It was the Russian Revolution that brought Marxism to the attention of China. Lenin’s twisting of Marx now allowed the theory to be applied to pre-industrial nations, and his writings on imperialism appealed to the Chinese, who were victims of imperialism. More importantly, the Chinese were impressed by the policies of the new Soviet Union (Schwartz 7-8). On July 25, 1919, the Soviet Union formally announced its plan to return the Chinese Eastern Railroad to the Chinese people, as well as giving up any concessions enjoyed by the Czarist government. The Soviets also pledged to help the Chinese in their struggle for freedom.
1. "The Russian Empire one and indivisible" hasn't been a thing since 1920. The Whites lost.

2. "Part of the USSR" =/= "Part of Russia"
3. In any case the USSR broke up in 1991. It doesn't exist anymore.
4. Paul's logic endorses the British reconquest of Ireland. Just saying. https://t.co/4tVfKXvGBS
I swear I'm not doing this on purpose. I got my episode out a good 18 hours before Paul started channeling the ghost of Admiral Kolchak. https://t.co/rNGGAKP8BP

And then, because this is Twitter (where everyone misunderstands everyone) someone misinterpreted Mike's comment: 1. "The Russian Empire one and indivisible" hasn't been a thing since 1920. The Whites lost. to be about the White Race...
The guy got mad at Mike cause he thought "Whites" meant white people. People shut him down in the replies and he deleted his account
