3. As one who wanted CHANGE, Trostky would be disgusted that the whole sub-culture of hipsterdom is a completely un-original; "take your grandmother's sweater and Bob Dylan's wayferers, add jean shorts, Converse All-Stars and a can of Pabst and bam- hipster!"
4. If the revolutionaries were around today, Stalin would probably be a hipster. But then again, I think Lenin would have been an indie. Trotsky would have steered clear of any unconforming conformity and just been himself.
5. Trotsky didn't give a shit if anything was cool or not!

Heartbreak by Bella, a short story
There once was a girl named Bella, whose bright eyes and crazy-sexy hair would cause many to fall for her. Those men, the ones who could not resist the fire of Bella, all ended up the same way; broken hearted. Bella, a descendant from the sexy-as-possible Camille Desmoulins, is what is rumoured to be the last ever vela! What comes before you know is a tale of murder, heart ache, lust and feminism!
Despite popular opinion, the Russian revolution was not a result of the toiling masses revolting against the unfair hierarchy, but because Lenin was a victim of cruel Bella’s enjoyment. His actions were out of dire frustration at her lack of neutral feelings. She toyed him along, and then broke his heart. He was in pieces, and he took his revenge upon the Russian autocratic system. Lenin did not die of a stroke, but of a severed heart!
Devastation occurred when Bella’s next prey became evident. Trotsky, a charming and handsome young lad who would have been capable of reeling in any girl set his sights upon Bella. But Bella did as she always did; took advantage of his adoration. She was a temptress alright. She played him just as she played Lenin. And this one ended much, much, worse!
Heartbroken after being played and turned down, Trotsky went on a bender. With 100 per cent pure Russian vodka. It didn’t end well. The story gets busy here, with varying accounts. Something about Mexican food, and a tooth pick for ice...
But what is for sure, is that Trotsky didn’t make it past that night.
But when Bella played with the heart of a man named Joseph Stalin, it was to have severe consequences. Stalin was a man who would not be messed with, and when Bella left him he took his revenge by STARVING the population of Russia. It was a sad and horrific period, but heartbreak by Bella will cause insanity.
The top 5: things that make me as crazy as Rasputin
1. People who don't speak Russian (Russian revolution that is). 2. Not being able to visit and be in a relatively close proximity to Lenin's skin. 3. Mr. Davies not showing us Anastasia, even though he said he would, because it's not historically correct enough but he feels quite content to show as Marie Antoinette. 4. Stalin destroying the work Lenin had done by ousting Trotsky and then sending one of his cronies to stab him in the skull with an ice pick in Mexico; not cool Stalin, NOT COOL! 5. Coles customers (refer to a previous post for how this relates to the Russian revolution and/or Russia).
