Read the transcripts. I promise you they were neither tortured nor was the confession forced. After the prosecutor proved each point, some of them confessed in hopes of manipulating the soviets. Also, I bet you never learned about the derailed trains or the miners who suffocated to death. THe difference is that in capitalist America, the supervisor at the mine gets to be free and run for the Senate. In the USSR, the workers themselves headed the investigation committee and did such a thorough investigation that they found the plot. Then, mostly it was people snitching on others in hopes of leniency, but because the USSR was a worker state, the people were like "F this shit" and they got no leniency.
Defined by Capitalists? I would highly recommend that you read some gramsci on hegemony!
"Show" trials = Public trials. Not "fake trials"
The Moscow trials are public record. Feel free to examine the evidence and the court transcripts yourself. They have been translated into every imaginable language.
Yes. Vasily something. Jude law played him in that movie. I can't remember his last name.
Edited. Thanks for the correction.
Actually, it was like very mcguyvered. The Nazis had cut off all the lines. So, it wasn't like he could actually communicate with anyone over there. So everyone kind of did whatever they thought was best.. and it worked out!
Here is all the contemporary working class POV on Trotsky . William Hearst and other fascists loved him as a cudgel against USSR.
The working class thought he was an enemy!
Heck, Trostky was the ultimate cuck. This woman literally slept with him yet she chose Stalin over him! Check out her Stalin portrait! Image
Usually, it was for protesting the government's policy of redistribution by exterminating all the jews in the village with a shovel!
Clearly, not authoritarian enough if he got shot by Blaise Compoare!
To install a different fascist!
In the old account I did. I am writing an article about it.. for about 6 months. I am basically missing everything between 1930-1950.
Stauffenberg was fascist. He was the NSDAP version of a #NeverTrumper.
