Soviet Novocherkassk massacre

[Otis Mayfield]

The Soviet Union was supposed to be a worker's paradise.

In the beginning, the workers had some input. At least during the Lenin years.

During the Stalin years, that was quickly taken away. The unions became mouthpieces for the communist party.

And then we have the People's Army slaughtering the proletariat in the streets:


The Novocherkassk massacre (Russian: Новочеркасский расстрел, romanized: Novocherkasskiy rasstrel) was a massacre committed against unarmed protesters on June 2, 1962, in the Russian city of Novocherkassk by the Soviet army and KGB officials.[1] A few weeks earlier workers organised a labor strike at the Novocherkassk Electromotive (Electric Locomotive) Building Factory (NEBF).

"Information from a variety of sources is more or less unanimous that some seventy or eighty people were killed".

Arrests, show trials and cover-ups ensued: more than 200 were arrested; seven people were convicted and sentenced to death over various "crimes" such as "mass disorder" and approximately hundreds of others were imprisoned up to 15 years (terms of some of which were later reduced);[5] news about events never appeared in the state-controlled press and they were held secret up until 1992.[6][7] The 26 dead were secretly buried by KGB operatives in false graves which were never disclosed to relatives until June 2, 1994 when all bodies were discovered and reburied at the official memorial.

I see you didn't read my link.

What are you, in your twenties, thirties?


It has nothing to do with nationality. It has to do with human nature.

Never were taught any Plato huh?
You're idealism would be cute, adorable, really. If it wasn't so utterly dangerous to the republic.

It reminds of the tulsa massacre of blacks. Republicans are still proud of that.

 

[rupol2000]

In fact, this is a lie, they were killed in the 30s, there were mass genocides, and it was just a loosening of the Khrushchev system, it is similar to what happened in the USA, black riots in Detroit, and so on. They were organized by criminals. This was only one episode in a long series of criminal pogroms.

 

[rupol2000]

For the oppositional pro-Stalinist regime, it was advantageous to present this criminal riot precisely as the discontent of the workers. But this is nonsense, because the workers in the 30s and during Beria were starved to death and their children were raped in gulags, and no one rebelled, and there the usual inflation is offered as a reason.

 

[rupol2000]

In parallel with this, the left released the film "Welcome, or No Trespassing", where Khrushchev's initiatives were ridiculed. The film is also notable for the fact that it contained elements of children's softcore for fans of junior boys. This is very typical of the KGB.

 

[rupol2000]

in the 60s, there was a world coup, riots to undermine the center-right systems loyal to the United States were all over the world, including the United States, this is, among other things, connected with the withdrawal of troops from Vietnam, and in fact all this was a world revenge of the left. After that, the United States, before Reagan, also plunged into "stagnation", only there was still hippie disgusting and the like. At that time, Mods appeared in Britain, from which skinheads were later formed.

Now it all repeats itself in approximately the same scenario. But there is no guarantee of new Reagan come

 

[rupol2000]

Khrushchev, by the way, realized in the USSR some semblance of a republic. He decentralized the economy, giving many powers to the regions, and the State Department lost control of the Soviet economy. And it began to grow at a frantic pace, was socially oriented (resettlement from barracks to individual housing, bread production, village electrification, and so on). He borrowed technology for the production of corn from the United States, this gave a big boost in agriculture. It was right politics

 

[rupol2000]

Now they represent all this in a negative way, as if the corn program did not bring results. And they don't remember the fact that he sent the first man into space. This is all due to the fact that they hide the alliance of the USSR and the US Republicans, and the successes of the time.

It is for this reason that they fan the Novocherkassk Riot and present it as a labor movement against the system.

This is in itself a blatant arrogance, because even if it were true, these are just a few people who were shot, and in the 30s several tens of millions died from the regime.
They suppressed demonstrations with tanks in Czechoslovakia

The leftists are great masters of sophisticated lies, and the people are paying for it.

I'm not surprised that a large country which loves its power kills people.

The US kills people too. Lots of people. Sometimes it'll pretend it's doing a good thing, other times you just get a change in personnel at the top and everyone goes back to being happy.

 

[Deplorable Yankee]

It could never happen here is going to show up on your doorsteps

 

[rupol2000]

This is the spirit of the time. These people were well fed and happy. There was enough freedom there. And after that, Stalinism did not return in its pure form, but the country turned into a trash heap for drunks.

 

[rupol2000]

In those days, they praised the feat of labor and romance. In stagnant times, the cinema was mainly drunk, swagger, a clever swindler in the image of Ostap Bender was implicitly praised. Immediately after Khrushchev left, all the swindlers were released from prisons. The left handwriting is immediately visible.

 

[rupol2000]

This is the spirit of the Khrushchev era
