Also this meme of the Russian Empire being mostly illiterate peasant is a joke

The Tsar was already attempting to modernize the country

Except he was a kind man

A benevolent ruler

He did not force everybody to overwork themselves

Under the Soviet Union, Lenin was a moderate Marxist but progress of industrialisation was still slow

It wasnt until Stalin who wanted to push the limit of the labor of his comrade that industrialized the nation

Anyone under any economic system can industrialize a country when you start pushing man to the limit

And yet under the tsar, workers worked up to 15 hours a day and were the lowest paid in all of Europe and industrialization was going far slower than it did under socialism. The tsar, was not a kind man, hence why he was hated so much there was a revolution.The country was an absolute monarchy with a secret police that spies over everyone and would jail or kill anyone who opposed the tsar, peaceful protests ended in mass shootings by his guards, he forced his people into a meaningless war and gave them brooms to fight with, 95% of the agricultural land was owned by landlords, once socialism took power this land was redistributed. Most people were uneducated under the tsarist rule, socialism made education a free right, most people had horrible health under the tsarist rule, socialism made healthcare free and doubled the life expectancy. The tsar was not in any way a kind man, and certainly not a ‘benevolent ruler’ for as many crimes western propagandists attribute to Stalin he didn’t rule alone, he tried to resign four times unlike the tsar who did everything he could to maintain absolute power, he was elected democratically and the ussr’s constitution under Stalin was decided almost entirely democratically, he had one vote in the party that was made up of worker representatives that were voted on by the people. Compare that to the tsar who was merely a monarch who inherited his power.

You can say that Stalin killed his opponents in the purge,(I’d recommend reading origins of the great purges and the road to terror to see why this is false) although the primary evidence shows that criticism was encouraged under the ussr, that Stalin had only 6000 in opposition of him when he was elected and that most of the killings attributed to stalin during the purges were commuted by Yeezhov, whom was arrested for his corruption. You can say Lenin called him power hungry in his last testament but that was shown to have been false and even still it is. It as if he thought highly of Trotsky. In 2016 53% of Russian and 58% of Georgians said stalin had a mostly positive role in history, I doubt they’d say that about the tsar. Even with this I would never call stalin a ‘kind man’ or a ‘benevolent ruler’

The Tsar was a kind man

His wife was not

simple as

His wife was misled by a socialist as always

He’s a troll

Tech is a troll

The fuck

this isn't <#542037236053442561> can you stfu

Do u actually believe the Tsar was a great leader?

Yet ur capitalist?

Desmeon is a communist confirmed

The Tsar was a great leader, he was governing one of the largest empires

With that comes great responsibilities and heavy tolls

It is always their wives that cause trouble for the kings

The French Revolution started with Maria-Antonette being so out of touch with the people that people had her husband and her killed.

The Russian Revolution started with Alexandra being rejected by the Russian people as she was seen not even Russians and Rasputin made it worse by attempting to do ill on the Russian people

Even in China, dynasties fell apart simply because the wife refused to let her husband fuck his harem

Damn

Imagine getting cucked so hard you fuck up ur dynasty

rasputin be feeling up the czars young daughters like WHAT
