I will when I can. I'm learning so much. You're doing something important
Britain did not join to aupport russian ally. They joined because Germany violated Belgian neutrality
Ты лжец.
A sanitised version of the life, omitting a great deal that should have been included, for instance atrocities like mass killings, torture and famine.
FUN FACT: "One of those who cooked for Rasputin during the Great War was a chef at Petrograd's luxurious Astoria Hotel who went on, after the Revolution, to cook for Lenin and Stalin. He was Spiridon Putin, grandfather of President Vladimir Putin." Simon Montefiore, "The Romanovs", Vintage Books, 2016, footnote, page 600.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing
Sabbateans are a close knit group
Interesting. I did not know that.
Very interesting. I am wondering Putin's true opinion on the communism in the US/Britain and the WEF plans for world government. It seems strange we are fighting Russia unless we are just in the process of redistributing wealth. I don't know much about him.
@@timeforchange3786 his views on the subjects tou mention are well documented? Are you being sarcastic or have you genuinely just not looked into his opinion on the matter?
Hugely impressed by this clear, concise and well balanced program. Congratulations.
British documentaries tend to be of a high standard.

Marx described how a proletarian state would arise, not what it would look like. Lenin didn't abandon Marxism, but he was forced to "wing it" as the Soviet State was breaking new ground by simply existing
Well said
He was greedy and power-hungry
Eh not really. Plenty of despotic totalitarian governments existed before the cccp
i think most people perceive marxism as a fully fleshed out ideology with political and governmental prescriptions due to the fact that stalin called his "marxism-leninism" when in fact marxism is nothing of the sort. it would be more accurately described as marxist thought or analysis.
@@ISO8LegionaireYeah, Stalin was a piece of work.
Usually when there is a documentary about Lenin it fails to be objective and it is strongly biased against Lenin. This doc is an exception. It does present a balanced and accurate veiw.
Ленин знал отлично 24 языка
Why would you want a mass murdering nut job in good light?
Well..... its kind of difficult to look at the good side of someone who was directly responsible for the extermination of millions of human beings.
@johnstudd4245 Aren't you confusing Lenin and Stalin? Also ,the White Russians killed a lot of people too! And don't forget Czar Nicholas.
@@johnstudd4245Global capitalist imperialism kills hundreds of thousands every day through starvation or American bombs but libs never want to talk about that.
@5:20 the video mentions the writer Mikhail Bulgokov (sic) ... the reference likely is to the revolutionary anarchist Mikhail Bakunin (1814-76), rather than to Mikhail Bulgakov (1891-1940), who was obviously not a contemporary of Dostoyevsky or Kropotkin.
"The Master and Marguerite "
It couldn’t be bulgakov. He was born in 1891.
I learned about Lenin in high school as my country was then ruled by a socialist and learning the Marxist-Leninist political theory in school was a requirement. I was always fascinated by his ideology. However, I didn’t know about his childhood and overall upbringing until today. This is a well organized & informative documentary! Thank you.
The two things that really helped me put this all into perspective were 1) 50% of the Russian population in 1905 was illiterate and worked in agriculture, 2) This whole revolution happened while the Soviets were being invaded on 14 fronts at the same time and won
There's countless books on his childhood, I'm surprised people seem not to know about this in 2023.
@@raddkahnengels Incorrect on both accounts.
@@raddkahnengels 1) Much more then 50%. 2) Revolution happend during WW I, during civil war the country was invaded but there were not do many fronts of course.
@@andreyevsv I’m pretty sure he’s talking about the 14 nation coalition that came in the help the whites during the civil war. That’s why he’s saying 14 fronts.

