“The same is true of the Bolshevik Revolution that overthrew the Czar and replaced him with the Terror of Joe Stalin.”
Heck, the terror of Vladimir Lenin in fact (as a matter of fact, Lenin practically set UP a large part of the terror, including Holodomor, if not implemented them himself, before Stalin took power. Molotov even indicated that Lenin was even MORE ruthless than Stalin).
The relative depravity of those two can be debated endlessly. Add to that unholy triumvirate the blind zeal of Leon Trotsky and you have three of the four horsemen. The ends to which they went in pursuit of their mythical utopia left a trail of gore and oppression the likes of which hadn’t been seen since Tamerlane.
