Don't understand the point of these posts. So what if there was a large population of jews in the Bolshevik party, what does that prove? Also, Lenin was a lot more accepting of jews than Stalin. Once Stalin came to power the real purges began.

Well I guess the main point would be that the ideologies and motivations that created Lenin's Russia still exist to this day, and might be re-creating this trajectory in other governments.

Bolsheviks should be blamed though, not Jews. Because the overwhelming majority of Jews are not Bolsheviks.

However the overwhelming majority of high-level Bolsheviks are Jews, which itself is interesting.

But again, this is a condemnation of Bolsheviks, not Jews, because most Jews are not Bolsheviks. And I really don't like it when people try to "Blame the Jews" because it's a huge category. It's like blaming "white people" for USSR. It's much too broad and doesn't really actually get at anything useful.

Is it though? There seems to be way more condemnation of Jews in this thread than anything to do with Bolsheviks. Also, why does thr same exact post show up every week about Jews this or Jews that? I've seen this Jews + Bolshevik posted probably 5 to 6 times in the last month, why? Why when I go to the new section of this site it's looking more and more like a voat "ruck certain groups" circle jerk? Why does the creator of this site defend such posts and site this discussion pyramid when it's not being followed?

Look I'm all for a good discussion or debate but this isn't either of those. This is someone spaming the front page with what they believe or don't believe. Why not just pod this once and move on? Why is it the same exact post every week and why is it the same three people having a fingering contest about who can hate stuff more? And why are you in here defending it? This post isn't about Bolshevik s its about Jews & Judaism, for you to say otherwise is disingenuous and factually wrong. Read the comments my friend its all about Jews. This stuff gets boring & it degrads the site. This is just my opinion of course you run your site the way you want but I've come to respect you for what you are trying to do & seeing you defend this post makes me sad.

Yes, that's rather my point!

This post isn't about Bolshevik s its about Jews & Judaism, for you to say otherwise is disingenuous and factually wrong.

I didn't make the post. I am voicing the same angle you are, so I'm not sure why you're speaking as if I am the problem.