"МНОГОКРАТНО ПОВТОРЕННАЯ ЛОЖЬ СТАНОВИТСЯ ПОХОЖЕЙ НА ПРАВДУ" В.И Ленин, а позже эту ленинскую фразу любил цитировать Геббельс
This video should indicate that a great deal of the footage of Lenin doesn’t actually depict Lenin, but instead actors portraying him.
Fab doc. One issue: Bulgakov is mentioned early on but he did not start publishing until after WWI with his debut novel “The White Guard”
This was an excellent documentary; step by step historical insight in to Lenin and what led to communism. Thank you!!👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
The documentary was good but you should do MORE RESEARCH. The Russian experience under communism is a helluve lot more than an hour long documentary. But I appreciate the videos author for bring this to light. It was WORSE than any of us in the west can imagine. Go read The gulag archipelago, by Alexander solzhenitsyn to get a true scope of the horror that was the USSR.
@@justinrichardson4456 If you are going to recommend a resource for studying a historical event, at least make sure that it's somewhat reliable. The gulag archipelago is at best a personal anecdote jumbled up with a collection of rumors such that it's impossible to distinguish what parts are personal experience and what parts come from rumors written by a fascist, at worst -and more likely-, fiction.
There was no “communism” in Russia. That’s what they hoped to achieve sometime. What they have built was a socialism. It was not a Russian but Jewish movement and eventually revolution supported by western bankers.
@@nemo2203 somebody who knows...
Extraordinary presentation. Many decades ago I pursued a graduate degree in Russian and Soviet history so I know a little something about Lenin. But your bio here expanded my knowledge. I would only add that there's a school of thought that Krupskaya had a significant hand in Lenin's final testament and I expected something on that issue. But overall I am deeply impressed with this superb presentation.
what's that meaning?
@@AtticusHatzis23483 It is proved that "the last letter" was not 100 % originally dictated by Lenin, but was slightly edited by (probably Krupskaya) in favor of Trotskiy.
@@TM-xq9ju Its more accurate to name it The Testament of Lenin. I got Synder's point, but I just want to know whether it is propaganda or fact.
Also Lenin & the Bolsheviks were to the right of internal socialist politics, once they seized power in 1917 they presented themselves as centrists within the Soviet Union but really they were on the right.
@@davebrayfb Politics is inherently right.
A great narration, unadulterated history, no political bias, only facts.

@@ThePeopleProfiles-Text I’m trying but I can’t get through. Says not able to deliver
I read the history of Russia since I can remember- this video filled many gaps. Thanking you for a very informative and brilliantly compiled part of history!
The very title is misleading - it wasn't Russian Revolution, it was *Jawish" Revolution, Lenin and Trotsky were only 2 of many "*Jaws* and the Bolsheviks were funded by J-ish bankers. Marxism itself is J-ish and hardly anyone talks about it because you can't ever talk about J-s.
Me comments get removed for spelling the word in such context.. But guess what, this platform is also theirs, same as Meta platforms like FB.
Calling Lenin a reactionary makes me doubt the whole documentary immediately
It’s a *very* lib coded documentary from the outset.
he quite literally was.. cope
@@spiraljumper74 cry
@@user-lq7nq1dg8u please illustrate how Lenin was a reactionary in any way.
So Hitler wasn’t reactionary to the social and economic death of Germany after WW1??
If it wasn’t a reaction then you try and find a thesaurus and pick one that doesn’t make people around you react with concern for you idiocy
Finally!!!! I was waiting for you guys to release a video on Lenin. Thank you so much!
Our pleasure!
More than a million people were killed for political or religious reasons during what is known as the Red Terror, between 1918 and 1922, the harshest time of Lenin's dictatorship. Many more were butchered & slaughtered on the orders of the satanic communist scumbag right up until his death is 1924.
It is
They did Stalin, makes sense that this was coming, bless.
This will, undoubtedly, be excellent
And so it was!
Resist the temptation to comment until you KNOW how excellent the video is 😅
This is a truly excellent program.Well organised and unbiased.
It's almost as good as Europa the last battle.
It's important to know what happened in history, thank you very much for presenting!
thank you, the summing up at the end was impressive
the first Soviet Constitution of 1918 was adopted;
instead of a unitary state, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) appeared;
the capital was moved from Petrograd to Moscow;
the abolition of estates, the Soviet man became a citizen of the republic;
introduction of the Western European calendar (Gregorian);
established 8-hour working day;
a regulation on the social security of the elderly and disabled was adopted;
laws have been passed to protect women's and child labor;
free education and free medicine were proclaimed;
the church is separated from the state and the school;
nationalization of banks, industry, railway transport, sea and river ports;
land socialization.
I wish it was just that unfortunately capitalism is nazism...😮😊
Women's suffrage has been introduced
Thank you for sharing and posting this informative video that explains clearly a complicated subject.
Excellent documentary - I learned so much. Thank you.
These videos give a good escape from the politics and economics of today
You mean the ones that look exactly like the ones in the video?! Because it's not just coming, it's here.

