Socialism starts with some fag in fatigues promising everything, and ends with some fag coated in riches leaving the country in his private jet.
So I don't know much about the USSR or Lenin, or even Russia pre USSR...

So then we can take the cold war at face value? What was going on with Afghanistan that they fought against the USSR?
Andrew Ortiz
Cold War was essentially an attempt to cow the war-torn West into submission by making lots of allies. Strength in numbers and so on, which is why USSR ended up aligning with all sorts of desolate shitholes like Congo and Cuba - it was a desperate, doomed gamble.
See above. One day, Soviets came to Afghanistan and said "we're going to build you these nice roads and homes so that you can trade with us". Afghanis said "ok" and soon ended up with a Soviet government, against which they immediately rebelled.
Tell an Afghan that the world is ending, he'll shrug and carry on. But tell him that he can no longer smoke opium, bugger little boys and stone women for showing some skin, and he'll reach for a gun. USSR didn't take the hint and started putting boots on the ground to contain the rebellion. 18-year-old conscripts who dreamed only of demobilization, hot food and Natasha's tits were flown from Russia and pitted against merciless guerrilas who knew the country like their own backyard.
The point is, no one has ever conquered Afghanistan. Genghis Khan executed every male above 10 years of age in the country, and still failed to hold it. Soviets never stood a chance. Neither do Americans, tbh. Once you guys are out of there, Afghanistan will return to its ways.
And now if you excuse me, I'm gonna get some sleep.

If you're going to waste a post at least provide some facts or number and bother writing more than a few sentences.
Even if it's pulled out of your ass that's fine, judt give me something for fucks sake.

What you know about Stalin advisor Kaganovich ?
Is it true that he is the only member of the "Stalin's team" who survived the Krushcev campaign of de-stalinization and "he came out completely dry of water" ?
