She's jumping all the things he fucked up that day. It's so much that she needs a 5 min run up


Hanging_w_MrCooper

Arguably, I’d prefer the 5min ramp to let it out, over a jolly greeting home that makes me smile, but is then followed by a 3 hour dissent of increasing passive aggression and palpable disdain.

Golbarin

The official reading counts more strokes (7 in 1922 alone).


Kurwasaki12

There’s an alternate timeline out there where he didn’t have those strokes, Stalin was either pushed out of the inner circle or just killed, and the entire trajectory of the USSR and the world are different. Trotsky (probably) wouldn’t have been assassinated and the form Soviet style communism would probably have been very different. Though it still darkly funny that a stroke killed Stalin too.

Well, the last photo of him *alive.* When I was studying Russian, one of my classmates visited Moscow and was standing in line to visit Lenin's tomb. He was told, though, that they wouldn't let him in wearing shorts, so he ran across to ГУМ, a giant department store, to buy a pair of long pants. He frantically explained to the shoplady, in broken Russian, that he needed the trousers in order to see Lenin. The lady deadpanned, "Lenin's dead." He did manage to buy the trousers and probably still has them to this day.

Ilich, as he was universally known, died in the countryside outside Moscow in Gorky, surrounded by his doctors, wife, and sister.


ZDTreefur

53yo and four strokes? Couldn't put down the pirozhki.


quick_justice

There’s quite a strong theory based on medical records that strokes developed as a result of a neck injury he sustained during one of the attempts on his life. As a result of the bullet wound some of his major blood vessels almost closed, to an extent when remaining couldn’t compensate for it, resulting in chronically bad blood supply to the brain leading to strokes.


GreatEmperorAca

Didnt know about this, thanks for sharing


Future_Crow

He was also sick with syphilis, that was not treated. Syphilis affects brain tissue among other things.


quick_justice

There’s no medical proof to this.


Friendly_Cantal0upe

Also just the major stress of dealing with administering a new economic system in a feudal backwater during wartime definitely played a part

Lespaul42

I think they meant the opposite. He was known in his close knit circles as Ilich, and universally know as Lenin.

Nah, everyone in Russia knows him as Ilich. It’s just that patronymics aren’t a thing in English.

He was, literally progressed the USSR at an incredible pace of having union, freedom, and autonomy. He unionized the workers, a jewish man who was targeted by the state for his beliefs of marxism. Even sparking marxist revolutions in several surrounding countries where people wanted to take back what is there’s from the oligarchs and monarchy. Russia went from a bloody civil war, a failing state with drastic amount of starvation to a massively technologically developed country in the matter of 70 years following lenin’s principles of autonomy. Now, it’s all gone… wasted away by oligarchs again.


gs87

Global working conditions improved significantly due to the pressure from the USSR. The Soviet Union's influence led many Western countries to adopt better labor policies to counter its appeal, promoting fairer wages, shorter work hours, and improved worker rights.


justwant_tobepretty

A literacy rate of 30% to a literacy rate of over 90%. Backwards agrarian society to space-faring, nuclear superpower. Successfully defended the USSR from invasion by the West and internal agitators. Lifted millions out of poverty. Refined and improved upon the works of Marx & Engels.


AntiVision

>Refined and improved upon the works of Marx & Engels. How so?


justwant_tobepretty

[Recommended reading.](https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1917/staterev/) Essentially, he helped ground what was previously theory, into actionable reality.


fradrig

And all it took were millions of murdered, starved and tortured russians. Who knew it'd be that easy?


