My surname translates as "Head of the fortress." My family received it 1500 years ago. Here are the remnants of that very fortress, which still stands on my family's estate." https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/14avc2d/my_surname_translates_as_head_of_the_fortress_my/With both Anti Communism, Historical Revisionism, Classism and other things - like shilling for their shop, but also:
i actually am a professional knives/swords maker.
Edit. For those who read. It used to be an estate. Now it is a half acre piece of land in the middle of nowhere. I am not rich and never was. I barely make a living. So stop asking me about being rich and having priveleges and being white and stuff. I work since i was 14. I am not a spoiled kid who makes knives because he doesnt need to work. It is a very hard job. A manual job and quite dangerous for your health.
Being both entitled and not understanding themselves as part of the working class (which he might be, but as likely might not be). If he has to work then the job that is bad for his health means he ought to be in favour of Soviets and working movements, instead of jerking off to the fantasy of owning serfs.
In the profile you also find his reactionary crumbs here and there.
How did your family managed to keep the land under Stalin?
My great grandfather was a duke. So yea, it was tough. But he also was outstanding army officer. They let him live because the USSR needed proffesional officers. As a result he was at war for 8 years. From the start of the finnish war till the end of the WW2.
Congrats to your great grandpa for surviving the officers Purge, then!
Well. Its a miracle he survived. First time commies came he said to them fuck you. They spared him. During the war he kept telling them fuck you but he was so loved by his sokdiers nobody dared to kill him. After the war they offered to get a communist party membership. He replied - fuck you. He was saved by the fact that it was impossible to execute someone with so many medals and heroic deeds. But again, it was Georgis. If it was Russia - hero or not, he would be dead.
Maybe Stalin being born in Georgia may have helped too?
Stalin hated Georgia. And since left it never ever considered himself one.
Oh right, i never knew that!
As well as:
They took 95%. The remaining 5% was left because the family was large. Plus my grea grandfather was not just the only literate man and officer there but also the only veterinarian
Communists and political officers famously didn't know how to read.
Another commenter pulls a "my grandparents owned the egg monopoly in China" and claims his family owned a village in North Korea, which of course the commies destroyed, not some of the worst continued air attacks and artillery attacks in history:
TeamCoBlocks:
My family owns a huge portion of land, but it's in North Korea lmaomtsiri:
Are you joking?TeamCoBlocks:
No it's true, our family has a small town named after our family. But when my ancestors moved to the south during the border thing, they no longer were able to access it (obviously lol)
So out there there's a small town probably got demolished in north korea that is or once was a town owned by my family.
It's really nothing to brag, it's just another massive L taken from my Korean side of the bloodline.At least one person did try to post a bit sensible things and questions that OP's common claim of feudal ancestry:

This is cool, but I am into this type of stuff and the tower dates to the mid 18th century. It was pretty easy to just google this with the village name you gave.
This tower is NOT 1500 years old.
But your family name could be because it’s a job title that’s been used since the 5th century, similar to the European “castellan”, which translates to “governor of the castle”. If you could actually trace the our family back to the 6th century, your ancestors would have been contemporaries of Justinian, the ruler of the East Roman Empire.
Anyway, the tower is part of a fortification owned (originally) by a Georgian noble family, the Amilakhvari family, whose males were princes. Their name roughly translates to “princely horse masters”. They took that name in after abandoning their original name, Zevginidze.
I do not doubt that that’s your family’s estate but I doubt that it’s been in your family for as long as you make it out to be, which would be before it even existed.
My wife’s family is over 1000 years old and their family’s lands and castle is still owned by the main branch of the family (actually her great-cousin, who is a duke).
Families that are this old sometimes are named after the medieval offices they held, but not always.
But in the end they, too, are feudalist shill for his wife's feudal interest.
