Lenin was not really the main guy of the revolution before it was over. He was living in Finland and later in Switzerland. He came to Russia after the Tsar was crushed. It is the same thing after almost every revolution. The people rise up,remove a tyrant, just to let some other power hungry tyrant take over. The same happened in Iran. 🤷♂
Don’t we just “loooove” the socialists and Bolsheviks… tyrants one and all. I give Fanny Kaplan all the credit for having the bravery to try to fix the problem she had helped create.
That's the thing with revolutions. It's easy to see the faults of others, especially when they're doing something as hard as running an empire. But when you overthrow them and take their place, you find out just how hard it is to impose the law and actually make any reforms, especially since you probably don't know of any other way to govern a people than the same way the last government did. In fact, Dinesh D'Souza claimed that the American revolution was the only successful revolution in human history-the only one that actually created a system better than the one it replaced. I had never thought about that before, but it occurred to me that I still don't know of any other successful regimes that came through a revolution.
Something I have to keep reminding people is no one went directly from tyrant to democracy. It’s slow and arduous. Even America which began as a democracy, was only in that position because of the social and political changes that had occurred in England and France over the previous 500-700 years. Many prominent American presidents including FDR site the magna carta as the basis of the USA constitution. There’s a world of difference between the Magna Carta and the constitution, but the carta was the first document to start the journey to democracy. It’s the first document to lay down the law and clearly state that even a king or queen is bound by the laws of the land and not above them and it also clearly states that heads of state can’t impose ridiculous taxes on the people. So it’s not weird that people tend to replace a tyrant with a tyrant, because it’s often the next best thing in the eyes of the people. it’d be a lot weirder if they replaced a tyrant with a functional democracy.
Yes the Tsar was arrested by the democratic government. Makes one wonder if the banks created communism. It's exactly the same as the tsarist regime except larger.

