is for the leader - checks and there are no counterbalances), supplied their future killers with strategic materials in gigantic quantities (Soviet echelons went to Germany on June 22nd), lost almost the entire cadre army in mediocre boilers in the first months, let the enemy through to the Volga and lost 27 million people (and this is only for their own same calculations) ...
    And now they are talking about the "ideology of victory"!
    Wonderful.
    And of course, as always, the communists 'passages about the lack of democracy, independent trade unions, violation of workers' rights and other exposures of "enemies of democratic freedoms, medieval reaction" are touched by the communists. Oh well.
    And this is not to mention the fact that the arrival of National Socialism itself is largely due to the reaction of society to the communist threat - according to the principle "these are better than the communists" and in the hope that "these" will somehow cope with the communists. So without the Bolsheviks, most likely there would have been no Nazism. And if the German threat had arisen again - without the Bolsheviks (with whom no one in their right mind wanted to be "friends"), Russia would not have remained isolated and the Germans would not have been able to consistently defeat France (with Soviet help) and then turn to the east with all their might , as it was not possible in 1914.
    And now about the "ideology of victory". This "ideology" consists, first, in Russia's vast demographic, territorial, and spiritual resources, created not by the communists and not for the communists. Which, even with disgusting leadership, made it possible to withstand the enemy, several times smaller in population, and dozens of times smaller in territory and natural resources. Secondly, this is a victory over a smaller part of the West, which at the same time with us was at war with most of the West, and even was in a strategic blockade from all sides (except, for the first couple of years, the eastern one, where the communists traded with them). And thirdly, since we are talking specifically about "ideology", then this is the only necessary, albeit clearly forced, decision of the communist elite to move away from the propaganda of the class struggle (which, according to Marxism, moves the world) in favor of really acting motives - the defense of the homeland, the people , faith, etc. (ie, to "obscurantists", according to Marxist theory, patriotism, nationalism, and religion). As it was rightly said in the article, "deliberately abandoned the ideology of proletarian internationalism in favor of the idea of ​​national patriotism" - this and only this could raise the Russian people to fight.

        Stalin's Great Terror - 4 million people
        The Red Terror of the Bolsheviks after the revolution - 2 million people. The figure looks underestimated, the true scale is unknown, because The Bolsheviks, unlike the 30s, were not yet sure that they were serious and for a long time, and they tried not to leave evidence for themselves. Moreover, they killed the best.
        Plus deportation. Plus the post-war famine (when money and food were available, but they were held for other purposes).

But at the same time they forget the previous figures that they slipped in (this is a pro-how about the overstatement of data by Stalin in the pre-war period). Those. before the war there are few people (well, clearly the famine and repressions), on the eve of the war suddenly there are a lot of people - here the losses must be increased (the difference is increasing).

The memories are striking that when Mao asked the provincial leaders if everything was in order with their food and if the government's help was needed, those, for career reasons, cheerfully reported that everything was fine, although hunger was raging.

      Again a set of tales on duty.
      The population of the country after the Great Patriotic War and before the beginning of the Second World War grew, and did not decline, as in post-Soviet times.
      These liberal reforms of the 90s led to millions of demographic losses.
      It is time.
      The former tsarist officers did not show themselves very well in the First World War. Defeat after defeat, starting from Tannenberg ... Even the famous "Brusilovsky Breakthrough" actually ended in failure. Well, of course, not only the officers are to blame, especially since the tsarist government itself mediocrely ditched the best cadres at the beginning of the war, as it ditched the Russian-Japanese squadron of Rozhdestvensky near Tsushima ... the tsarist regime could not make up for the losses with a full replacement. Plus - the military-industrial complex was not up to the mark: technical backwardness, corruption, etc.
      This two.
      The arrival of National Socialism is primarily due to revanchist sentiments. In the end, the forerunner of the National Assembly - Italian fascism came to power when no one took Bolshevism seriously. In general, fascism and the National Assembly are the quintessence of Western political culture, devoid of all fig leaves. Fascism lies at the heart of the most Western civilization, which grew out of the wreckage of the Roman Empire, in fact a deeply fascist state.
      These are three.
      The Soviet system is an organic manifestation of the essence of Russian spiritual and political culture, real Russia - not the rotten "Westernized" imperial elite, but the working Russian people.
      Yes, our socialism was not of a Marxist sense, it could not be "strictly according to Marx", in strict accordance with the postulates of Marx himself. Marxism is for Europeans, and we are not Europeans and will never become Europeans.
      "I am not a raven, I am a raven, a raven flies after me." E. Pugachev.
      So the raven flew in, a century and a half after the execution of Pugachev.
      These are four.
      About patriotism. Homelands, like mothers, are different. Sometimes "Rodina", like a bad mother, should be deprived of her maternal rights. In the First World War it happened.
      But in the Great Patriotic War - a completely different situation. As a mother to her children, so children to a mother. So there is no need to compare the patriotism of Soviet people with the past ... two big differences.
      It's five.
      The passage about "defeating a smaller part of the West" is especially ridiculous. What did the "majority of the West" show themselves so cowardly and ineptly both in Munich in 1938 and at Dunkirk in 1940?
      Why did the European inhabitants so humbly accept Hitler's power, while others volunteered for his service?
      What was it that the majority was so drawn to with the opening of the "second front"? Apparently she was not very confident in her own strengths, in the fact that it was the "majority" ...
      It was just then that the West had already fully demonstrated its spiritual rottenness. "We are strong in goods, but weak in spirit .."

