- How to defy Marx and bring socialism to the Russian Empire? In this video, we explore how Lenin planned to build a Bolshevik movement that could overcome not just the Czar, but also traditional notions of how social movements were to be conducted. Lenin's ideas on manipulation, organization and ideology would not only serve him well during the actual Revolution, but also made him a pioneer of strategy in the industrial age.

What you described in this video is mostly Metapolitics - strategies of Cultural Hegemony, that would be properly formulated some time later by Antonio Gramsci (Italian communist).
His tactics can be applied to any ideology, even completely separate from communism
Yess!! Discovered this channel last week and thought that it was dead! Welcome back
So glad you're back!

YES MY BOY IS BACK, I’m so glad that you’re posting again because you’re like the only one on CZcams doing these kinds of videos and I love them
On my second watch. You are very good at making these. It's difficult to grasp how politics actually happens, its content. You make it very approachable and understanding l.
Brilliant, great seeing you back man. Looking forward to watching this 🎉
You're back!
Absolutely incredible video, we're really happy you're back!
Any thoughts on making a study on mao's revolution? While I understand you might not want to make too many videos about far-left movements, I feel like the Chinese revolution is much less discussed in how it seized power and established the path the world's 2nd strongest country would be shaped, and I would love to see your analysis and telling of it!
Oh yes, maos Revolution c.1927-36 is going to be the final video in this series.
@@StrategyStuffon’t forget to add info about him being an MI5 asset, Ratschild East India Co funding, and his top general and the latter’s army being Jewish and Mao giving them Shanghai, which still has the largest diaspora inside China.
@@StalinLovsMsmZioglowfagz What are you talking about? Mao's top general was not Jewish, it is debateable whether his top general was Lin Biao, Zhu De or Peng Dehuai but regardless all are just Chinese.

EDIT: I’ve always wondered why many charities posited “awareness” as their main drive toward issues; well this just neatly tied that knot.
EDIT: Annnnd the drive for ideological purity leads via human nature to totalitarianism

Generic comment about the joy one feels the hiatus is over.
And now the Term "Raising Awareness" gets a completely new connotation and context.
Man do you have like Twitter or a Telegram page where we can remain updated on your videos or just hear from you a bit more frequently?
25:19 describes the Chicago machine quite well with its patronage system
Pls do a video on anything Napoleon related someday
Really shows just how brilliant as a revolutionary Lenin was, and how much he was a tyrannical zealot he was
Montemayor and now you? This is such a good week. Welcome back!
Wow. Going into this video, I expected another faux history drenched in Cold War talking points, as is the norm on this platform.
But I came out really impressed. The quality of this video is stunning, thank you for your work!
A big surprise for sure, but a very good one
This really makes it easy to point out and name communists in the office. Pretty concise
The return of our modern -king- prince. Welcome back.
"In other words, the living, vital truth of social and economic well-being will become a reality only through the zeal, courage, & the uncompromising determination of the intelligent minorities, and not through the mass."- Emma Goldman
Tbh, without WW1, I think Lenin's strategy could never have worked
I think you're correct to an extent - but it is also important to ask why, in the circumstances of WWI, that it was Lenin who succeeded and not the Mensheviks etc. Truth is that Lenin's strategy put the Bolsheviks in the best position to exploit this sort of 'Window of Opportunity', whether WWI or some other anti-establishment event.
@@StrategyStuff Well, yeah
There's no denying Lenin's success, and you don't reach that level of success without doing some things right. His analysis is quite interesting (learned a lot about it, btw, thanks) and they were ready to strike and just better than everyone else at that point.
I was just wondering how much you can really take away from it all. I guess thise old roman adage will always hold true :
Fortune favors the Bold.
Your videos have helped me a lot with worldbuilding and story creation in general, nice to see you again!
HE'S BACK
Yay!!!!! You're back :)
