big-honk Worked closely with the tsar doing what?

"My great grandfather fled during the assault on Bastille. He was on a personal hit list by Robespierre because he worked closely to Marie Antoinette. Fuck the French revolution and fuck those who eliminated the legal divide between nobility and peasants"

fuck all the kids trying to bring it back. Legit need discipline.

0% chance this guy isn't using a euphemism to avoid saying communists make him want to beat children.

Least child-abusing reactionary be like

Also, post-Soviet boomers that are nostalgic for the USSR are kids now?

Lenin did nothing wro-

Lenin did one thing wrong

But I already thought that "The worst thing the Bolsheviks did was give Ayn Rand an education"?

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

😁

BTW, from an older comment of mine:

[...]

btw here is a step by step guide to Ayn Raynd’s life:

1: be born into obscene wealth

2: be 12, a civil war breaks out, flee to white-controlled crimea

3: the reds win, nationalise the fathers pharmacy

3.5: the reds win, without that she would have never seen a university from the inside

4: be 16 and among the first women to go to university

7: fuck off to the US to whine and cry

8: write incoherent, economically completely unfeasible, idealist defense of a hypothetical capitalism

9: profit

(this is shamelessly copied from a Reddit comment)

You forgot about creating an artist cult, fucking as many people as you can within it until you alienate everyone of actual influence, then die poor, only for the your philosophy and works to be taken up decades after your death and immediately mixed in with the Christianity you despised.

We don't know how many people communists killed, we only know that they didn't kill enough

My reaction to the post the pictured comment is under:

Photo of a feminine-presenting person with blue green hair walking towards the camera. The caption above reads: Me on my way to say nuh uh to a Ukrainian Sommer wojak whose entire family was murdered by Stalin in 1933

[–] reaper_cushions@hexbear.net 45 points 1 month ago (1 children)

As someone who’s family was expropriated by the communists in their country: good. Could have imprisoned my great-grandmother less, she really didn’t know where her uncle hid the family riches.

This reminds me of a guy I knew I college, he said his family hated communism because his great-grandfather was murdered by the Bolsheviks. He said he was just a simple carriage-builder for the tsar.

Reflecting on that anecdote, assuming it is true (that he was a carriage-builder for the tsar and he was killed by “the Bolsheviks”)… I suspect there was critical information that was left out. Likely, he was a supporter of tsar and fought with the white army or something along those lines, and was killed in the civil war.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm not saying it's the most likely answer, but it's also possible that he just died in the crossfire. If you have a job that is so personally connected to the Tsar himself, you're likely to be in places where fighting is happening even if you're a civilian.

I honestly think it's more likely that the Bolsheviks killed him deliberately than in the crossfire, but yeah the most likely guess is that the guy who was employed directly by the Tsar would fight to preserve the Tsardom, so he was killed trying to fight revolutionaries.

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

There wasn't much crossfire to be caught in around the tsar court, since it was mostly disbanded even before October Revolution.

Oh and carriage driver for tsar would be very likely okhrana agent, this was one of the favourite methods of being undercover in okhrana modus operandi, both for observers and bodyguards (the last one ever since Alexander II died in assassination in his carriage).

And I would have been born a privileged noble if it weren't for those meddling commies!

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 35 points 1 month ago (1 children)

was it perhaps anti-semitism czar?

[–] Rod_Blagojevic@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago

Antisemitism wasn't invented until decades later when Israel was created.

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 29 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Post a link, I just wanna talk

[–] Rod_Blagojevic@hexbear.net 26 points 1 month ago

I wish that the Jews of imperial Russia had the opportunity to beat his great grandfather to death. I wish we were still on reddit so we could get banned for inciting violence against his long dead great grandfather.

[–] gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net 26 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Missing the forest for the trees: I wonder if Lenin actually had a hit list or if that would be under Trotsky's responsibilities?

[–] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago

It would be under Dzierżyński's responsibilities.

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Military wise, i could imagine Trotsky being more involved with finding generals and commanders to take out during the civil war.

If Lenin had a hit list, it would've been full of people that annoyed him personally.

If Lenin had a hit list, Karl Kautsky would have died long before he did.

[–] Lenins_Sabocat@lemmygrad.ml 19 points 1 month ago

Lenin hit them with sick burns in his written work.

My first time seeing "tz" as a transliteration of Ц.

[–] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's used in German AFAIK and seems to me to be more accurate

[–] regul@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, seems like it's well-attested (and makes sense), I just hadn't seen it before!

"Tsar/czar" is a common crossword clue and it's interesting that there are two common transliterations in English (I think czar is far older). But the fact that there are already two very common ones and then this person threw out this third one was unexpected!

[–] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I do vibe more with the older "cz" for whatever reason, but ye, "tz" isn't commonly used in English AFAIK

[–] tricerotops@hexbear.net 18 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

My great grandfather was a fr*nchman who liked to fuck. My grandfather never knew his name. I hate the fr*nch now for having such loose morals.