        It is clear to anyone except the communists that if the population grows, this is not a sign of the absence of repression. As well as vice versa. The highest growth in Africa, in the most developed countries - a decline. In the 19th century, the population of Russia quadrupled. And by the way, in WWI it was more than in Scoop in 39m and more than 91m, on the territory of the Russian Federation left after communism. But that's okay, the usual Marxist demagoguery.
        We should have “won” in WWII as the tsarist government “lost” in WWII. Here the enemy was allowed through half of the European part of the country, there was a crush on the border, with "defeats" in the form of the loss of a part of the Baltic states. And the outcome of the war was quite clear - a bright victory, they would have gotten the Bosphorus with the Dardanelles and much more, in contrast to the WWII as a result of which only communism was exported to Eastern Europe, which the local inhabitants still cannot forgive us.
        The main internal motivation specifically for Hitler and the entire National Assembly was anti-Semitism, which is quite obvious. But the coming to power (the demand for society and the non-interference of the Entente) occurred precisely because of the general (and fully justified) fear of communism. And this calculation, by the way, was justified, although the costs turned out to be surprisingly high, but still, even in Germany as a result of WWII, fewer people died than in Russia alone from communism, excluding WWII, including in percentage terms.
        Fascism and Nazism, first of all, are different things. And secondly, fascism is simply concentrated totalitarianism. The idea of ​​a totalitarian state as the best structure of society. Which, by the way, is diametrically opposed to the Western political tradition since the days of Ancient Greece. So the eternal mantras of the communists that fascism is a certain final stage in the evolution of "capitalism" are blatant lies - "capitalism" seeks to minimize the state, not its totality. For the West today, German National Socialism is generally the anti-pole and the embodiment of absolute evil. By the way, Mussolini's "doctrine of fascism" describes a set of features of this system, and, no matter how funny, communism does not just correspond to each of them - it is a champion in them. So, according to formal criteria, the USSR can be considered the most fascist state of that time. However, in the future, it may have been pushed off the pedestal by such showcases of communism as Maoist China and Pol Pot's Cambodia.
        The Marxist system is deeply alien to everything Russian and has never been voluntarily accepted by the Russian people. In Marxist philosophy itself, materialism and anti-religiousness run like a red thread, which is the complete antithesis of the Russian soul. Marxism in Russia held on only to deception and terror. As soon as they stopped believing and planting, he immediately fell down.
        Guided by the "doctrine of Marx" it is impossible to create any system, for this doctrine is divorced from life and is fundamentally wrong. Yes, it is most likely not intended for anything other than the stories of beautiful fairy tales to the semi-literate population (and the seizure of power on the shoulders of this population, of course). So any really existing "socialism" will not be "according to Marx", otherwise it simply cannot exist.
        Marxism considered the state an instrument of class suppression and declared the final rejection of it. He also considered the existence of nations to be artificial, and hence nationalism. You don't have to mention religion at all. For a true Marxist, there is only class struggle and proletarian internationalism. Patriotism, nationalism, religion - all this, according to the Marxists, is a bourgeois fairy tale. So the Soviet turn towards them was purely forced and contradicted their own canons. The Marxists never had any "Motherland", and they didn't give a damn about the Russian people.
        Nobody says that the contribution of the USSR to the victory over Germany was less than that of the Allies. But it is quite obvious that the one-on-one Reich was much stronger (and, by the way, reached space first - if we talk about Soviet "achievements"). So the scoops can thank the hated Allies for the victory - if they had not intervened, even if the United States stood on the sidelines, then Soviet scraps would have rushed through the back streets. But for some reason the "capitalists" decided to oppose their "quintessence" in alliance with the communists they hate, refuting the Marxist constructs.

And by the way, in WWI it was more than in Scoop in 39m and more than in 91m, on the territory of the Russian Federation left after communism. But that's okay, the usual Marxist demagoguery.


