Kronstadt - split from IBRP
I am more interested in the strike.
Your more interested in the strike? Not the Kronstadt Soviets declaration or the fact Trotsky sent wave after wave of Red Army troops across ice sheets to put the insurrection down?
Fuck your duller than I thought, either that or your just trying to dodge the issue.
The Kronstadt Platform was mainly class demands:
1. Immediate new elections to the Soviets. The present Soviets no longer express the wishes of the workers and peasants. The new elections should be by secret ballot, and should be preceded by free electoral propaganda.2. Freedom of speech and of the press for workers and peasants, for the Anarchists, and for the Left Socialist parties.
3. The right of assembly, and freedom for trade union and peasant organisations.
4. The organisation, at the latest on 10th March 1921, of a Conference of non-Party workers, solders and sailors of Petrograd, Kronstadt and the Petrograd District.
5. The liberation of all political prisoners of the Socialist parties, and of all imprisoned workers and peasants, soldiers and sailors belonging to working class and peasant organisations.
6. The election of a commission to look into the dossiers of all those detained in prisons and concentration camps.
7. The abolition of all political sections in the armed forces. No political party should have privileges for the propagation of its ideas, or receive State subsidies to this end. In the place of the political sections various cultural groups should be set up, deriving resources from the State.
8. The immediate abolition of the militia detachments set up between towns and countryside.
9. The equalisation of rations for all workers, except those engaged in dangerous or unhealthy jobs.
10. The abolition of Party combat detachments in all military groups. The abolition of Party guards in factories and enterprises. If guards are required, they should be nominated, taking into account the views of the workers.
11. The granting to the peasants of freedom of action on their own soil, and of the right to own cattle, provided they look after them themselves and do not employ hired labour.
12. We request that all military units and officer trainee groups associate themselves with this resolution.
13. We demand that the Press give proper publicity to this resolution.
14. We demand the institution of mobile workers' control groups.
15. We demand that handicraft production be authorised provided it does not utilise wage labour.
They're pretty much the same spirit as the Bolshevik slogans during 1917 and most of their practice in the first year of the Russian Revolution.
By putting down a revolt around such a platform the Bolsheviks demonstrated they were no longer a proletarian party. The proper place for communists was to support these class demands, criticise the more ambivalent demands, and denounce the Bolsheviks' use of force.
Your more interested in the strike?
Obviously, that's what started everything. Without the strike, there would be no insurrection.
Not the Kronstadt Soviets declaration or the fact Trotsky sent wave after wave of Red Army troops across ice sheets to put the insurrection down?
Did I ever say that I wasn't interested in those? No. Are you making up stuff up from your ass? Yes.
Fuck your duller than I thought
Oh, no flaming Revol 




Leo what's your view on Kronstadt?
