It says "which elements of the bolshevik ideology are represented on the picture?". The one circled means antisemitism. In the same exam the actually antisemitic horthy-regime was referred to as "sustaining national and christian values"

    The Jewish bourgeoisie are our enemies, not as Jews but as bourgeoisie. The Jewish worker is our brother. ---Lenin

      woah lenin said this? I have to commit this to memory. I have some truly insufferable family who believe that all communists hate us (jews) and that I am a self-hating jew because I want universal healthcare.

        During the Russian civil war that followed the revolution (1918-1920), whatever area of Russia the Red Army entered, Jews were liberated from the control of the deeply anti-Semitic White Army. Lenin declared, "The Jewish bourgeoisie are our enemies not as Jews, but as bourgeoisie. The Jewish worker is our brother." Throughout the nineteen-twenties, the Soviet government genuinely attempted to treat Jews as an independent nationality with equal rights. The state financially supported a Jewish school system, a Jewish people's court, Jewish theaters, newspapers, magazines, and publishing houses---in other words, "a pro-Jewish policy unknown and hardly feasible in another country."
