00:00:04
last summer I was fired from the
00:00:06
editorial board of the Seattle Times for
00:00:08
criticizing Vladimir Lenin in a column I
00:00:11
wrote on the grotesque 16-ft statue of
00:00:13
the Russian dictator erected in the
00:00:15
Fremont neighborhood of Seattle I
00:00:17
highlighted the moral depravity and
00:00:18
selective outrage of many on the
00:00:20
political left in the summer of 2020 I
00:00:23
saw folks in nearby Portland tear down
00:00:25
statues of Thomas Jefferson and George
00:00:27
Washington because despite founding one
00:00:29
of the greatest liberal democracies in
00:00:31
human history Washington owned 123
00:00:34
slaves at his Mount Vernon estate while
00:00:36
Jefferson owned more than 600 slaves yet
00:00:40
Lenin who built one of the most evil
00:00:42
regimes ever known enslaved a nation and
00:00:46
killed Millions gets a statue Vladimir
00:00:50
Lenin massacred more than 1 million
00:00:52
people for political and religious
00:00:54
purposes murdered up to 700,000 in the
00:00:57
genocide of the CICS more than 50 18,000
00:01:00
peasants in the tambol Rebellion over
00:01:03
3,000 Sailors and civilians in the
00:01:05
kronstad Rebellion thousands of workers
00:01:07
who dared to strike or could not work
00:01:10
almost 2 million who died in the gulag
00:01:12
concentration camps and upwards of 8
00:01:15
million from famine and disease as
00:01:18
Constantine kissen has argued communism
00:01:20
is even worse than fascism the violent
00:01:23
breed of Communism that Lenin created
00:01:25
carried forward by the likes of Stalin
00:01:27
and Ma has killed at least 100 100
00:01:30
million people but as historians dig
00:01:32
deeper that number is ever growing
00:01:35
fascism by comparison has killed roughly
00:01:38
36 million people after my column came
00:01:42
out I shared it on social media
00:01:44
observing that we would naturally never
00:01:45
tolerate a statue of Hitler so why would
00:01:47
we tolerate one of Lenin especially
00:01:49
since in psychological terms Hitler
00:01:53
quote was less evil than Lenin because
00:01:55
Hitler only targeted people he
00:01:57
personally believed were harmful to
00:01:59
society whereas Lenin targeted even
00:02:01
those he himself didn't believe were
00:02:04
harmful in any way in other words in his
00:02:08
own Twisted mind Hitler believed he was
00:02:10
protecting the innocent like many of
00:02:13
history's most evil figures he thought
00:02:15
he was the good guy let this be a lesson
00:02:18
on what people are capable of when they
00:02:20
convince themselves they are irrefutably
00:02:22
righteous Hitler was of course
00:02:25
delusional but what is more terrifying
00:02:28
lenon knew he was killing innocent
00:02:31
people and simply did not care we can
00:02:34
only imagine how many more Lenin would
00:02:37
have killed had the Soviet Union of the
00:02:38
1920s wielded the sort of Economic and
00:02:41
Military might of the Third Reich but
00:02:43
why should this matter why is it
00:02:46
important to ask such questions well for
00:02:49
the same reason I outlined in my
00:02:50
original column namely there is a
00:02:53
problem of moral depravity and selective
00:02:55
outrage on the political left when the
00:02:57
piece came out some readers told me they
00:03:00
regard the lenon statue as humorous
00:03:02
though I admit I failed to get the joke
00:03:04
others describe their undying respect
00:03:07
for the man one day in the times
00:03:09
boardroom I was sitting with my boss and
00:03:12
an intern my boss mentioned the column
00:03:15
and the intern perked up and said Soviet
00:03:17
Russia was the greatest country in
00:03:20
history my boss then gently noted that
00:03:23
in the column I tell how the Soviets
00:03:25
slaughtered members of my own family the
00:03:28
intern smiled
00:03:30
looked right in my face and said I think
00:03:34
some of that violence was
00:03:35
necessary imagine saying that to a
00:03:38
