I just discovered that Radical Reviewer believes the western account of the 1932 Ukranian famine, and I could not be more disappointed.

      The most infuriating part is if I point out the literal terrorist bombings that nearly killed prominent figures like Bukharin or the assassination attempt on Lenin, a ton of anarchists will reply that that stuff was cool and based without resolving the contradiction of the Bolsheviks betraying people who literally tried to destroy the Bolsheviks.

      The truth of the matter is the Bolsheviks didnt betray the anarchists, the anarchists who wanted a revolution and recognized reality in what was happening joined the Bolshevik party, and those who were more interested in idealistically fighting all states equally decided to attack the Bolsheviks and were therefore obviously enemies to be destroyed.