          That is why the "developed countries" are giving up their positions and are ready to share the fate of the Roman Empire.
          The population of Russia in the 19th century grew, first of all, due to the entry of new territories, despite the high birth rate, the growth of the "imperial people" was far from being a record one.
          Geographically, neither the USSR 1939 nor the Russian Federation 1992 correspond to the Russian Empire. But the main merit in this belongs not to the communists, but to their political opponents - the liberal democrats.
          It was the liberals who destroyed the Russian Empire, even before the Bolsheviks came to power. The Bolsheviks then had to reassemble the country, although Poland and Finland had to be lost.
          And the collapse of the USSR is also on the conscience of the liberal democrats under the leadership of the renegades Gorbachev and Yeltsin.
          In general, the usual liberal demagoguery bully

          And the outcome of the war was quite clear - a bright victory, they would have gotten the Bosphorus with the Dardanelles and much more.


          They would not have gained anything, but would have lost the country.
          First, Germany would not have lost to WWI. After all, the reason for her defeat was the revolution, which sent the Kaiser to the dustbin of history, like Nikolashka.
          But the revolution in Germany is only an "echo" of October. If we had not had the October Revolution, there would have been no revolution in Germany, therefore, there would not have been its defeat. The exhausted Entente would not have had the strength to take Berlin.
          Germany and Austria-Hungary were then merged not by the Entente, but by Lenin, using a systemic weapon - the "plague of Bolshevism."
          Secondly, the October Revolution was preceded by the February Revolution, which brought to power an incapacitated liberal government that no longer controlled the de facto imperial outskirts (Ukraine, the Caucasus, Central Asia). The ease with which it was overthrown,
          proves his weakness and doom. Democratic gentlemen were a priori incapable of victorious military action, let alone be able to take advantage of the fruits of victory.
          Well, this is not why our "Western partners" brought liberals to power in Russia to share "goodies" with them. No, they would very willingly tore pieces from Russia, no worse than the Germans. And as in the 90s "the young anti-Soviet republic was suffocating in the ring of friends." With the difference that there was no powerful deterrent at that time - nuclear weapons.

          So they didn't get the Bosphorus with the Dardanelles - they lost Arkhangelsk, Crimea, the Caucasus, the Far East.


          Fascism and Nazism, first of all, are different things. And secondly, fascism is simply concentrated totalitarianism. The idea of ​​a totalitarian state as the best structure of society. Which, by the way, is diametrically opposed to the Western political tradition since the days of Ancient Greece.


          Fascism, Nazism and liberalism are related. They have the same spiritual fathers - Malthus, Locke, Hobbes, Nietzsche.
          It is based on the division of people into varieties, obviously unequal. Either on a national basis, or on a social, class basis.
          In modern conditions, class principles merge with national and racial ones. There are bourgeois nations, there are proletarian nations, there are lumpen nations. Liberalism and Nazism are increasingly merging into an explosive mixture.
          Any modern Western "democracy" is inherently totalitarian. Yes, no (so far. There is a totalitarian state, but there is already a totalitarian society, there are mega-corporations that are increasingly acquiring the properties of political subjects and there is no smell of any "freedom of choice" inside them - rigid hierarchical systems.
          Well, he made fun of it. The first model of a totalitarian state was described by the Greek Plato, who called it "ideal".
          And in Sparta, the homeland of Tsar Leonidas, such harsh totalitarian orders reigned (even sex was regulated) that the Reich could envy.
          Aristotle wrote a treatise On the Nature of Slavery. Rosenberg's opuses are just his pale shadow.

          Slavery, inequality, the division into "lower" and "higher", the construction of their prosperity on the export of exploitation and poverty are the essence of Western political tradition. And in the days of the Roman emperors and in our time.

        "Churchill did not want the defeat of the USSR, because in this case, victorious Germany would have attacked England with a vengeance and, probably, in the end would have occupied the British Isles. But Churchill also did not want the complete defeat of Germany, for in this case the USSR would have become too powerful and the influence emanating from it would threaten to undermine the colonial foundations of the British Empire, and indeed cause great upheavals of an anti-capitalist nature in the world. Ideal, from Churchill's point of view, would be if both Germany and the USSR emerged from the war badly shabby, bled and wandered on crutches for at least a whole generation, while England would have come to the finish line with a minimum of losses and in the good shape of a European boxer. This naturally led to the desire to show maximum savings in the expenditure of their own efforts to win the war and, conversely, to shift the maximum effort, suffering and losses to achieve this goal on the Soviet Union.