Jewish person immediately after hearing
00:03:40
that they lost family members in the
00:03:41
Holocaust this is why the conversation
00:03:43
matters people even now are celebrating
00:03:47
lennin Jordan Peterson once said that's
00:03:50
like celebrating
00:03:51
Hitler okay I'm dead serious about that
00:03:54
and the fact that people can dare to
00:03:57
think that that's okay means that
00:03:59
there's something wrong with the way
00:04:00
that we look at history lennin was a
00:04:03
monster but Lennon was a decidedly
00:04:06
different kind of monster Hitler Stalin
00:04:09
and Ma all grew up in suffocating
00:04:11
poverty with brutally abusive fathers
00:04:14
Stalin's father a Shoemaker named
00:04:16
basaran josi was a crazy drunk who
00:04:19
brutally beat his wife and son Joseph
00:04:22
Hitler's father aloris was not only an
00:04:24
abusive drunk but an incestuous
00:04:26
pedophile the point being men like
00:04:28
Hitler and Stalin became monsters
00:04:31
through horrific circumstances and we
00:04:34
can perhaps imagine a time in their
00:04:35
youth where they might have been steered
00:04:37
down a different path in Chapter 2 of
00:04:40
mine comp Hitler describes his initial
00:04:42
hatred of anti-Semitism upon moving to
00:04:44
Vienna in 1908 at the age of 19 many
00:04:47
don't realize it but the title of the
00:04:49
book my struggle refers not to his
00:04:51
struggle for power but against
00:04:55
anti-Semitism and it is in Chapter 2
00:04:57
that he describes how he lost that fight
00:04:59
at infinite cost to the world including
00:05:02
my family by contrast Lennon's father
00:05:06
was far from poor he was the director of
00:05:09
primary schools for the simers district
00:05:11
later for the entire Province and was
00:05:14
eventually named an aristocrat Lenin
00:05:17
grew up in comfort and was not steered
00:05:19
down a ruin his path by physical or
00:05:21
psychological torture he was not run
00:05:23
over by a horsedrawn carriage as a child
00:05:26
like Stalin or beaten for reading books
00:05:29
like Ma he was not made into a monster
00:05:31
and whatever evil lay in his heart was
00:05:34
apparently there from birth people
00:05:37
sometimes make the claim that it was
00:05:38
Stalin not Lenin who was the great evil
00:05:41
of Soviet Russia I like to remind them
00:05:44
as New Yorker editor David remnick wrote
00:05:46
in his P Sur prizewinning book in
00:05:48
Lenin's tomb that someone once made a
00:05:50
similar comment to the Soviet Diplomat
00:05:52
viacheslav Molotov one of the few people
00:05:55
in history who personally knew both
00:05:57
lennin and Stalin Molotov replied
00:06:01
compared to lenon Stalin was a mere lamb
00:06:05
in psychological terms Stalin displayed
00:06:09
sadism narcissism and most of all
00:06:13
paranoia in her 2013 paper
00:06:15
Psychopathology of Joseph Stalin the
00:06:17
clinical psychologist Marina stall
00:06:18
argues that Stalin had paranoid
00:06:20
personality disorder Hitler was
00:06:22
variously believed to have had all four
00:06:24
cluster B personality disorders or
00:06:26
possibly schizophrenia a 1993 used the
00:06:30
personality assessment schedule to
00:06:32
conclude Hitler had psychopathy paranoid
00:06:35
personality disorder or histrionic
00:06:37
personality disorder a 2007 DSM 4
00:06:41
assessment of Hitler by psychologist the
00:06:43
University of Colorado considered the
00:06:45
possibility of psychopathy but concluded
00:06:47
he probably had paranoid
00:06:49
schizophrenia this followed the work of
00:06:51
Canadian psychiatrist w d Vernon and
00:06:53
Henry Murray the Harvard psychologist
00:06:55
who authored The Landmark 1943 report
00:06:58
analysis of the personality of Adolf
00:06:59
Hitler in their work lenon and Murray
00:07:02
argued that Hitler was most likely
00:07:04
schizophrenic the famous psychologist
00:07:06
Eric Ericson called Hitler histrionic in
00:07:09
his 1950 book childhood and Society Eric
00:07:11
