1936: The Rights the U.S. Still Won’t Guarantee - Lady Izdihar (3 min 51 sex)
Constitution of the Soviet Union - 8th All-Union Congress of Soviets
This Soviet World / (Audiobook) - Anna Louise Strong (1936)
That’s not what item 1 says
Correct, item 1 does not exist in a vacuum. The other items were largely about cutting the bolsheviks out of the red army and soviets, dissolving the bolsheviks as a political entity.
Do you mean item 10, that calls for soldiers to elect their officers, and workers to elect local police, as needed, rather than having it imposed on them without their consent?
Item 10 was specifically written so as to remove bolsheviks from millitary detachments, factory management, and more, despite the fact that the bolsheviks were the most popularly supported faction in the civil war. You’re romanticizing the sailors, who eventually turned on the tsarist that led the rebellion and refused his order to sink their ships and flee to Finland. Said tsarist then ran off and joined the White Army to keep opposing the communists.
