content: There's a new series out on Netflix called "Trotsky" based on the life of Lev Davidovich Bronstein (Trotsky). When I saw it, I thought: wow, are they seriously going to glorify Trotsky now? That's bold even for Netflix.. Then I saw a part of the trailer, which is just plain bizzare. But then I looked at the data... and what I found surprised me: It's not a Netflix original, it was produced by Russians. The Times of Israel wrote this article.  “This is utter nonsense. It doesn’t fit in with any historical facts. I totally disagree,” said Gennady Estraikh, a New York University professor who specializes in Jewish history in Russia. “It smells like anti-Semitism, the claim that the Jews were responsible for the revolution rather than the Russians. It’s very strange.” Reddit wasn't impressed either. It's fucking awful and not only treats him as unambiguously evil, it implies that his "evil" is at least in part because of his jewishness. Yeah. Yeah. Thoughts?