fromm's 1973 book anatomy of human
00:07:14
destructiveness claims Hitler was a
00:07:15
narcissist and in the 1983 book Hitler
00:07:18
Psychopathology New York psychoanalyst
00:07:20
Norbert Bromberg and writer verer Vault
00:07:22
small argue Hitler had narcissistic
00:07:25
personality disorder an argument later
00:07:27
made by French psychoanalyst grunberger
00:07:30
and Pier donon I sometimes explain the
00:07:32
difference between Hitler and Lenin is
00:07:34
that between Joffrey Baratheon a stupid
00:07:36
and sadistic narcissist who nevertheless
00:07:38
considers himself to be on the side of
00:07:40
the good and Hannibal lecor a searingly
00:07:43
intelligent and calculating psychopath
00:07:46
in the purest sense of the word who has
00:07:49
no use for Concepts such as good this
00:07:52
analogy also highlights the irrelevance
00:07:55
of body counts in assessing
00:07:56
psychological evil as well as the
00:07:59
terrifying relevance of intellect just
00:08:02
imagine Hannibal Lecter with a room
00:08:04
temperature IQ and see how scary he is
00:08:06
then consider that while Hitler Stalin
00:08:09
and Mao were of midling intelligence
00:08:11
Lenin was an intellectual giant who not
00:08:14
only played chess with the greatest
00:08:15
masters of the day but gave them a good
00:08:17
game the reference to Joffrey the illori
00:08:21
the cannibal also captures the primary
00:08:23
secondary psychopathy distinction a
00:08:25
secondary psychopath or type 2
00:08:27
psychopath is made by environmental
00:08:30
factors and these tend to be impulsive
00:08:32
unstable and not very bright people if
00:08:36
Hitler was a psychopath rather than a
00:08:37
homicidal narcissist he was almost
00:08:40
certainly a type 2
00:08:41
psychopath then you have the primary
00:08:43
psychopath also known as the born
00:08:46
psychopath or literal psychopath for
00:08:48
these people it makes no sense to
00:08:51
imagine a time in their youth where they
00:08:53
might have been steered down a different
00:08:54
path because their problem is
00:08:57
biological like Hannibal the type 1
00:08:59
psychopath is not impulsive but
00:09:02
calculating and methodical he's not
00:09:04
dimwitted but extremely intelligent he's
00:09:07
not socially disruptive but charming and
00:09:11
manipulative we know that even in his
00:09:13
early youth unlike Hitler or Stalin
00:09:16
Lenin was an amoral monster who tortured
00:09:19
his siblings and displayed an inhuman
00:09:20
lack of empathy in a pre-print on lenon
00:09:23
psychology the renowned Irish
00:09:25
psychiatrist Michael Fitzgerald writes
00:09:26
that lennin showed gross lack of empathy
00:09:29
as a child but at the same time could be
00:09:31
Charming Fitzgerald adds that Lennon
00:09:34
showed a rejection of Concepts such as
00:09:36
conscience compassion and charity was
00:09:38
only interested in using people for what
00:09:40
he could get out of them and was
00:09:42
controlling sadistic and meticulous once
00:09:46
he came to power Fitzgerald notes Lennon
00:09:49
loved having people killed and was
00:09:52
clearly
00:09:53
mellion lenon was a psychopath
00:09:56
Fitzgerald concludes to drive the point
00:09:59
firmly home he then goes line by line
00:10:03
through the entry for antisocial
00:10:04
personality disorder or psychopathy in
00:10:07
the diagnostic and statistical Manual of
00:10:09
mental disorders fifth edition writing
00:10:11
that lennin was quote totally focused on
00:10:14
himself and his desires and had empathy
00:10:16
problems intimacy problems and was
00:10:19
manipulative deceitful callous
00:10:22
irresponsible in Lenin a biography
00:10:24
Oxford professor of Russian history
00:10:26
Robert CIS writes that Lenin was an
00:10:28
often unkind child abusive and
00:10:31
destructive with malice in his character
00:10:34
service notes moral questions for him
00:10:37
were an irrelevance adding that lenon
00:10:39
was coldly calculating displayed massive
00:10:42
