@HeavenlyPossum Ex-Marxist #Mussolini and his Italian fascist movement "had earned eternal merit" for saving #Italy from the #Bolsheviks. That is merit indeed. But #Mises emphasized that #Fascism uses violence as a means to archive its ends, and that is bad. So only little boys infected with socialist #propaganda can blame Mises for his words. @RD4Anarchy

@alienghic @hannu_ikonen after the #bolsheviks decided set a stop to the true #communists in #Kronstadt in 1921, there not been anything that resembles of #communism

The #sovietrussia was an #authoritarian state pretending to follow #socialistic norms.

@homohortus

There was much duplicity and a lot of thievery between #Russia, #Britain, and #France.

Russia hosted the #ThievesBanquet where the 3 parties carved out the #MiddleEast.

#SykesPicot was another secret agreement between Britain and France, but it was ratified by Russia and became a tripartite agreement.

However, Sykes-Picot was never implemented as the #Bolsheviks quit claim to the region and blew up the Sykes-Picot Agreement when they took over Russia.

He got out in 1990 & told me some stories involving that.

It's clear that his experiences have made him leary of anything authoritarian, fascist or Bolshevik.

That FDR capitulated too much to the Soviets and could've prevented China from become a superpower early on by focusing on the Soviet Union. They had so many spies in defense and government, even as early as the 1930s, that allowed them to advance capabilities way quicker than they should have.

The UN veto should've never transferred to Russia & therfore time to start a new one. Might at well expand NATO into a new version & just not invite Russia. League of Nations > UN because the LoN had no teeth.

UN was able to enforce Korea, but could not occur now. All the proof you need.

He said the Allies missed a big opportunity in landing in Balkans instead of Normandy & put pressure on the Soviet Union. He said that Churchill was on board with that plan.

There were numerous "old #bolsheviks" that actively conspired against the construction of #socialism and sought to seize power for themselves and enact their own political agenda.

#JosephStalin's wing of the party struggled hard against the #revisionists and #opportunists and class-alien elements. He wasn't the only one struggling, it was a group of tendencies that struggled against one another.

#SykesPicot Agreement to redraw the map of the #MiddleEast

Both #Britain and #France coveted #Palestine

Both agree to government by #InternationalCondominium

#Russia endorsed Sykes-Picot Agreement, which then became a tripartite agreement

ALL 3 parties kept the Sykes-Picot Agreement secret from Grand Sharif #Hussein, which created much ill-will and distrust

Sykes-Picot Agreement was never Implemented after #Bolsheviks renounce claims on #Constantinople & expose the secret treaties.