          Consider whatever you like, the point is not in terms.
          You can even consider this as a Counter-Revolution in relation to the revolutionary transformations of Peter the Great.
          No matter how hard the homegrown Westerners try, we will never become a part of the West, Europe.
          The United States and Britain were the majority of the West, given their potential (economic, human, etc.).
          Hitler had already crushed the European husk of Belgium-Holland. Who else is there?
          I don't care what Churchill was counting on. In fact, he is the losing side.
          The two World Wars are "British Succession" wars, prepared and instigated by the American elite. She is the true winner, having cemented her victory with the Bretton Woods Agreements.
          And Britain lost the 20th century. With what she began the 20th century, and with what she ended ... sadness, however. Geopolitical losses are much stronger than those of Russia, and the pound no longer has the same status as in century 19.

    by concluding a non-aggression pact with Germany, we ensured peace for our country for a year and a half and the possibility of preparing our forces to repulse,
    The pact was needed to push the borders back - to return their lands, but he did not push back the attack for a single second: when Hitler was fully prepared (resolved issues in Europe and concentrated), then he began. There is not a single evidence that during these two years Hitler was stopped by the RM pact.

    In addition, during these two incomplete years, the USSR became stronger by interest, and Hitler became stronger by the captured one. Europe.

    but, the leader believed, she "lost politically, exposing herself in the eyes of the whole world as a bloody aggressor."

    what is there to "expose": she (like Italy) by June 1941 already a long time ago was recognized bloody aggressor ALL the world - after its attacks and occupations of Poland, Norway, France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Greece, Yugoslavia, Albania. Much more ...

    However, we can rightfully speak about the restoration within the framework of the official ideology. historical continuity throughout Russian history... And this new ideological policy, which was undoubtedly initiated by Stalin, did not begin at all with the outbreak of war, as they sometimes write, but back in the second half of the 30s, when iconic patriotic films about the commander Suvorov, Alexander Nevsky, Minin and Pozharsky. These important historical figures were actually rehabilitated and returned to the pantheon of national heroes. the image of our great ancestors - Alexander Nevsky, Dmitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin, Dmitry Pozharskogо

    for without this there is no country.

    But before that, the main military monuments and shrines of Russia were destroyed and plundered - the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the Naval Cathedral in Kronstadt and Sevastopol, tombs of the same Minin and Pozharsky, monuments of Borodino, Maloyaroslavets, etc., etc.

    But it is impossible without it, as it turned out ...

      The pact, first of all, created a split between the Reich and Japan. Hitler could well have started a war against the USSR earlier, because Japan had already fought with the USSR. A war on two fronts could have become a reality by 1940 for the USSR.
      The pact eliminated such a threat.

              So it was later, as it were. End of 1941
              The Japanese were bred like suckers. Reasonable Japanese were well aware that such a war would not be pulled, and the Americans were well aware that the Japanese were a very convenient enemy for them. Skillful diplomacy and backstage intrigues did their job. The Japanese skillfully played the role of an "icebreaker" for the Americans, chopping off their colonies from the European powers, and then the Yankees, having conquered the colonies, "forgot" to return them to their former owners. With Vietnam, however, it did not work out, well, it happens ...

              Much more interesting is why the Japanese suspended hostilities against the USSR.
              Certainly not only because Zhukov won a tactical victory. Our forces in the theater of operations were very limited, but for the Japanese it was reconnaissance in force. Together with the Manchukou army, they could deploy 2 million bayonets, being sure that it would not be possible to transfer large forces from the European part of the USSR - Hitler was also there.
              But Hitler signed a pact with the USSR, which made a full-scale war against the USSR less predictable. So the Japanese “channelized” their aggression in a different direction.

              Leaving a belligerent France in the rear was madness.


              "Howling France" especially delivers. More details about the military operations of France against Germany in 1939 What battles, what losses, what is the result?
              Even in the campaign against Poland, Hitler used all the tank divisions, the main striking power of the Wehrmacht. In western Germany, the German divisions were disabled teams, but the French did not take their chance.

              so it was necessary to prepare for the 41st-who was in the way?
              This is not a 6-year-old Wehrmacht of a country without an army, a navy, and even under sanctuary.


              The French were also preparing ... did it help?
              Easy to say.
              And that the Wehrmacht was created from scratch?
              The Weimar Republic had an army. Yes, small, but with the highest quality frames. The privates are ready-made sergeants. The officer corps is beauty and pride. The personnel and experience with the PMA have not gone anywhere. A highly developed industry, excellent design bureaus, science, engineering staff have not gone anywhere. In terms of the number of engineers, Germany surpassed the USSR dozens of times.
              You cannot produce warships for your fleet - but you can create for export. You cannot produce combat aircraft - you can create civilian and sports aircraft with excellent characteristics. The Me-109 had a civilian predecessor, the Me-108.
              And so on ... Germany had much better starting conditions than the USSR, which had to create a lot from scratch.

                what, excuse me, nonsense!