Funny old world, she didn't do it as a 'good deed', but because, like all communists, nobody ever does communism the way any other Communist believes THEY would do it. Inevitably that ends up with assassination and an even harsher form of communism &, true to form, the USSR ended up with Stalin, who killed likely in excess of 100 million people, after the vilification, murder, expulsion of the farmers, along with the abuse & rape of their wives and children, leading to even more suffering of the people. Communism rules, let's put the WEF, along with Bill Gates and his eugenics-loving chums in charge of it this time, I'm sure they can do 20 to 30 times better than the paltry 100 million or so Stalin managed - they got big pharma primed already!
I disagree that it was a good deed ,under communism Live gt better for most russians , no way n this earth could a non communist system have beaten the Germans, however crap that central planning might be in providing consumer goods ,in wartime it saved the country
You failed to mention that Lenin was an agent of the Germans, who, being at war they could not win with Russia, decided to finance a civil war in order to destabilize and weaken Russia. That's why Lenin was brought by train from Switzerland through Germany in order to enter Russia from Finland.
Lenin was a zionist, (aka a communist) as were almost all of the Bolshivics that muredred the russian royal family. Stalin was their puppet front man. Lenin was the enemy of all free nations, including Germany.
I’m not so sure that “Germany couldn’t defeat Russia” is so accurate. The imperial Russian army was in shambles by 1917. With the general strikes kicking off late 17 it’s doubtful the Russians would have been able to maintain the war effort even if desertion didn’t ramp up. For sure though the idea of funneling revolutionary movements in Russia were a part of German desperation. Kind of like setting your neighbors apartment on fire cause you want them out.
I don`t think Lenin was an agent for Germany. Germany didn`t mind him though. This is how it works: If a superpower can help to create chaos within their enemy countries, they will. Do you know that before WW2, Stalin executed many of his high ranking officers? Thousands of qualified officers were executed by Stalin for "conspiracy and treason" and they were replaced with non qualified "boot lickers". Russian divisions were suddenly lead by non qualified persons with no other skills than their political beliefs. The German intelligence had no problem to spread misinformation in the USSR to fool the paranoid Stalin to get rid of most of his military talents. Lenin lived in Finland and Switzerland because he had been spreading the communist idea in Russia. He run away so he avoided getting arrested by the Tsar. He was not the leader of the revolution though. He came afterward and made a coup of the coup.
Read up on that and you’ll find you’re missing the big picture. Who funded Lenin? Who funded the revolution? It wasn’t the Germans, it was the British and Americans
@@samg5463 Sure, Russia has historically had weak soldiers and bad organization, but keep in mind that they're still really hard to conquer simply because of the environment they live in. The Russian winter is death. Let's hope Ukraine can break that tradition, though. At least they have 21st century technology to see them through.
A great many people ended up getting a bullet in the back of the head during the time of Lenin and later Stalin. As a method of execution it was relatively merciful, getting it over with quickly and instantly. There are far more brutal methods of execution, sadly some still in use today.
Lenin was against what Stalin stood for, they had different ideas. "One distinguished historian who did differentiate between Lenin and Stalin was EH Carr, who described how Lenin’s regime encouraged the working class to take an active part in the business of the party and the nation. That position on democracy and workers rights’ was completely opposite to the dictatorship established by Stalin."
"BRUTAL" is not the correct word in any sense for this video title and yet, it's why I clicked the video so I suppose it worked. The video is great, just a poor title given that a bullet in the back of the head is a -hopefully- instant death. Totally agree with you
I heard prisons in Russia we're always brutal because of the weather and labor long before the Gulags became a thing. And worst case there could have been incidents where prisoners were abused by the guards or even other prisoners. The fact that she had the drive to do what she did was quite brave.
As bad as it had been, the bolsheviks made it even worse. If you read Dostoyevsky's account on the 19th century labor camps, one thing you notice is that food was much more affordable to prisoners than during Stalin's rule. The other difference was much higher output quotas in the Gulag.
buut they got more firepower around them so dont even try lol in this day and age u try to harm a political leader ur entire house and family will be bombed by a drone!
Her failed assassination attempt may have had unfortunate consequences. While Lenin recovered it is thought that the wounds were so severe that they contributed to his strokes and death a few years later. Then Stalin managed to seize power with catastrophic results. Lenin was no saint but it I think most authorities found Stalin much, much worse.
Lenin, after the Kronstadt revolt, gave in and allowed the New Economic Policy to be utilized. Which several years after Stalin took power, was considered an almost golden age by Russian old timers. Unlike Stalin, Lenin could learn from his mistakes and respond accordingly. Still Stalin did expand on Lenin's most oppressive policies. Like the Checka for instance.
Lenin was a German agent. Stalin may had employed brutal methods but he managed to return power to Russian hands. Without Stalin, Germany would had won WWII and most of Europe, and potentially the Easter US, would be under Reich control today.
@@neuro.weaver Yes. Germany financed Lenin's return (sealed train) to Russia after Nicholas's stepping down. Germany wanted unrest and civil war in Russia so Russia could be easy pickings. And Lenin was quite the coward when he thought his safety/ freedom might have been in jeopardy. Even leanient prison time. And those intense Russian winters could really break a Nazi.
I do believe the "Red Terror" started right after this. He was not the first Bolshevik to be shot at but his was the one that gave them the green light (if they needed any) to let er rip.
thank you, interesting story. it is sometimes said that the blood poisoning that leaked from the lead alloy bullets lodged in his body did indeed contribute strongly to Lenin's progressive collapse, both physical and mental.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn, who first exposed the horrors of the Stalinist gulag, is now attempting to tackle one of the most sensitive topics of his writing career - the role of the Jews in the Bolshevik revolution and Soviet purges. In his latest book Solzhenitsyn, 84, deals with one of the last taboos of the communist revolution: that Jews were as much perpetrators of the repression as its victims… Two Hundred Years Together - a reference to the 1772 partial annexation of Poland and Russia which greatly increased the Russian Jewish population - contains three chapters discussing the Jewish role in the revolutionary genocide and secret police purges of Soviet Russia.
@@jaccadee1120 Solzhenitsyn was a fiction writer, even admitted by his own wife. He was writing about fables discussed amongst his peers, not actual history. Facts > feelings.
@@jaccadee1120 Bolsheviks weren’t Jewish, those were the Mensheviks led by Trotsky. “Judeo-Bolshevism” is Hitlerite propaganda, which is ironic considering Hitler also admired Trotsky for his anti-Bolshevism.