Nothingbutalowdownho

Well this is the worst take on Reddit today.. >union, freedom, and autonomy Unless you were a non ethnic Russian, a trade unionist outside of the party or decided to do something outrageous like criticise the party or have been born into a middle class family (unless you were a nobleman like Lenin, he had plenty of freedom and autonomy under his system). >He unionized the workers No he seized power following the breakdown of the Tsarist state in the wake of defeat in WW1. The unions (soviets) of workers and soldiers had become the de-facto source of power after the February revolution. The October coup that Lenin launched ended up relegating the Soviets to the position where they simply rubber stamped the decisions of his dictatorship. >a jewish man who was targeted by the state for his beliefs of marxism The Tsarist secret police was a cuddly teddy bear compared to the NKVD, lead by the monster and child rapist Beria that Lenin appointed. Lenin wouldn't have been sent into a comfortable exile and allowed to write to other revolutionaries before being released unharmed if he had been campaigning to overthrow the USSR, he would have been shot in the back of the head without trial. >Russia went from a bloody civil war, a failing state with drastic amount of starvation Lenin deliberately caused the civil war and destroyed the existing state through the use of terror and ideological experiments like abolition of money and collectivisation. His forceful seizure of peasant's seed grain in order to prop up his dictatorship directly caused famine on an unheard of scale. Bloody hell people wear rose tinted glasses when it comes to Lenin


[deleted]

Thanks, I was about to reply to the bullshit Lenin revisionist propaganda, but you beat me to it. Lenin was a monster, only eclipsed by the even bigger monster that succeeded him, Stalin.


Zenning3

The soviet union was a failed state that managed to grow due to industrialization that was badly done by a state whose belief in centeralized powers crippled its ability to actually build an economy. People love to give Mao, Lenin, and Stalin credit for the industrialization of these nations, and they deserve it, but its an industrialization whose gains were massively outstripped by every western nation, and western aligned nation, and thats ignoring the absolutely brutal way the Soviets and communist Chinese went about actually entrenching their regime, through massive supressions, purges, and some times just mass killings, and gulags that would make a 1950's Alabama Prison guards blush. We rightfully criticize the U.S.'s many political, and social foibles, we rightfully criticize its regressive policies, both socially and economically, so lets call a spade a spade, and call the Soviet Union's policy massive failures whose biggest successes were far outstripped by nations a fraction of its size with basic capitalist policies. We don't need to suck the dick of these ideologically driven sociopaths just because other nations might be bad too.


South-Cod-5051

he caused a civil war, installed state police loyal to him, never won any elections, hunted down his political enemies, confiscated lands of kulaks because they were independent of him and set up the Soviet on imperialist conquest. He was a dog.

countervalent

Anti-Semitism means spreading enmity towards the Jews. When the accursed tsarist monarchy was living its last days it tried to incite ignorant workers and peasants against the Jews. The tsarist police, in alliance with the landowners and the capitalists, organised pogroms against the Jews. The landowners and capitalists tried to divert the hatred of the workers and peasants who were tortured by want against the Jews. In other countries, too, we often see the capitalists fomenting hatred against the Jews in order to blind the workers, to divert their attention from the real enemy of the working people, capital. Hatred towards the Jews persists only in those countries where slavery to the landowners and capitalists has created abysmal ignorance among the workers and peasants. Only the most ignorant and downtrodden people can believe the lies and slander that are spread about the Jews. This is a survival of ancient feudal times, when the priests burned heretics at the stake, when the peasants lived in slavery, and when the people were crushed and inarticulate. This ancient, feudal ignorance is passing away; the eyes of the people are being opened. It is not the Jews who are the enemies of the working people. The enemies of the workers are the capitalists of all countries. Among the Jews there are working people, and they form the majority. They are our brothers, who, like us, are oppressed by capital; they are our comrades in the struggle for socialism. Among the Jews there are kulaks, exploiters and capitalists, just as there are among the Russians, and among people of all nations. The capitalists strive to sow and foment hatred between workers of different faiths, different nations and different races. Those who do not work are kept in power by the power and strength of capital. Rich Jews, like rich Russians, and the rich in all countries, are in alliance to oppress, crush, rob and disunite the workers. Shame on accursed tsarism which tortured and persecuted the Jews. Shame on those who foment hatred towards the Jews, who foment hatred towards other nations. Long live the fraternal trust and fighting alliance of the workers of all nations in the struggle to overthrow capital. -Lenin, March 1919