                Japan waged the hardest years of war with Chinato which she has lack of resources- what other wars in the north?
                Quote: Illanatol
                But Hitler signed a pact with the USSR, which made a full-scale war against the USSR less predictable. So the Japanese “channelized” their aggression in a different direction.

                The Japanese knew very well the price of these pacts, until September 1, 1939.

                and the other direction was more important to them: there were no resources to explode

                  what, excuse me, nonsense!

                  Japan was waging a difficult long-term war with China, for which it did not have enough resources - what other wars in the north?


                  The Kuomintang army was backward and weak, the Japanese beat it as they wanted. And the territories captured in China were an excellent resource base, the Kwantung Army was not only self-sufficient, but also sent coal and metal to the metropolis.
                  Something was not prevented by the lack of resources for the attack on Mongolia, however.

                  The USSR is not Poland: the Franks would let the USSR and Germany kill each other and take Germany cheaply


                  Alas, the authority of the military might of the USSR was not as high in the West as you imagine.
                  The "Miracle on the Vistula" has not yet been forgotten, alas. As well as the failures of tsarist Russia in WWI, although the eastern front was not the main one for Germany at that time. And the USSR was forced to fight in splendid isolation.
                  So such calculations are the fruit of your imagination, nothing more.

                  the rate of capture of the USSR was twice as high as that of France - just the territory of France quickly ended


                  A large territory, on the one hand, is a plus for defense, and on the other - a minus. A large territory and a large border are more difficult to defend, especially given the changed nature of the war: the war has become more agile, a war of engines. It has become much more difficult to predict the actions of the aggressor. Therefore, the advantage is on the side of the attacking, not the defending side. For the first time, an effective defense began to require more forces than an offensive. And the more, the larger the territory.
                  The French army was completely mobilized, but the Red Army was not.

                  so, who prevented Karlhorst from doing 1945 in 1918? And there would be no WWII


                  WWII was inevitable and not through the fault of the USSR.

        Hitler was not going to attack (then) and could not under any sauce (France), the USSR was also not going to either attack or stand up for Poland (although he could, i.e. Hitler got more)

        and yes: there was no pact - and there was no war. He appeared - the war has come.

        But in reality it was precisely the definition of the agreed BORDERS that was made, i.e. the subject of the war was also removed.

          In fact, the question was: what was the pact for, and not what it gave in reality. But nevertheless: 1) He spoiled the relations of the Germans with the Japanese and incidentally 2) compromised the Germans in the eyes of those White emigrants who had plans for Germany (for example, the Russian Fascist Union); 3) thanks to him, the borders in Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltic States and Karelia moved to the west; 4) it led to the conclusion of major trade agreements with Germany, the terms of which in terms of preparation for war were more beneficial to us than to the Germans.

              to compare Poland and the USSR, who do you need to be?

              1) Why are you talking about comparing "Poland" and "USSR", and not "Poland, France and Great Britain with colonies" and "USSR, Tannu Tuva and Mongolia"?
              without it, it would not exist, it is a fact

              2) If you write the word "fact" before a hypothesis, it does not cease to be a hypothesis.
              complete failure

          Hitler was not going to attack (then) and could not under any sauce (France)

          1) He negotiated with the Poles (pre-feeding Zaolzie) in the fall of 1938 about Poland joining the Anti-Comintern Pact, about an extraterritorial road for the transfer of troops through Polish territory with promises to Poland of territories in the east, because he was not going to attack in the next year?
          2) What about France? Is at war with Germany as of the summer of 1939, when the negotiations began, which ended with the MP pact? France guarantees the inviolability of the USSR? France is geographically located between the USSR and Germany? There is only one answer to three questions - no. Therefore, there are no obstacles in the form of France for Germany to carry out aggression against the USSR in 1939 either.

