politically agitated people are easily entrenched in their views. the imperial government was deeply ineffective at controlling the population and as such all of its enemies got their claws on the people's minds. ever since before the murder of alexander ii young people began idealizing the idea that people in charge hinder prosperity, so if you just kill everyone related to government life will eventually get better. by 1917 every single city retard was political and the hustle and bustle of endless terrorism and protests in the capital became unbearable. the emperor abdicated and the new governments ended up being even worse. naturally, the retard mass think prevailed = real revolution hasn't been tried before. you keep killing people in charge until actually competent people (me and everyone i support) get power. under such conditions the side that wins is the most radical and the most violent one, the one that also promised the most populistic bullshit possible. if it weren't bolsheviks some other party could have done it later on after even more deaths. just as radical, if not more. no rational party had it in them to leave this retard cycle due to moral constraints. bolsheviks decided to fight endless terror and anarchy with the red terror of their own. they allowed the most local of institutions to sentence and execute. no central body needed to be involved. do what you want as long as enemies of the revolution end up dead. once they're dead finally the land can rest with no politically agitated retards in it. except there was a war, fuckton of people had guns and everyone wanted to see the king of the hill dead, so the land plunged in another 5 years of hell on earth immediately after """quitting""" the ww1, with even more deaths, murders, pillage, hunger, etc. even the allies decided to aggravate the situation to punish for getting out of war.
