What if Stalin Never Came to Power?

"Trotsky, on the other hand, saw the danger that Nazism truly was." Of course he did! He's jewish

In Trotsky russia,Russia invades germany

Stalin: Joins the Bolsheviks Stalin’s Mom: You know ... Stalin: It’s not a phase mom! I have a whole 5 year plan and stuff!

I think the funniest part of this video was describing the “Council of Soviets.” Being someone who knows Russian, the word “Soviet” actually means “Council,” thus it is the Union Council of all of the Councils. And the Soviet Union is actually the “Council Union.” However, I suppose the west didn’t think that “Council” was scary enough, and thus used the foreign word “Soviet” to make a name that put fear and discontent into the hearts of its citizens.

(Meanwhile in an alternate universe...) What if Trotsky never came to power?

What if Lenin lived untill the end of WW2

There's some minor mistakes in this video in relation to Stalin. Stalin didn't think Hitler was an ally, he knew that war was going to build eventually, but he believed he could shore up his industry first and that Germany wouldn't want to engage in a two front war. He also was still an absolute fanatic of communism and did believe in the workers' global revolution as we find in his private writings but was also extremely paranoid and steadily going more insane and paranoid as time went on to where his disappearances became almost random. The main reason he didn't immediately engage in global revolution is not because he didn't believe in it, but rather he was more practical and politically maneuverable than, say, Trotsky, and that's saying something about Trotsky.

I love how baby Stalin still had a mustache lol

For those wondering, I got rid of the swastika because good ol' Youtube likes to ban ad revenue for showing "controversial" stuff.

Stalin: “everyone is out to get me.” Hitler, self described commie hater: “wanna team up?” Stalin: “Seems legit!”

One assumption that every "what if" scenario about Trotsky seems to make is that he would have been able to hold power indefinitely. None seem to consider the much more likely possibility that he would have been either been ousted, sidelined, or completely shifted his stance when faced with the realities of leadership within 2-5 years.

Hitler: first I sign a non aggression pact and then boom hit em when there not looking. Trotksy: I'm about end this mans whole career

What if lenin never got sick and actually lived up to lead the red army ?

Stalins: becomes brutal dictator over russia His mom: I wish he had become a priest.

I'd be terrified to see how nukes would play into this alternate history.

“This...is Josef Stalin.” Hello Stalin “The tyrannical dictator-“ Hol’ up

When you use the picture of Kalinin a thousand times and claim it is Trotsky
