my own observation is that the rulers of a civilization can do whatever they want, as long as they can provide enough spoils for those they rule.
LOL!!! Now that I like! An honest cynic! :-)

Not that this species does not have much to be cynical about.

whatever the implications, there were wealthy americans and europeans who financed the bolsheviks
ABSOLUTELY! Those butchers conned the western left right up to the day the Communists fell. And I'm sure there are many who still pine for them. There were many in the West who believed the New World Order would come from the east, specifically Moscow.

'wall street and the bolshvik revolution'
What claims were made?

to this day i have photocopies of articles such as 'so and so gives bolshivekis a million' right out of the new york times of 1919 or so...
I don't doubt that for a second.

'the best enemy money can buy: western aid to the soviet union'
Now that sounds interesting. What did he say?

to know that fox or cnn are more than anything else machines of indoctrination (not to mention profit) doesn't take any kind of special genius...
This is hardly true just of Fox and CNN. Simple scarcity of time forces editing, which leads to particular slants being chosen. This true of any TV station or publication.

In a like vein to your comments, there were many in the US who favored Hitler until the outbreak of war and thought fascism was the wave of the future. Charles Lindbergh, that famous aviator, was one of them. So was Henry Ford.