@@joeschmoe435 I’d say the US is much more of a slave colony, especially after the Declaration of Independence.
Let me say only one thing here. The video says that it was likely that Lenin did not know of his mother's Jewish heritage. But in a recent Dutch podcast I heard a professor of history say that Lenin was proud of his part-Jewish heritage, because he admired some intellectual Jews and had a high esteem of them. So my point is: so many things are said on the internet without any reliable source and many of those 'facts' or strong assumptions are not true at all.
he wasn't, this is (((nazi))) propaganda
at school we were told that Lenin's mother was half German, half Russian, Orthodox.
Really insightful. Thank you for the history lesson. This is a truly excellent program.Well organised and unbiased..

I'm thankful for this historical history,I hope you guys never stop posting all of this historical facts
Best book on this period is "Red Victory " by W Bruce Lincoln , about the civil war of 1918 - 21 , my favourite book of modern history along with Shirers "Rise and Fall of the Third Reich , Lincolns book is best for its character descriptions eg] Zinoviev and kamenev as "political Siamese twins" , the description of Dzerzhinsky is brilliant , the anecdote of the Llubyanka food enough to give one nightmares , " horse hair and hide with sticky floating globules all culminating in a foul evil smelling liquid " is what I can remember from reading it way back in 92 , also the discriptions of some of the horrible cossack attamans like Kalmykov and Ungern Sternburg not to mention the anarchist leader Makhno ,if anyone likes modern history books you will love this !

Another great book on this period is The House of Government: A Saga of the Russian Revolution, by Yuri Slezkine. It's 1,200 pages long, but worth the read if this period interests you.
Great documentary. It’s impressive Russia didn’t completely lose its sovereignty after what it went though in 1917 and 1918.
Exactly, and such danger is why Lenin launched the Bolshevik governmental takeover earlier than the time he expected for a successful capitalist stage, per Marx. Therefore, he skipped that stage and went straight to socialism. Lenin had feared that if the ill-equipped Russian Army would not be a defensive match against the Central Powers (Germany, Austria, Hungary) and all Russian lands would belong to the Central Powers.
very good and interesting presentation .
Thanks
Brilliant: clear, focused, and deep at the same time. Thank you!
Very educational and informative
Excellent and comprehensive. Thanks. Regards.
The people who did this documentary should teach how to do them to Deutsche Welle and BBC. This was an unbiased documentary.
Excellent. It has given me both an intellectual and biographical ground of Lenin. Thanks.
This was a very interesting documentary. I knew nothing about Lenin. Thank you for posting.
Talking about the leaders of this revolution is like trying to compare which level of hell each devil is responsible for.

In the viewing of this channel and it's expertly crafted content, we are experiencing a revolution as well.
A revolution of high quality content, that surpasses most of what has been seen on CZcams, in the past.

