The American Revolution had everything to do with independence, and nothing to do with any radical change in the economic system. The Russian revolution was about replacing a monarchy with something far worse. No, the Russian revolution was about replacing an extremely cruel system with something much better. That it failed to do so is irrelevant to what drove it. First the monarchy was overthrown, THEN the Bolsheviks crashed the party. They had planned for violence all along. It was inevitable. There is nothing inherently violent about the communism that inspired the Russian Revolution. Inevitably, the communists must use violence and murder to squash dissent. Nonsense, but I'd expect nothing different from a dogmatist such as yourself. It seems you need to educate yourself.
