It's a Pinko's Prerogative to Change His Mind

According to Nicolas Werth's book, "The Black Book of Communism", at the tail-end the peasant revolution in Kronstadt (1921), approximately 8,000 peasants escaped into Finland and when the Bolsheviks offered these individuals amnesty, those that did return were immediately sent to the Kholmogory concentration camp on the Dvina River where many of them had stones tied around their necks (their arms and legs were obviously tied as well) and were tossed into the river.......Note to self - don't trust the damned Bolsheviks.

That's the dominant interpretation of Marx at work.

A fate almost as bad as the reservation.

Marx said: "“Workers of the world, Unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains”

Trotsky was in charge of this. In his interpretation of Marx, the workers lose their chains and gain these stones around their neck.

Trotsky himself in a whirlwind of twisted and insane logic justifies this huge massacre .... one larger than the number who died in 9/11, or in Srbenica (to name recent atrocities).... in his own writings: "Hue and Cry"

in which he claims that the revolters were in opposition to workers, they were capitalists, and that the massacre actually saved lives. This last point is found in this concluding quotation:

"The Bolsheviks, fortunately, belonged to a different school. They considered it their duty to extinguish the fire as soon as it started, thereby reducing to a minimum the number of victims."

The "extinguishing" Trotsky urged ultimately claimed the highest number of victims in human history, by far, with the exception of similar efforts in China (which of course were inspired by the actions of Lenin and Trotsky).

He also openly speaks of the need to have such massacres to "pacify the peasants" as he writes attacking the very idea of calming disputes with peaceful means.

In looking closely at the words actual of this dedicated Marxist, instead of starry-eyed praise written by the faithful, one can see truly monstrous individual proud of the blood dripping from his hands.

To refer back to the discussion on RN's blog about whether Russia/the USSR would have been different under Trotsky than Stalin.... there is evidence that it possibly could have been even worse. I don't think one can casually dismissed this remarkable example of distilled human evil with saying that "he was no humanitarian".

Trotsky was the sword in Lenin's hand, and in the vast majority of cases, the necks hewn by this sword belonged to the peasant, the workers, and the lower classes.

Will: Trotsky belongs on the wall of your rogues gallery of ultra-butchers from a century ago, alongside Kitchener, Leopold, and others you have named.

I also found this description by Trotsky in his later writings, in which he described the early revolution period (the "revolutionary wave") using these words: "the finest sentiments of human solidarity". A man who thinks that mass murder and rape are fine sentiments is no hero.

In his later writings, he also implied that Stalin was not brutal enough.

I apologize. I inadvertently deleted all of the comments while ferreting through the idiocy, sock puppetry, etc.. I will try to be more careful in the future.

dmarks said...

Deleted what?

Will "take no prisoners" Hart said...

They were mostly wd comments but I thought that I saw some others, too.

dmarks said...

Well, I am seeing the ones I thought I sent. I hope that is the case with Les, BB, etc.

I suppose if you are always having to shovel massive amounts of bullcrap, you might accedentally toss out a gold nugget or two by mistake.

Les Carpenter said...

Guess you deleted mine. Oh well, I understand.

Sorry.