Superb documentary, very informative!
a detailed and comprehensive documentary, having all the necessary factors one needs to study Lenin as a revolutionary and theorist.
"[As Tsar Alexander] approached, the police arrested three young People's Will terrorists carrying bombs to perpetrate a second 1 March outrage. Five terrorists were hanged, including their bomb-maker, Alexander Ulyanov, aged nineteen, whose execution had a decisive influence on his younger brother, Vladimir, the future Lenin." Simon Montefiore, "The Romanovs", Vintage Books, 2016, footnote, page 470.
Thank you for producing a historically objective documentary. I’m so exhausted going through other channels with their blatant revisionism and neoliberal/fascist propaganda.
A few notable propaganda type errors here and there, however. One being the characterisation of the October Manifesto reforms as a stage managed charade by the emperor's court. Could not be further from the truth; Russian parliamentarianism, from 1905-1918, was actually further ahead in some aspects than in most Western European countries, during the same period. The economy also grew exponentially since the reforms were officially inaugurated. Most if not all of Lenin's grievances, were entirely ideologically based. Historical enemies of Russia simply used his many rantings as material for propaganda purposes, to discredit Russia.
Largest neo-fascist groups today are in Russia.
@markeedeep Nobody is discrediting his barbarism and his statistic passion to execute Nuns.
In all the Soviets executed 250,000 Clergy and closed 50,000 Churches.
I hear ya. Often though 1 man's objectivity is another man's propaganda. Still, one can usually find the presentation minus the bias.

yea there is way less information on the russian revolution in the west than on the german...there is a documentary every day on the nazi crimes..but not on the bolshewiks
Most Westerners don’t know much about Russia, that’s why you make a lot of ignorant statements.
@@vkrgfan even russians did the same😃
@@vkrgfan looking at the conditions of the Russian state, I wonder if the Russians know any better than us... but I must admit that Russia did an incredible job faking itself as a great power and a military behemoth. A steel and marble facade held together by duct tape: hopefully they will start focusing more on improving their federation, other than their appearance... otherwise, they will either fall behind or fall completely.
Well, there was Russian Empire, and it’s an accurate way to call this country of that time. It’s unprofessional for historians to call it Russia. Because that was another country and another thing.
Great video! Just wondering if you'd consider making videos of Kim Il-sung and/or Kim Jong-il at some point.
As im not Russian I dont know what others think but my greatest liking of russia is the Great classical music from the Great classical composer's of Russia and the novalist as i admire all classical music be it Russian or any other country

"true and proper Communism" = 100+ million dead in the 20th century. HTH :)
I learn allot---- well done!
Splendid narrative. Greatings from Zaragoza- Spain
I’m so 😊
43:54 "a new Ukrainian state" requires the extreme clarification that it was only the Lwow/Gallicia/Volynhia region that was ruled by the self declared state in Lwow. When Germany collapsed it became a very venal anti-Jewish anti-Russian proto Nazi state that had only 13% or so literacy. There were competing and even more vicious racist bandit states in Kiev (Petlura) and Zaporozyhe (the so called anarchists who were basically rapists and marauders), plus Tsarists still in Rostov whose first move was to attack northwest to reconnect with Europe.
The Lwow proto-Nazis were defeated by Poland. The others by the Tsarists. Then the Red Ukraine forces from Kharkov and the side-switching bandits - as at that time "Ukraine" did not include any Black Sea coast -took over from Tsarists whose last gasp was attacking Petrograd from Estonia in 1922.
The self-declared 'historians' of YT vids always provide for a good laugh,
Excelent video. It congregated many of my known facts about Lenin and added more on top to build a continuous image of him. By the way, what is the outro melody?
As usual, Churchill said it best, '...the Russian people's greatest misfortune was his birth. Their second greatest was his death."
Churchill was such a piece of shit, honestly. He had some real banger lines but the man was a dangerously belligerent moron by most trusted accounts and he probably would’ve been totally fine with the Nazis less their expansionist ambitions. I mean they had all the same views about the “lesser races” and the degeneracy of liberalism.
This video was excellent...especially in his and Russian relationship to Germany in the early years. The one thing it did not go into enough i feel was to mention the role of Germany facilitating his return to Russia and rise to power during the war
No. I yhink it was clearly stated enough that Germany did provided Lenin and some of his comrades a "seaaled train caridge" to go to Russia and the reasons Germans had in renedring this sort of assistance. This is enough on this issue in this film.
