British Library exhibition treats Russian Revolution from a hostile standpoint

That doesn't really follow.

But it does…
Stalin used extensively these tools. + Lenin put them in place + People dislike Stalin [for using these tools] => People also dislike Lenin

No, it doesn't, because the tools themselves account for neither the craftsman, nor the project, nor the guild.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised that a fascist would try and advocate such a dishonest and reductionist view of things.

I visited the exhibition with some friends a month ago and it is as described in the article. Very much told from a liberal perspective with not a single mention of the genocidal intent of the whites. Still it the exhibits themselves were interesting and some of Lenin's books were on sale outside.

To the freikorps with ya.

This sounds nice but makes little sense. Lenin created and used these tools ; Stalin used them more extensively.
It's not as if you could use show trials for anything else than repression, anyways.

No, actually it's worse.

Is British history always this awful? I just watched a documentary about the revolution, and it was an utter disgrace. They gave no time to any theory. They did not even say what exactly a "soviet" was. Instead, they framed the entire revolution in the context of a family feud between the Ulyanovs and the Romanovs. They do not even mention the other factions in the civil wars.

The worst part was one bit with a historian who seemed to be describing the difference in civic organization between the Provisional Government and the Petrograd Soviet. He describes the Provisional organization as representative liberalism and then cut him off before he could describe the soviet. I swear to god, the next two words out of his mouth after the cut were "direct democracy."

As usual the fascist will use any trick to try and obfuscate their despicable sophistry. Lenin might have "created" these tools and "used" these tools, but a man that made and used the hammer to build a house isn't the same as a man making and using that hammer to build a crucifix.

You try and strip away all context and sense to create a void where you can impose your crooked bourgeois equivocation to paint revolutionaries as the seed of all evil. As always the reactionary core of the demsoc Rosentots betrays their true intentions and beliefs, conflating revolutionary necessity with reactionary repression in order to defend their own abhorrent bourgeois collaborationism.

This is your brain on ideological purism.
