A common rightwing criticism of the USSR is to point out that US Firms built Soviet Heavy Industry, the implication being that the USSR and Russians by extensions don’t deserve any credit for the USSRs industrial might.
Right wingers especially if American have in their genes anti communism or anything left of libertarianism as evil, think house of unamerica activities McCarthy reds under the beds scare. Russia is equated with communism so one in the same.
Lots of info here also a huge lot of effort for an obscure topic as every new country steals from the old as did America and the cotton mills from England, Japanese vehicles and motor bike from England, China from whomever wanted cheap labour for the manufacturing requirements.
Ignorant people always have these irrational phobias/hatreds/xenophobia and Russia and Russians are an easy target for them.
If you feel the urge a dive into the period just before and after Lenin's death would be interesting from a Trotskyist, Stalinist perspective, keep up the good work doc.
Still it seems to me that there is overcorrection with the jewish question. While supposedly no one dared to call out " the jews " although everyone on X, on all sort of "conspiracy" circles and websites is writing about "the jews", none of them went to prison, now it is somewhat mainstream to think "the jews" are running everything. But no matter how mainstream it is, it still makes no sense. If "the jews" were running the Soviet union, why its worse now? Stalin actually worked with the Eastern establishment in the US who are much more progressive it seems. The British hated Russia as they hate them now and used their nazi puppets, then their jewish puppets to destroy Russia. But here is a problem. Now the jewish-russian-british mafiozos are somewhat family in looting but they hate each other. Putin wants all of them to be one big family but they don't. Its a problem.
The JQ, especially if we are talking about over a hundred years ago can't be made sense of if the AQ (Anglo Question) isnt put in perspective as well. Back then it would be hard to say the jews dictated everything in the Western World as what we call the Anglo Establishment also had lots of influence as well and they didn't see eye on to eye on absolutely everything. The intervention in the Russian Civil War would be an example of that, the Anglos really did want the Whites to win like the Brits did, or they were indifferent like Wilson was. One thing that the Anglos and Jews were in alignment 100% about was a general hatred for Russia. As for the early USSR the Jewish overrepresentation in the Politburo, Central Committee and especially the NKVD is just a historical fact but its also a fact that within a few decades most of them had been killed and the jews had to go back to the drawing board in the USSR whereas in the West their fortunes steadily rose as the Anglos kept surrendering their influence. This loss of Anglo influence coincided with suddenly "anti communist" jews fleeing the USSR and playing on the anti Russian/anti commie sympathees of the Anglo Establishment. Stalin imo is just an exceedingly rare case of a historical figure that briefly changed the trajectory of world history and probably what made him uniquely suited to this was that he was a bonafide real gangster himself and thus he "got" the jews very quickly. While he wasn't based and red pilled he did understand organised crime dynamics and he was a genuinely intelligent man, so he managed to straight outplay the mainly jewish old Bolsheviks and consequently set back their plans for Russia by a few decades.
The whole topic is very complex and while Western Rightwingers tend to be more correct than Western Shitlibs in general the USSR topic is one where Rightwingers tend to insist on exceedingly dumb cookie cutter narratives because they aren't comfortable with the idea that the West was no more morally pure than the USSR and this is where Russian Nationalist and their Western Counterparts part ways. Western Rightwingers will often say "you can be pro Stalin in the West but not pro Hitler" and this is true of course but only in a narrow context, you can only be pro Stalin when you are discussing WW2 specifically. We aren't going to see any Western Politicians or University Professors saying that Stalin was right to deport the Checnyans and Crimean Tartars or that his proposal to re-unite Germany after WW2 was a good call anytime soon. We aren't going to hear any Western politicians or Professors saying Stalins approach to holding Government accountable, as in shooting corrupt officials and imprisoning their families is correct anytime soon. Basically the USSR is to Western Rightwingers what Nazi Germany is to shitlibs and this is what prevents Western Rightwingers and Russian Nationalist from understanding eachother completely and its the Western Rightwingers who are at fault. Even Russian Nationalist who don't like the USSR can still make a balanced analysis of its achievements and faults while simultaneously not believing NS Germany was the eviliest thing thats ever existed. Western Rightwingers are utterly incapable of this and addressing this phenomena is sort of the point behind my USSR posts.
All Right wingers are more or less retarded. How come that now Russia has the number of western corporations *1000 compared to the Soviet union and they are not building any "industrial might"? M? Anyway. Thank you for not trying to gaslight and write bs to your readers. Very rare thing.
