I'm sitting here watching Dr. Zhivago again. Remember that the
Communist Party in Russia was started by people who wanted to do good
and the best for everyone (doing the whole Robin Hood thing). Good
intentitions are clearly not sufficient.

Unfortunately, historical fact do not bear out that hollywood
fantasy... Lenin, Trostky, et. al., caused and led a civil war that
killed and/or starved millions - including murdering the Romanovs
right down to helpless children - so they could be in power, and
Stalin was a thug who murdered his way to power, and then murdered
tens of millions of Russians to keep that power ... Good intentions
were never an issue...
