Deprived of his father’s love at a young age, Stalin developed a distinctly rebellious character, a daring spirit of adventure, and a willingness to fight—key factors in his subsequent development as a staunch Marxist and Lenin’s successor. His personality enabled him to make tremendous historical contributions to Soviet governance, the Communist Party, and the military, leaving behind both glory and retribution. He was a historical giant, both charismatic and discerning.
Flags, or “Banners” – have been used for thousands of years – in one form or another, to distinguish one group of humans from another. Each such entity conveys “difference” of intent and identity. Each flag is designed to gather together those who “belong” – and “push-away” those who do not. Like the tribal body-markings of the Celts and Picts, each piece of material containing pictures and coloured sections serve as an identifier of “sameness” and a marker of “difference”. As the “Confederate” States of America (CSA) viewed itself as the “true” and “genuine” conveyor of the authentic 1776 “Revolution” – the flags chosen to represent this reality were similar to – but different from – the “Stars and Stripes” as carried by the “United States” of America (USA). There were many “unofficial” flags flown by the citizens and military of the Confederacy – due to the democratic (free) nature of its society and culture. These popular flags were flown alongside (and parallel to) the “official” flags designed and adopted by the government of the CSA. Indeed, these “local” flags lasted throughout the entire war and influenced all the official designs.
The Dictator of the fascist “Independent State of Croatia,” which existed during the Nazi Occupation of Yugoslavia – Ante Pavelić created a system of Death Camps where about 700,000 Serbs, Jews and Gypsies were systematically tortured and exterminated. Ante Pavelić even announced a competition to find the most effective execution weapon, and his Ustasha colleagues invented a special “Serbosek” or “Serbocut” knife for quickly cutting throats.
Only then did the newly franchised Bourgeoisie begin to routinely mimic the upper-class they had politically replaced as controllers of the means of production – following the 1649 CE execution of King Charles I – and extensively educate their children in literacy (and all kinds of other academic subjects). After 1649 CE – this type of Bourgeois education slowly began to develop – but certainly did not happen to any great extent prior to this date. In this regard, Shakespeare seems historically out-of-place – like a technologically sophisticated and advanced artefact discovered on the floor of an ancient cave – how did such an object arrive in this position?
When the captured Westerners – who had lived the most opulent of lives within a starving China – were placed in austere Prisoner of War Camps, their pretences to physical and spiritual superiority came crashing down after a week on half-rations. Belief in a Christian God meant absolutely nothing – as in such filth and deprivation – illness, injury and lack of nutrition reduced everyone to exactly the same level of desperation, hopelessness, and depression. Many Europeans, whilst undergoing just a little deprivation of the luxury and deference they were used to – fell into a stupor and a type of memory loss from which they never recovered. The victory and dominance of the Imperial Japanese in China (and throughout Asia) was in reality a defeat of European racism. The Imperial Japanese proved to the Europeans they had replaced, that through the fascism of Nippon, a non-White people could be just as dominant and racist. What the White people had inflicted on the population of Asia – the Japanese inflicted upon the defeated Europeans.
