basically 'scum of the earth' type of person.
@tyryonolofing3405 Says:
A hillariously cruel and merciless leader, the one who established basically terror method of fighting anyone who dared even to say anything against the Regime. Workaholic on a verge of maniac. Person, which even acquired now a city with his own name - guess who was given there flats?
The first sign of what is actually 'the Soviet power' is, now hus succecors terrorize more, than only their own country. Final judgement of the sins of state defenders is inevitable: again they shall be deemed unnecessary by the state itself, and no one will ever care for the fate of those who's work always was eating the people alive. Nothing is eternal, and their power so - and i will do anything in my hands, to put an end to their misery and cruelty.

Just call him Felix man🤣

One evil man
@guyphillips13 Says:
Could you cover Genrikh Yagoda?
@heberpelagio7161 Says:
Felix Dzerzhinsky's story serves to contradict those who try to describe Lenin and Stalin as antagonistic examples in terms of character and ideals: he was the right hand man of both them!
@ruturajshiralkar5566 Says:
Simon bro, plz make a video on NKVD Chiefs Vyachislav Menzhinsky & Genrikh Yagoda and CCP General Secretary Brezhnev. Also make one on Andrei Gromyko, the Mr Nyet.
@lukejohnston7785 Says:
The Who really got it so right when they sang " meet the new boss, same as the old boss ". No matter the revolution, nothing changes.
@ThomasG.-hh9gg Says:
Now you know why the Germans were worried and good old Felix was Jewish also

His actions were justified!

Huh. I expected him to be a larger player on the worlds stages.

Lies and Lies, Felix's father was polish NOT juuish...he was of polish nobility.

I was really surprised that Kerensky was (mistakenly?) represented by a pic of Mads Mikkelsen! (11:54)
Then I looked more closely.
@VonFreklstein Says:
Uritsky was killed on orders of British spies Reilly and Lockhart. They were on fact busy planning a coup, but this was foiled by the Red Terror. According to them Kaplan ruined their plans.
@slow_goon73 Says:
How can anyone know this about these people and still be sympathetic to the Soviet Union? They're just as bad, probably worse than Hitler.

@kroulinka Says:
Simon, can you do a biography about someone from Poland?
@olexandrs6639 Says:
Ur research on historic matters is again extremely poor.
Dzekzhynskyy organized 2 assassination attempts on Lenin.
Lenin created Cheka to kill other bolsheviks.
U not mentioned murder of Germam ambassador... (Dzerzhinskyy attempt to undermine Lenin's authority by sparking war against Germany against peace policy of Lenin.
@garyfrombrooklyn Says:
Your biographies are so interesting. It makes one aspire to become famous so they can be featured on your channel. Famous or infamous lol

Uhhhh 1980? Did I hear that?
@astrladam4392 Says:
Russian history is an embarrassing history of savagery and bleakness
@scrumpy8192 Says:
You say the Soviets invented gulags, but also that the empire sent prisoners to Siberia. This contradiction stems from you telling an outright lie about the origin of gulags.
@Antek104 Says:
Its not fuckin Żeźnicki its Dzierżyński...
@noname-qb7ir Says:
Where was he getting the money for all this travelling
@bigdogpete43 Says:
The Communists were and are still the most violent people on earth. They made Hitler look like a school marm.
@DominikKost Says:
You butchered Dzierżyński's surname SO hard that I feel like it's a form of vengance for all the Blood on his hands. :)
@boguslawgajdeczko6207 Says:
Given the stupidity of both revolutions, it is ridiculous that Felix Dzierzynski and his Cheka is so vilified but Robespierre-ists are frequently treated by 'history' as rightful heroes. Number of both terrors' victims in proportion to the respective country population was in both cases very similar - about 0.07%.
Personally, as a Russian hater, I like Bloody Felix as a prominent Russian slayer. As for the Russians, despite of Dzierzynski's clearly anti-Russian actions, those idiots used to erect his monuments.
@danwallach8826 Says:
What's with the "itsky" stuff?
Slow down, pal!
Also Dzherzhinsky also had a model for the Cheka.
It was the czarist secret police, the Okhrana.
Ain't nuthin' new under the sun.
@rfb5206 Says:
Felix Derzhinsky's father, as the name suggests, was part of the Dzerzhinsky family, which was an old Polish catholic aristocratic family. He was not jewish. Where do you get your sources from? Embarrassing mistake.
@jozefgrunmann7998 Says:
Simon, you make a great mistake / Father of Felix/..... correct it and your video will be perfect.
