The Bolsheviks didn't want people who got the message and shut up. They were extremely paranoid about them. They wanted people who had been raised in the new system or who had supported it when the choice was free. I don't think that self-interest is morally right as a guiding principle or that people who have written things as clearly "aware" as your comment have the option you're suggesting.

- whatshisface 2y agoSure, but nobody is going to read that comment and think, "this guy is a solid Bolshevik."
- stevenAthompson 2y agoYou're not wrong.