          Situation in Europe by August 1939:
          1) The anti-Comintern bloc is strengthening - to Germany, Italy and Japan, Hungary, Spain and Manchukuo join. Bulgaria and Romania are still outside the pact only de jure, and de facto have been fascist for several years. Like the Slovak Republic and Estonia.
          2) The goal of the Anti-Comintern bloc is the USSR and this is not hiding
          3) England and France are indifferent to the threat of the spread of fascism in Europe. This was shown by Munich and Dusseldorf - between capitalist countries there can be no obstacle in ideology, but only in sales markets, in Dusseldorf England and Germany conclude a cartel agreement and divide spheres of economic influence.
          4) Diplomatically, England, France and Germany have non-aggression agreements among themselves.
          5) Mein Kampf makes it clear about the vector of German expansion - to the east. This is confirmed by the actual actions of the Reich - Austria and Czechoslovakia are the eastern borders of Germany.
          6) Only the territory of Poland separates Germany from the attack on the USSR.
          7) The relations between Germany and Poland are such that there is no guarantee that a military alliance is not possible between them - Germany fed Poland with the Vilna region and the Cieszyn region. The fact that Germany viewed Poland as an ally, and not an obstacle until mid-spring 1939, is confirmed by negotiations between the countries and the terms of the proposed agreement.
          8) Even if an alliance does not arise between Poland and Germany, Munich showed that there is no guarantee that France will stand up for Poland. (Note. - As life has shown, these were reasonable suspicions, having made a good face with a bad game, France did not tease Germany, after all, everyone knows that Hitler's goal is the east). Before the pact, Poland does not have an agreement of mutual assistance with England (Note - As life has shown, the existence of an agreement did not change anything)
          Thus, by the summer of 1939, it was perfectly clear to everyone that German aggression against the USSR could not be avoided and no one would stand up for the USSR.
          In this situation, what do you propose to the USSR - instead of concluding a pact, carry out a preventive strike against Germany?

            Poland, even before the partition of Czechoslovakia, was actually Hitler's ally.
            You can recall the episode with the Anschluss of Austria. Then France wanted to block this attempt by Hitler and turned to the Polish leadership with a proposal for joint actions, since they were allies. Poland actually sabotaged France's actions by putting forward unacceptable counter conditions. France had to remain silent; Hitler was the winner. Probably did not forget to tell the Poles "danke shon"

          But in reality it was precisely the definition of the agreed BORDERS that was made, i.e. the subject of the war was also removed.


          There are no "objects" for war, there are reasons and reasons.
          There would be a reason - but there will be a reason.
          And Hitler outlined the reasons for the war against the USSR in detail long before the PMR.

          Hitler attacked exactly when he considered himself prepared and finished business in Europe .. And where did the pact stop him?

          On the contrary, he helped calmly, without fear of his back, with all his might, to deal with Europe.


          Hitler did not finish business with Europe, England then remained. By itself, it did not pose a threat to England, but it is an ideal springboard for the deployment of US forces for the subsequent
          invasion of the continent.

          Even before the conclusion of the Pact, Hitler did not fear behind his back. The episode with Czechoslovakia shows this completely.

    Is it worth breaking spears. Everything is relative . 1917-1947 and 1991-2021. The so-called civil war, when on the territory of Russia German troops, Japan, England, France, the USA, even from faraway Australia were pinned. But the country held out, decided on its goals, began to rise to its feet, but then the real 1941, not some imaginary Obama, but the Nazis invaded the country. We survived, revived.
    And now someone is interfering with everything, then the can will come to rewrite all the textbooks, then the hospital's trump closes. Suddenly the retirement age will jump by itself .. This probably has not happened in the history of any country. You see Crimea, ours, and Kharkov is a country404.

      The so-called civil war, which was unleashed by the communists, illegally seizing power and organizing mass terror. Naturally, action creates opposition. How would you react now if the power in the country were appropriated for no reason by some, say, Scientologists, and for the sake of their "only correct teaching" they began to kill all dissent? Naturally, the duty of any honest person is to fight them by any means. And the war was not with the invaders, but with the Russian people who remained faithful to their duty and unwashed by the Marxist propaganda. And England-France helped as much as possible, and even then, unfortunately, not enough.
      It is easy to build factories using slave labor. Keeping engineers in scuffles. Close borders from the inside. Pay for labor as much as you like. Take values ​​from citizens. Rob the peasants to starvation. With absolute dictatorship and complete contempt for civil rights in general, many things are easier to do. So comparisons with the West or even today's Russia are incorrect. However, the communist fuse was not enough for a long time - from the 30s to the 60s, then stagnation and degradation. And to the West, despite all efforts, in general development in no way even approached, only in certain types of weapons.
      And even about "Kharkiv 404" I would not even stutter in the place of the communists - they cut up different "Ukrainians" from Russia for some unknown reason, carried out "indigenization" and Ukrainization in them. And even after the formation of their "union" they continued to take away the Russian territories. And at the end of their short history, with a noise and a bang, together with their party, they dissolved the country. So we are sitting now on the ruins.

      And the "spears", obviously, are worth breaking - since the Marxists, with inimitable arrogance, as if nothing had happened, continue to spread their poison and declare some kind of their moral superiority (!). Abomination unfinished. "Who owns the past, he owns the future" (c). And if the Nazis were forced to repent for much lesser sins, then why should the communists walk around to this day as if nothing had happened.

It was he who changed the original plans for the collapse of the Republic of Ingushetia, it was he who, at the cost of incredible sacrifices and efforts, turned the country from the vector of collapse, and lifted it into space.

