Propaganda?

[Nonson]

To no one in particular. The damn revolution was betrayed before Lenin took office. He spent the rest of his life in grief over the loss.

Hmm..the topic took a turn into a different direction...I was trying to get at the fact that America uses it's own forms of propopanda on a daily basis (ie The Pledge of Allegiance) and has no right to frown upon the propoganda of the Soviet Union. Not dealing with Leninism or Stalinism, but just with the Soviet Union and it's tactics over the years. Of course there is ALWAYS propoganda, in war or otherwise...but it was not "brainwashing," and if it was, then the Soviet Union was not the only guilty party.
