owning a fancy car = you hate the poors

owning multiple mansions, palaces, generational fortune, having millions to even “donate” = lover of the poors

That first link is infuriating.

He then began to enjoy the good life just like the Tsars as illustrated by this photo taken at the May Day Red Army Parade in Moscow 1918!

Dude was a well documented workaholic to the detriment of his own health because of his commitment to the Revolution, but yeah this one photo of him being driven in a May Day parade proves that he just wanted to take toys from rich people and live it up.

the Soviet government passed one of its first acts ever, with the decree of 3 May 1918 that expropriated about 2,500 cars from the bourgeois members of society.

To give an historical perspective, this predates the October Revolution by about six months

lol

They seem to think socialism is a poverty cult

They only think about socialism in bad faith so its not so much about their honest belief about what socialism is/should be, but that if they believe X they can strawman and slander socialist leaders like Lenin as hypocritical and grifters.

If you’re poor, socialism doesn’t work because it makes you poor! If you’re rich, you’re a phony champagne socialist who’s betrayed the people!