    Let us cite the text of this Stalinist toast in its entirety, in the form in which it was seen by millions of Soviet citizens on the pages of central newspapers.

    “Comrades, let me raise another, last toast.

    I would like to raise a toast to the health of our Soviet people and, above all, the Russian people. (Stormy, prolonged applause, cries of "cheers").

    I drink, above all, for the health of the Russian people because it is the most prominent nation of all the nations that make up the Soviet Union.

    I am raising a toast to the health of the Russian people because they have earned in this war general recognition as the leading force of the Soviet Union among all the peoples of our country.

    I raise a toast to the health of the Russian people, not only because they are the leading people, but also because they have a clear mind, a strong character, and patience.

    Our government had many mistakes, we had moments of desperate situation in 1941-1942, when our army retreated, left our native villages and cities of Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, the Leningrad Region, the Baltic States, the Karelian-Finnish Republic, left because there was no other way. Other people could say to the government: you did not live up to our expectations, go away, we will set up another government that will conclude peace with Germany and provide us with peace.

    But the Russian people did not go for it, for they believed in the correctness of the policy of their government and made sacrifices to ensure the defeat of Germany. And this confidence of the Russian people in the Soviet government turned out to be the decisive force that ensured a historic victory over the enemy of mankind - over fascism.

    Thanks to him, the Russian people, for this trust!

    To the health of the Russian people! (Stormy, long-lasting applause) ”.

    There are some minor differences from the published version in the transcript of Stalin's speech. In particular, the Baltic was not mentioned among the territories that our army was forced to leave in the early years of the war, and at the end of the newspaper version the emphasis was shifted to the words about the victory over fascism, while the following Stalinist words given in the transcript were partially cut out: “I repeat, we had mistakes, for the first two years our army was forced to retreat, it turned out that they did not master the events, did not cope with the situation. However, the Russian people believed, endured, waited and hoped that we would still cope with the events. For this trust in our government, which the Russian people have shown us, thank him very much! " This happened as a result of Stalin's personal editing of his toast before placing it in print.

              This can only be written by people who have never led anyone. Without leadership, a mass of people is a crowd. Another thing is that there should be an idea that unites this mass, and leaders at all its levels (squad, platoon, company, battalion, etc.). The leaders ensure the solution of the task. And every soldier must know his own maneuver (A. Suvorov). And the political worker is responsible for introducing the idea to the masses. Now there are political workers, but there are problems with the idea.

        Well, yes ... an old Russian proverb ... PEOPLE are like a tongue, where you turn there and it came out!
        Well then, my dear fighter against leaderism, tell me please, how did it happen that the Central Asian peoples, cutting the throats of the Russians, stood to death under the walls of Moscow?
        Representatives of the peoples "who cut the throats of the Russians" As you write, now welcome guests in the Kremlin, and not just representatives of those peoples, but also people who personally participated ... and for this our thanks to the next great leader.

          Slogans are good, but how did it happen that they laid down their lives under the Russian city and for the freedom of the Russian people? Can you answer that?

            You are of course right and the "wild division" in the First World War, and the Bashkirs with the Kazakhs in the wars against Napoleon, and even more so the alliance of Alexander Nevsky with the Horde, all this is a merit and achievement exclusively of Comrade Stalin.

              My dear man, I am asking you, by the way, in Russian, why in 1916 they were against the Russians, and in 1941 they did not spare their lives for the same Russians ??
              What is the reason? Or does your nationalistic ego forbid you to truthfully answer this question?

      And it was largely not thanks to, but in spite of many things, including the leadership.


      Yeah. The leadership gave the "people" tanks and planes, and they fought back: "We will fight with a club and a pitchfork!"
      The leadership developed plans for strategic operations, and the "people" fought on a whim, wherever they wanted, they attacked there.
      Good nonsense to bear. It is impossible to win victories without the absence of one-man command, the unification of the will of the commanders and the energy of the masses.

    There have been so many moments in the history of Russia when Russian lands belonged to foreigners that it is impossible to list. But for some reason, all attention is paid to the time of Soviet power. The author, being in the modern trend, focuses on nationalism. Deservedly glorifying the Russian people, Stalin is first of all honored the working class. "We must be loyal to the proletariat, and not to a single individual" -Stalin. Now the Army and the Navy are considered the main ally. Then the main ally was the Soviet people. It is he who creates everything that the military uses. It can be argued for a long time, but the working class and the peasantry are gradually melting away. Namely, these layers constituted power in any war.

    It is easy to build factories using slave labor. Keeping engineers in scuffles. Close borders from the inside. Pay for labor as much as you like. Take values ​​from citizens. Rob the peasants to starvation. With absolute dictatorship and complete contempt for civil rights in general, many things are easier to do.