Slight inconsistency...you mentioned that Lenin was shot by a "Browning" pistol and later Kaplan says she shot him with a revolver. I don't recall JMB ever designing (or at the least, it going into production) a revolver. Lots of small automatics, but no revolvers.
I was just googling that I'm not familiar with any revolvers designed by him either Only reference I could find was on a poster of Browning designed firearms displaying a Colt M1905 New Marine revolver.....but I'm 99% sure whoever designed that poster is confusing that revolver with Browning's Colt 1905 .45 ACP pistol which was a forerunner of his M1911 design
It's a British thing, using revolver to describe any handgun. Europe was flooded with Browning semi-auto pistols in .25, .32 and .380 made by FN in Belgium. One of these pistol set off WW1 when it was used to kill Franz-Ferdinand.
Back to "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". The bottom line is she was considerably more radical than Lenin. Today she'd have the full backing of Washington.
She was a long time terrorist What ever politic movement found her fancy at the time That's why she was sent to a labour camp in siberia for making bombs
I would prefer that the correct term of Communism were used at all times.. Socialism is Communism. The two are not distinguishable. "Socialism" is the nice word that Americans have adopted for Communism.
No. Socialism is the larger category. Within it are contained communism, syndicalism, anarchism, radical trade unions and free collectives. All strive, in principle, to replace capitalism with a society free of classes.

It is unfortunate that Stalin went on to further terrorize the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, but you can't blame that on Fanny Kaplan. I doubt she had the power to see the future.
Funny old world, she didn't do it as a 'good deed', but because, like all communists, nobody ever does communism the way any other Communist believes THEY would do it. Inevitably that ends up with assassination and an even harsher form of communism &, true to form, the USSR ended up with Stalin, who killed likely in excess of 100 million people, after the vilification, murder, expulsion of the farmers, along with the abuse & rape of their wives and children, leading to even more suffering of the people. Communism rules, let's put the WEF, along with Bill Gates and his eugenics-loving chums in charge of it this time, I'm sure they can do 20 to 30 times better than the paltry 100 million or so Stalin managed - they got big pharma primed already!
I disagree that it was a good deed ,under communism Live gt better for most russians , no way n this earth could a non communist system have beaten the Germans, however crap that central planning might be in providing consumer goods ,in wartime it saved the country
You failed to mention that Lenin was an agent of the Germans, who, being at war they could not win with Russia, decided to finance a civil war in order to destabilize and weaken Russia. That's why Lenin was brought by train from Switzerland through Germany in order to enter Russia from Finland.
Lenin was a zionist, (aka a communist) as were almost all of the Bolshivics that muredred the russian royal family. Stalin was their puppet front man. Lenin was the enemy of all free nations, including Germany.
I’m not so sure that “Germany couldn’t defeat Russia” is so accurate. The imperial Russian army was in shambles by 1917. With the general strikes kicking off late 17 it’s doubtful the Russians would have been able to maintain the war effort even if desertion didn’t ramp up. For sure though the idea of funneling revolutionary movements in Russia were a part of German desperation. Kind of like setting your neighbors apartment on fire cause you want them out.
I don`t think Lenin was an agent for Germany. Germany didn`t mind him though. This is how it works: If a superpower can help to create chaos within their enemy countries, they will.
Do you know that before WW2, Stalin executed many of his high ranking officers? Thousands of qualified officers were executed by Stalin for "conspiracy and treason" and they were replaced with non qualified "boot lickers".
Russian divisions were suddenly lead by non qualified persons with no other skills than their political beliefs.
The German intelligence had no problem to spread misinformation in the USSR to fool the paranoid Stalin to get rid of most of his military talents.
Lenin lived in Finland and Switzerland because he had been spreading the communist idea in Russia.
He run away so he avoided getting arrested by the Tsar.
He was not the leader of the revolution though. He came afterward and made a coup of the coup.
Read up on that and you’ll find you’re missing the big picture. Who funded Lenin? Who funded the revolution? It wasn’t the Germans, it was the British and Americans

Sure, Russia has historically had weak soldiers and bad organization, but keep in mind that they're still really hard to conquer simply because of the environment they live in. The Russian winter is death.

