Comrade Lenin and Stalin thank you for your vote of confidence. The millions of Christian martyrs, most of them Orthodox, probably do not.

One important difference between the Soviet Communists and modern secular leftists is that the former maintained a prohibition on vices like pornography, drugs, and prostitution.

Soviet communists banned vices like pornography, drugs, prostitution, and sodomy ... IN THE USSR. They promoted these evils in the USA. The demonicRAT Party carries on their work.

“Poor Nicholas couldn’t fill his father’s shoes.”

He never wanted to, and never wanted to be czar. When his father died Nicholas was wholly unprepared to succeed him, and he openly admitted it. He is quoted as saying (paraphrasing) “I am not ready for this; I am not qualified for it. I do not want it.”

False dichotomy. Disliking the Romanovs in no way endorses the communists.
It sounds like you passed the Marxist dialectical course.

Once Russia's shambolic courtship with democracy has run it's course, there will be another revolution which will end when a true heir to the Romanov dynasty takes the throne.

I know because I read it in a fortune cookie.






It was a VERY LONG fortune cookie.

“These people were typical murdering Bolsheviks. Absolutely soulless.”

Todays liberals the same savages. While they claim to want to ban guns, they only mean to ban everyone but themselves from having them. They know we will slaughter them in war.

When you understand how bloodthirsty the marxist Left is, you’ll never give up your guns while you still draw breath. It would be like washing your hair in fresh blood and lying down in a cage full of rabid wolves.

Who financed Lenin and Trotsky?

http://www.wildboar.net/multilingual/easterneuropean/russian/literature/articles/whofinanced/whofinancedleninandtrotsky.html

The Rockefellers had given their financial support after the Czar refused to give them access to the Russian oil fields.

At least that is the image we like to see. But isn’t the reality that it is a more secular nation than the US that was addicted to the abortion mill far more so than us.

Pretty much, in effect, has already happened. The Church supports him, and despite the fact he has cleaned house (stole 30 billion of the peoples’ money) he is adored.

Yes, and read the accounts of Che Guevera, the God of the left. Sick bastard.
