Not much worse than selling oil, gas, timber, diamonds, etc. without any processing, practically without any benefit for the state, although the resources are the property of the entire nation, and also allowing radioactive waste to be buried on our land in order to earn at least some money. These are the benefits that one-party rule has brought us.

I read a historian whose judgments are trustworthy (because he describes events extremely impartially, provides links to publicly available sources, and these are reliable ones), and he writes that the fact that the Bolsheviks were brought in on the orders of the German secret services is beyond doubt.

Okay. 5 million were killed. 181 million are alive. That's 2.5%. But under Stalin, the number of people subjected to repression was:

If I misunderstood something, then you definitely need to express your thoughts more clearly.

But Lordesat, for example, believes that capitalism is better for the future.

That's right! We also need to take away the old ones. Otherwise, they are getting too brazen - they are telling the tsar-father how to rule the country. Let them go back to the stable, that's where they belong!

Freedom? In this country? Is it when the police beat journalists and you can only start a normal business if you have connections at the top? Freedom, democracy is not when you can call the great Putin a crook and a thief on the internet and throw feces at United Russia, it is something else.

Oh God, I must be dreaming – the great Alex has risen from the dead! This justifies the existence of any idiotic topic.
Alex, I'm with you in spirit – the ashes of Klaas are beating in my heart. :smile13:

How would you pull the country out of the mess of the 90s, you genius of politics and finance? Do you have a plan?

Why didn't we get along with Germany, if they achieved what they hoped for... Something doesn't add up!

5 million people lived at the end of the tsarist rule - how many were repressed then?

I gave you the population figures - give me the figures for repressions and calculate...

And what grounds does he have?... I'll give you a clear example of a real theory about a communist society - the ISS. "Peace" was what we built under communism, but these guys, under capitalism, can't even build one...

And do you want to live well, in a fairy tale, and at the same time only listen to yourself?

Who put you up to this? %)

No, but you don't need to be a chicken to say that the egg has gone bad, and you don't need to be a brilliant politician to understand that the country is simply being brazenly plundered.

If you had paid more attention in history class, you would have noticed an interesting fact – Germany also had a revolution, after which democrats came to power. And after them, even the fascists, which, although not a revolution, was also a very sharp change in political course.

What? Am I right in understanding that you're saying that at the end of the tsarist rule, 5 million people lived there?

Going through all the tsars is too long. Off the top of my head, I remember that the number of death sentences in political cases under each tsar was, at worst, several thousand, with the exception of Nicholas II, Peter I, and Ivan the Terrible. But even there, it won't add up to that many, definitely not millions.

And Lordesat will tell you that under communism, few people could afford even a "Moskvich," but now many can afford a very decent foreign car.

In the 90s, it was already looted by everyone who could, and now it's being looted because the country is recovering and there's something new to loot. It's better to come up with a plan – you don't need to be smart to state a fact...

Parties change, but plans, if they are long-term and for the benefit of the country, are unlikely to change.

Yes, then there were a century and a half of turmoil... Now you understand correctly...

These are the official, recognized figures! You don't need to say that there was no documentation on the "repressed" at that time, and look, a peasant was killed as an example and forgotten.

Furthermore, political figures who tried to change the country or pull it out of the hole through repression were also bloody tyrants, and would it have been better without them?

Yes, now there is a very large gap between poverty and wealth, and those who cannot afford even a "Moskvich" can afford to rob and kill their neighbor...

Now even prisoners live in luxury in their cells at the expense of the state, when they need to either be sent to a high-security prison or work in the forest...

Plan:
1) Introduce a two-party system.
2) If the authorities continue to plunder the country, organize mass rallies and strikes.
3) Allow the currently ruling party to solve problems, constantly remembering point two and the second party, which is just waiting for the ruling clique to make a mistake.
4) Enjoy life.
By the way, the country is being plundered not because it is recovering and there is something to plunder, but simply because it is so rich that even after so many years of intense plundering, it is still possible to profit from it.

Tell that to the communists, who abruptly stifled the nascent capitalism in Russia.

Unfortunately, no census was conducted in those centuries, so it is impossible to accurately judge the population, and no source will provide reliable information.

You underestimate the power of bureaucracy, and it was already developed in Rus' under Ivan the Terrible. I am not taking into account the lawlessness of the nobles, who tormented their peasants, because it was indeed not taken into account by anyone.

An interesting way to get out of a mess - ruining and condemning agriculture to famine and repression against the supreme command of the army. If we are talking about Stalin, of course.

This is already a question of their moral character.

How stupid I am, I should become a prisoner and just sit around, and instead I am getting an education.

Who I am is irrelevant, but I'll introduce myself to you. I'm Alexey, nice to meet you, comrade... or should I say, "redneck"?

Didn't they try to "program" the moral image in the USSR? They certainly did... And now they don't. Freedom is a double-edged sword in various hands.

Your writing is just vulgar, "comrade." You are outdated, both morally and perhaps physically. Totalitarian simpletons and others like them need to be eradicated at the root. Now, fools and the impoverished are voting for the Communist Party. The former haven't read history, and the latter hope that when Zyuganov comes to power, everyone will live equally poorly, just like they do. I think you belong to one of these categories.

Freedom within the law, I'll add. But you won't be able to bring back your "Soviet man" image.

Typical thug behavior, also known as "Russian oligarchs," or "corrupt officials."

and with corruption, many people don't respect the law

There's a carrot and a stick – if you're not afraid to use them, anything is possible
