As soon as Lenin died, it turned out that the second most important person in the party, Comrade Trotsky, was a traitor.

Comrades Kamenev, Zinoviev, Bukharin, and Stalin overthrew Trotsky and expelled him from the USSR.

But a couple of years later, it turned out that Comrades Kamenev, Zinoviev, and Bukharin were also traitors and saboteurs. 1/

Then the valiant Comrade Genrikh Yagoda arrested them.

But later it turned out that Comrade Yagoda was himself a traitor and an enemy agent, so he was arrested by Comrade Yezhov.

But a couple of years later, it turned out that Yezhov too was not a comrade, but a plain traitor and enemy agent, and Yezhov was arrested by Comrade Beria. 2/

After Comrade Stalin died, everyone realized that Comrade Beria was also a traitor. Then Comrade Zhukov arrested Beria.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  But soon Comrade Khrushchev figured out that Comrade Zhukov was a traitor and conspirator, and exiled him to the Urals.

And shortly after, it was revealed that Stalin himself had been an enemy, a saboteur, and a traitor. Along with him, most of the Politburo too. 3/

So Stalin was removed from the Mausoleum, and the Politburo — including Shepilov, who had joined them — was disbanded by honest party members under Comrade Khrushchev.

A few years passed, and it turned out that Comrade Khrushchev was a voluntarist, a charlatan, an adventurist, and a traitor. 4/

Then Comrade Brezhnev retired Khrushchev.

After Comrade Brezhnev died, it turned out that he too had been a saboteur and the cause of stagnation — in other words, a traitor, at least to the ideals.

Then there were two more, whom no one even had time to remember.

But then came to power a young, energetic Comrade Gorbachev. 5/


And it turned out that the entire party had been a party of saboteurs and traitors — but he would now fix everything.

That’s when the USSR collapsed. And Comrade Gorbachev turned out to be an enemy and a traitor.

You have just listened to a brief history course of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. /end
