Tea at Trianon: The Soviet Story

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

The Soviet Story

From Tierney's Real News:

I had no idea how bad it really was and how much we’ve ALL been lied to by the KGB and the Islamo-Communist propaganda (RED-GREEN axis) that still controls our media today.
Everyone needs to watch this documentary. It was made some 20 years ago and includes footage of survivors and lots of real-time video from the 1930s. It’s hard to watch but if you want to know the truth about what could happen to us if we don’t stop them - and not some fairytale - it’s a must view.
I have read dozens of books on this topic and thousands of articles and written several newsletters about it - but I never understood what really happened UNTIL NOW. The documentary is only 90 minutes long but it contains the most truth per minute I’ve ever seen anywhere!
BOTH the socialist NAZIs AND the socialist SOVIETS called their CONSERVATIVE enemies FASCISTS (that’s the key) - just like the Islamo-Nazi-Communist Mamdani is calling Trump today. Same playbook.
The missing piece of the puzzle is that Stalin AND Hitler both admired Marx and believed that all “inferiors” and those who disagreed needed to be exterminated to PERFECT man. They perfected GENOCIDE as part of Marx’s socialist platform. Anyone who disagreed with the socialist genocidal strategy was deemed a FASCIST. (Read more.)
