>When the kulaks were beginning to create surplus grain... absolutely terrible better kill those anti-revolutionaries
Well what they were really doing is squeezing them to fund the industrialization in the cities by taking advantage of a difference in the balance of trade between agriculture in industry, so it wasn't that different from the enclosure of the commons in England (just more violent and compressed on a shorter time scale). But they also didn't want an independently wealthy peasantry which would threaten the party's power base.
