What made the industrial and military prowess of Bolshevism so unstoppable?
>>18415527Stalin unironically
Yes, yes, well done Stalin, well done!However...
>>18415527American and British gimmedats
>>18415534Italians ultimately toppled the USSR if you really think about it.
>>18415527it got stopped by poles in 1920like everything that comes out of the great steppe bolshevism folded when it had to fight against civilized races
>>18415532Fpbp, he is literally the only man who could have made the Soviet union rise to #2 works power at the time. The Soviet union lasted as long as it did because of him.
>>18415527>Bolshevism>unstoppableBarbarossa, 1941Baltic states, 1917-1921Bekaa valley, 1982Poland, 1920Finland, 1939...Lol, lmao even.
>>18415527They weren't unstoppable. Just look at Vietnam, China and Afghanistan.
Wasn't the Soviet Union lacking behind the West for always?
>>18415527The USSR did something Americans could never imagine. It rejected belief in a fundementalist religious mythology, and gave the people the bare essentials they needed to survive.Imagine what could've been achieved if it were truly a socialist state instead just an atheistic social democracy with a personality cult...
>>18416185Russia went from full scale deeply entrenched medieval feudalism, serfdom, Christian fundamentalism, absolute monarchy... into a fully industrialised world leading world power, in just a few years.
>>18416191Russia was already in the process of industrialising, and was the fourth largest producer of steel by 1900. Where did people get the idea it was some collection of minor towns and rural villages lol
>>18416191That's true.But weren't they still behind the West?
>>18416191Wtf this isn't what Marx predicted.
>>18416193Because that's what it was. Prior to 1917 between 80%-85% of Russians were peasants living in rural settlements, they were indentured serfs who had to labour the fields for their lord whilst living in hovels.Only 4% of Russians worked in factories, in industry prior to the revolution.Google it if you want the stats are out there.
>>18416196It was well on its way to industrializing, its only natural it lagged behind on the periphery of Europe
>>18416193Because commies and modern day commie-lite activists in academia desperately need to praise the USSR as hard as possible to make their own beliefs sound less obviously destructive and self-serving.
>>18415776>>18415823>>18415882Nobody cares. Only WWII counts.
>>18416265>Summarise American education in 5 words
Human lives. They simply threw human lives eagerly into the cost of industrial and military progress.