antisocial behavior during the Russian
00:10:44
famine from 1891 to 1892 service writes
00:10:48
that lenon showed shocking emotional
00:10:50
Detachment this period in Lennon's life
00:10:53
is Illuminating because it offers a
00:10:55
glimpse of lennin as a young man before
00:10:57
the corrupting influence of State power
00:10:59
had touched him the famine was
00:11:02
unimaginably
00:11:04
horrendous more than
00:11:06
400,000 people starved to death with
00:11:09
bodies piling up in hospital Courtyards
00:11:12
major roads were lined with corpses as
00:11:15
the Hungarian historian Victor Sebastian
00:11:17
writes in Lenin the man the dictator and
00:11:19
the master of Terror everyone did what
00:11:21
they could to save lives Anton checkov a
00:11:25
doctor opened a soup kitchens the
00:11:27
novelist Lev Tolstoy started a relief
00:11:29
campaign Lennon's elder sister Anna
00:11:31
handed out medicine but Lennon appalled
00:11:34
even his own family with his behavior he
00:11:37
spread disinformation about the relief
00:11:38
efforts not because he believed they
00:11:40
were harmful he knew the famine relief
00:11:43
campaigns were saving lives but rather
00:11:45
because he wanted as many people as
00:11:47
possible to die because their deaths
00:11:50
were useful to him lenon lived in the
00:11:53
vulgar region which was hardest hit by
00:11:55
the famine and saw firsthand the
00:11:58
profound suffering of the peasants he
00:12:01
knew his actions would kill the very
00:12:03
people he pretended to care about but as
00:12:05
Fitzgerald service and Sebastian and
00:12:07
others have noted these were unimportant
00:12:10
concerns to him the people were a means
00:12:12
to an end the more that died the better
00:12:16
so long as it caused enough social
00:12:18
unrest to end the sist regime you might
00:12:22
think he was simply willing to break a
00:12:24
few million eggs to make an omelet but
00:12:27
his was not a cause for the greater good
00:12:30
it was personal his elder brother
00:12:32
Alexander had been a terrorist who tried
00:12:34
to kill Alexander II and was hanged the
00:12:37
family was shunned by polite society and
00:12:40
whether Lenin truly loved his brother or
00:12:42
was merely offended by the slight to his
00:12:44
reputation he became bitter and spent
00:12:47
years obsessing over violent fantasies
00:12:50
of Revenge he had as service plainly
00:12:53
puts it a lust for violence that lust
00:12:57
was fully manifested once he took power
00:13:01
according to Dimitri vov former
00:13:03
assistant to yelson who wrote a
00:13:05
biography of Lenin based on secret
00:13:07
Soviet archives lack of pity class
00:13:10
hatred and melanism were the highest
00:13:14
revolutionary values alongside these was
00:13:18
terrorism as Terror would break the will
00:13:20
to resist of
00:13:22
millions initially bokov writes Lenin
00:13:25
offered justifications for the evil he
00:13:28
wished to commit citing revolutionary
00:13:30
conscience later he dropped all pretense
00:13:33
and instead began repeating Maxim
00:13:35
gorky's phrase the logic of the AXS
00:13:39
meaning persuasion by execution he no
00:13:43
longer needed to pretend he was a serial
00:13:46
killer in charge of a mafia State a pure
00:13:50
psychopath and the blood in suffering
00:13:52
would not end with him nor with his
00:13:55
henchman Stalin what has sadly faded is
00:13:59
not his evil political cause murdering
00:14:01
the people in the name of the people you
00:14:03
can find that to this day in the
00:14:05
genocide being carried out by China or
00:14:08
in the Pro Hamas chance being sung by
00:14:10
students on us campuses what has faded
00:14:14
alas is our memory of the man and who he
00:14:17
truly was no person in human history has
00:14:21
ever set a stone rolling that has
00:14:23
crushed more people or left more blood
00:14:26
in its wake thankfully
00:14:29
pushing back is simple we need only tell
00:14:33
the
00:14:35