Lenin’s gradual decline health wise after the attempted assassination is brutal
But hilarious!
A great many people ended up getting a bullet in the back of the head during the time of Lenin and later Stalin. As a method of execution it was relatively merciful, getting it over with quickly and instantly. There are far more brutal methods of execution, sadly some still in use today.
They never got just a bullet in the back of the head. First they were tortured brutally
@@bambinaforever1402 I do not doubt that. I was only talking about this as a method of execution. Please do not straw man me.
Lenin was against what Stalin stood for, they had different ideas. "One distinguished historian who did differentiate between Lenin and Stalin was EH Carr, who described how Lenin’s regime encouraged the working class to take an active part in the business of the party and the nation. That position on democracy and workers rights’ was completely opposite to the dictatorship established by Stalin."
@Mick Lafitte There is ONE way...realizing your true nature.
"BRUTAL" is not the correct word in any sense for this video title and yet, it's why I clicked the video so I suppose it worked. The video is great, just a poor title given that a bullet in the back of the head is a -hopefully- instant death. Totally agree with you
I heard prisons in Russia we're always brutal because of the weather and labor long before the Gulags became a thing. And worst case there could have been incidents where prisoners were abused by the guards or even other prisoners. The fact that she had the drive to do what she did was quite brave.

As bad as it had been, the bolsheviks made it even worse. If you read Dostoyevsky's account on the 19th century labor camps, one thing you notice is that food was much more affordable to prisoners than during Stalin's rule. The other difference was much higher output quotas in the Gulag.

Its fake story. Lenin is a Jew. They are trying to hide the crime of Jewish in Russia by idolizing a fake story.
She shot him because she felt that he wasn't sufficiently communist. I'm not sure I'd call her a hero.
Lmao,clown statement
Her failed assassination attempt may have had unfortunate consequences. While Lenin recovered it is thought that the wounds were so severe that they contributed to his strokes and death a few years later. Then Stalin managed to seize power with catastrophic results. Lenin was no saint but it I think most authorities found Stalin much, much worse.
Lenin, after the Kronstadt revolt, gave in and allowed the New Economic Policy to be utilized. Which several years after Stalin took power, was considered an almost golden age by Russian old timers. Unlike Stalin, Lenin could learn from his mistakes and respond accordingly. Still Stalin did expand on Lenin's most oppressive policies. Like the Checka for instance.
Lenin was a German agent. Stalin may had employed brutal methods but he managed to return power to Russian hands. Without Stalin, Germany would had won WWII and most of Europe, and potentially the Easter US, would be under Reich control today.
@@neuro.weaver Yes. Germany financed Lenin's return (sealed train) to Russia after Nicholas's stepping down. Germany wanted unrest and civil war in Russia so Russia could be easy pickings. And Lenin was quite the coward when he thought his safety/ freedom might have been in jeopardy. Even leanient prison time. And those intense Russian winters could really break a Nazi.
I do believe the "Red Terror" started right after this. He was not the first Bolshevik to be shot at but his was the one that gave them the green light (if they needed any) to let er rip.

Not sure why being executed by a single bullet to the back of the head is considered "BRUTAL". As far as executions go, that seems pretty mundane.

The execution itself can be considered brutal
You do not think shooting somebody in the back of the head is not brutal?
It's always considered especially brutal when done by communists for some reason
Alexander Solzhenitsyn, who first exposed the horrors of the Stalinist gulag, is now attempting to tackle one of the most sensitive topics of his writing career - the role of the Jews in the Bolshevik revolution and Soviet purges. In his latest book Solzhenitsyn, 84, deals with one of the last taboos of the communist revolution: that Jews were as much perpetrators of the repression as its victims… Two Hundred Years Together - a reference to the 1772 partial annexation of Poland and Russia which greatly increased the Russian Jewish population - contains three chapters discussing the Jewish role in the revolutionary genocide and secret police purges of Soviet Russia.
