In the replies he reveals his great grandfather was THE CHIEF ASSASSIN AND SPYMASTER
of pre-revolution tsarist russia lmfao
i don’t believe this, this is a guy doing a bit, no one can be this stupid
Yeah. This comment is just
Never actually got his name. My dad had a bad relationship with his parents (one was which was the surviving daughter). So he didn’t like tslking about his family. I’d have to ask my aunt. I just know that he was a Cossack who had the role of Chief Assassin and Spymaster.
Pretty funny that this guy has all this legit animus toward communists but can’t even remember the name of the person the offense was given to.
So much for the tolerant left. Not even being willing to forgive the guy whose job was to personally have you assassinated and likely managed to kill many of your friends, family and associates.
My father was the greatest samurai in the empire. he was the shogun’s decapitator
Wouldn’t that title really compromise your role?
Spymasters are in charge of managing spies, not doing spying, usually.
So they would know who all the spies are. If anything it would be more important they have their identity hidden than any specific spy
No, if you’re a country’s spymaster then you probably have some spies that report directly to you, but there’s a chain of command and deliberately isolated cells that mean that the majority of actual spies are outside of the specific awareness of the spymaster, or aren’t identifiable.
Also, if the spymaster is captured, you’re already fucked because it means they were able to kidnap a top official from the capitol.
And if there is a chain of command with one person at the top, it’s probably a great deal of effort to go through the theater of trying to conceal to ultimately keep a secret that isn’t very difficult to figure out because the spymaster still needs to be working in constant active collaboration with various officers, etc. Also, the title usually isn’t public-facing anyway, not that it really matters.
You seem to know a lot about being a spymaster…
I have brainrot from reading and listening to stuff about the NKVD, CIA, and so on.
Lol so his dad likely cut relations with his granddad because he likely was an asshole but he is uncritically defends him lmao.
The communists killed my grandfather just because he disagreed with them politically and was an obergrupperfuhrer in the SS

A lot of gusano failchildren and grandchildren are like this. They’ve seen their parent/grandparent as a “kind and good” person, because they are nice to them and so take their stories to heart about how much better things would’ve been if they got to remain the rich and powerful scumlords before communism ruined everything. They’ve grown up with this idea, internalised it, and most people in the west have such a knee jerk “communism bad” response that they almost never actually receive pushback for it.
I imagine their dads are like cotton hill and they have daddy issues.
They’ve seen their parent/grandparent as a “kind and good” person, because they are nice to them
This guy’s even worse. They had zero relationship with the reactionary ancestor, to the point where they don’t even know his name. They’re just using abstract family history to justify their anticommunism.
Holy shit you can’t make this up
Worked closely with the tsar doing what?“My great grandfather fled during the assault on Bastille. He was on a personal hit list by Robespierre because he worked closely to Marie Antoinette. Fuck the French revolution and fuck those who eliminated the legal divide between nobility and peasants”
fuck all the kids trying to bring it back. Legit need discipline.
0% chance this guy isn’t using a euphemism to avoid saying communists make him want to beat children.
Least child-abusing reactionary be like
Also, post-Soviet boomers that are nostalgic for the USSR are kids now?
We don’t know how many people communists killed, we only know that they didn’t kill enough
And I would have been born a privileged noble if it weren’t for those meddling commies!
My reaction to the post the pictured comment is under:
Lenin did nothing wro-
Lenin did one thing wrong
But I already thought that “The worst thing the Bolsheviks did was give Ayn Rand an education”?
i’ve actually never heard that one before
😁
BTW, from an older comment of mine:
[…]
btw here is a step by step guide to Ayn Raynd’s life:
1: be born into obscene wealth
2: be 12, a civil war breaks out, flee to white-controlled crimea
3: the reds win, nationalise the fathers pharmacy
3.5: the reds win, without that she would have never seen a university from the inside
4: be 16 and among the first women to go to university
7: fuck off to the US to whine and cry
8: write incoherent, economically completely unfeasible, idealist defense of a hypothetical capitalism
9: profit
(this is shamelessly copied from a Reddit comment)
You forgot about creating an artist cult, fucking as many people as you can within it until you alienate everyone of actual influence, then die poor, only for the your philosophy and works to be taken up decades after your death and immediately mixed in with the Christianity you despised.
I love that she proclaimed smoking cigarettes to be Objectivist. a complete joke of a person
That explains why smoking is a feature in BioShock.
This reminds me of a guy I knew I college, he said his family hated communism because his great-grandfather was murdered by the Bolsheviks. He said he was just a simple carriage-builder for the tsar.
Reflecting on that anecdote, assuming it is true (that he was a carriage-builder for the tsar and he was killed by “the Bolsheviks”)… I suspect there was critical information that was left out. Likely, he was a supporter of tsar and fought with the white army or something along those lines, and was killed in the civil war.
I’m not saying it’s the most likely answer, but it’s also possible that he just died in the crossfire. If you have a job that is so personally connected to the Tsar himself, you’re likely to be in places where fighting is happening even if you’re a civilian.
I honestly think it’s more likely that the Bolsheviks killed him deliberately than in the crossfire, but yeah the most likely guess is that the guy who was employed directly by the Tsar would fight to preserve the Tsardom, so he was killed trying to fight revolutionaries.
There wasn’t much crossfire to be caught in around the tsar court, since it was mostly disbanded even before October Revolution.
Oh and carriage driver for tsar would be very likely okhrana agent, this was one of the favourite methods of being undercover in okhrana modus operandi, both for observers and bodyguards (the last one ever since Alexander II died in assassination in his carriage).
tbf this is a carriage builder
Ah true, so maybe not an okhrana agent but the former point still stay, bolshevik capture of tsar palaces was almost bloodless, if he got killed it was later, most likely when the dumb tsarist ass fought for whites.
Yeah, that’s fair
As someone who’s family was expropriated by the communists in their country: good. Could have imprisoned my great-grandmother less, she really didn’t know where her uncle hid the family riches.
Same
fuck all the kids trying to bring it back.
this is true! all AES states are kept eternally youthful via powerful Juche necromancy.
Lenin takoi molodoi
was it perhaps anti-semitism czar?
Antisemitism wasn’t invented until decades later when Israel was created.
Missing the forest for the trees: I wonder if Lenin actually had a hit list or if that would be under Trotsky’s responsibilities?
It would be under Dzierżyński’s responsibilities.
Military wise, i could imagine Trotsky being more involved with finding generals and commanders to take out during the civil war.
If Lenin had a hit list, it would’ve been full of people that annoyed him personally.
If Lenin had a hit list, Karl Kautsky would have died long before he did.
Lenin hit them with sick burns in his written work.
I wish that the Jews of imperial Russia had the opportunity to beat his great grandfather to death. I wish we were still on reddit so we could get banned for inciting violence against his long dead great grandfather.
Post a link, I just wanna talk
“Fuck communism”
1 quadrillion upvotes
Thanks for the gold kind stranger!!!
Edit: To all of the Communists coming into the conversation. Fuck Communism for being the most muderous regime in history, even being ahead of Hitlers Nazi Germany. On that note fuck Fascism and fuck Nazism. Most of all though fuck you for trying so hard to bring bsck the most murderous regime in history.
Anticommie suddenly tries to shoehorn an antifascist remark in the middle of his generic ranting. Original!
Also, who among us wants to bring back the Empire of Japan?

I’m interested in following the conversation if it’s in the comments. Would it be an opsec hazard to say which one is you?
It would not be because i did not comment