    An excellent description (minus the engineers in sharashkas) of life in Russia before the USSR. After the USSR, much of this is also present.

    The victory was for the PEOPLE, as well as the pain and sacrifice, and not only the Russian, but at that time the Soviet. And it was largely not thanks to, but in spite of many things, including the leadership.

    The victory is always of the people. But the same people themselves did not always win, but suffered defeats. It means that the victory of the people depends on the social system and on the leaders of this very people.
    The victory of the people not because of, but in spite of the system and the leaders does not beat.

    Slave labor is ineffective, and modern industry cannot be built by slaves.
    If slaves can be beaten to build an advanced industry, then the empires of slave owners have survived to this day.

    The remaining communist countries (North Korea, Cuba) still have few smartphones. So not everyone is affected by this progress.

    Vyi does not know - the PRC, a communist state leading the world in the field of smartphones.
    The DPRK is also full of locally made smartphones. I have no information about Cuba and Vietnam, but I think smartphones there are no worse than in Asia and Latin America in general.

    The so-called civil war, which was unleashed by the communists, illegally seizing power and organizing mass terror.

    1. The civil war was unleashed by foreign military intervention. Without this intervention, everything ended in a matter of days and with minimal casualties.
    2. The communes "seized" power absolutely legally. For them, councils voted - the only democratic form of government in the country at that time. The Soviets held an honorable meeting for the Constituent Assembly and it is not their fault that this assembly did not recognize the Soviet government and thus did not recognize itself. It is interesting that the communists also held the second vybor in the history of Russia when their enemies were defeated at the end of the 20th century. I don’t know any other democratic voices in the history of Russia, when the opposition of the authorities won. Remember if you scored.
    3. The terror of linen and foreign invaders began a few months before the Red Terror and his mashab beat an order of magnitude.

    And because of what, in principle, are the sanctions being taken?
    We take North Korea

    Sanctions are adopted, in principle, for the disarmament and maximum weakening of a certain country that the United States wants to attack and occupy. Example Yugoslavia, Iraq, Libya, Syria and so on.
    For this purpose, they also imposed sanctions against the DPRK, but so far disarmament has not been achieved.

    In return, we got:
    1. Bread - after the establishment of collective farms, there has never been a famine in Russia in peacetime.
    2. Peace - after the defeat of Germany, no one dared and would think to attack Russia. And to this day, the legacy of the USSR preserves the peace and independence of Russia.

    And the war was not with the invaders, but with the Russian people who remained faithful to their duty and unwashed by the Marxist propaganda. And England-France helped as much as possible, and even then, unfortunately, not enough.

    In other words, the "Russian people", together with the interventionists, were defeated by the Bolsheviks.
    Let's leave aside how much the Russian people "loved" the German-Anglo-French-Japanese-American-Polish and so on interventionists.
    There are only two outputs here:
    1. The Bolsheviks possessed a supernatural ability and defeated the Russian people along with the interventionists - which I do not believe.
    2. The Russian people supported and fought for the Bolsheviks, and only in this way did they manage to defeat the interventionists and their local Russian servants with "brains that do not get rid of."

    The author, for all his patriotism, is not free from the liberal clichés of the West. For example, in the question of "authoritarianism". So what happens? Does the political structure of the country depend on the personal character of one person?

    Nope ... it depends on the LAWS OF THE STATE. And what were they like in the USSR? It is, of course, to the descendants of serfs, for whom the law = the arbitrariness of the master, it is not interesting, you never know what the laws were, we live like in a gang, according to the concepts ........

    But objectively, there was legislation in the USSR. For today's youth, this is generally a discovery, not everyone believes !!! Ah-bln ... it turns out that the USSR also had laws?

    The laws were more democratic than they are now .. Huge rights of the Top of the Council, the absence of the President (until 1989!), For example, the right to appoint the Government. In the ruling party VKPb-KPSS, the statutory principle of "dem- centralism". All leaders are elected and accountable to meetings and congresses. The post of "party chairman" is absent. Stalin did not hold any positions in the Government of the USSR from 1923 to 1941 ...

    BUT THEN WHY WAS HE IN FACT THE KING? Because in the "land of slaves, the land of masters" it cannot be otherwise. Whether at least the General Secretary, even the President, be any laws, EVERYTHING EQUALLY WILL BE A KING IN THE HEAD. These are the traditions of society, dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. Society has survived to the 21st century, and relations in it are like 300 years ago. You can say "Tsar and boyars", You can say "President's apparatus" ..... one hell. Hence the problems of society, and not because "Stalin was a Caucasian" and that he "was a tyrant at heart."
