>>17863165 (OP)No, because people in the West had better lives than Russian faggots. It would've failed just like it failed in Germany.
Tsar Nicholas was a complete fucking retard, he was a dumbass even for Royalty standards. He did what his predecessors did, but back in their day there was no popular fringe ideology such as communism because people were illiterate morons.
If he had any sort of competent secret police and killed commies before they could get any sort of power he would've died of old age.
But he didn't and the war with Germany was peak idiocy, conscripting people and getting them mutilated and killed in a war of aggression is the most unpopular thing you can do. I bet lots of people wanted to see him and his family dead even if they didn't believe in communism.
The only reason the USSR became a thing is because the Russian monarchy at that time was sooo....fucking....retarded.
All he had to do was build fortifications on Russia's border and call for volunteers once Germany attacks Russia, a hundreds of thousands would've volunteered he would be seen as a saint who only wanted to protect Russia from foreign aggression.
