“You must understand, the leading Bolsheviks who took over Russia were not Russians. They hated Russians. They hated Christians. Driven by ethnic hatred they tortured and slaughtered millions of Russians without a shred of human remorse. It cannot be overstated. Bolshevism committed the greatest human slaughter of all time. The fact that most of the world is ignorant and uncaring about this enormous crime is proof that the global media is in the hands of the perpetrators.” — Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
According to Solzhenitsyn, the Bolshevik revolution is still alive and well. It was not a one time event as evidenced by the fact that the scale of its atrocity is largely unknown. In fact, the historicity of it is largely unknown. If it is, as Solzhenitsyn says, one of the greatest human slaughters of all time, and a mere stone's throw of centuries old to boot, how is it that so few know so little about it and that so many know nothing about it? Well, as Solzhenitsyn posits, perhaps that is because the perpetrators of that atrocity now control the flow of information.
“Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.” — George Orwell, 1984
In other words, the revolution seems to have been more successful than first imagined.
“We do not need a censorship of the press. We have a censorship by the press.” — G.K. Chesterton
And one only need consider which direction the censorship is being applied to understand who controls the beep buttons.
