Or maybe you cannot explain what happened on half of continent for 28 years with 5 sentences and state it was simple. Has Lenin been armed gangster, he wouldn't written a lot of books. Putin is less educated than was Lenin.
World can't come in terms with what was happening in russia it late 19-th and 20-th century. This is a shame, because we can learn a valuable lesson from those events.

He used his allies for advantage in a way that went way beyond the political norm of the time. And he laid the groundwork for the Soviet Gulag system. An apparatus that inflicted the equivalent of half a dozen holocaust's worth of human suffering over its existence.
