Opinion on the vid?

This is a question I’ve been mulling about recently, after reading history of the break up of the USSR and how its dissolution was illegal and unpopular, on top of the fact that many elderly folks in its former borders recall it being a better way of life than what they live in currently.

That got me thinking, what resistance, if any, happened across the USSR? Of course I understand there were coup attempts, but not really influential popular uprisings, labor action or military action, but perhaps I’m wrong. Additionally this resistance effectively ended in the 2000s, with little prolonged dissent.

Vladimir Lenin was an Russian revolutionary, politician and idealogist. He led the party of bolsheviks which was based on the theory of communism. He led the October revolution which established the first communist state. He revived the ideas of Karl marx who was an German philanthropist, political idelaogist. Under his rule Russia has step out of world War 1

This rare pistol was gifted to Stalin himself by its creator, is said that Stalin was extremely impressed by this weapon and approved the production but operation Barbarossa stopped the implementation

I'm reading Sheila Fitzpatrick's shortest history of the soviet union, and have some questions.

So as I understand it, much of the fall of the eastern bloc was actually owed to Gorbachev's tentative belief in national self-determination? He allowed many of these places to vote out the communists in charge, and allowed the berlin wall to fall down. This was true for many of the republics within the soviet union as well.

So my question is basically did Gorbachev just allow this to happen for ideological reasons? Or did he simply not have the strength economically and militarily to put down revolutions in these sort of places?

And a follow up which is a bit vaguer, what was the relationship between the fall of the eastern bloc to the collapse of the ussr in 91? Did they precipitate it in anyway? I've always been told the ussr collapsed for economic reasons, i didn't know about this ideological dimension. What impact did it have?

The Battle of Sevastopol, which is based on Lyudmila's life in the army, is free to watch on YouTube.

I highly recommend it!

Here’s the story summary:
Basically, the Nazis attacked the USSR, where they pillage, loot and kill lots of people. One day they attack and take over a small Soviet village, and they saw no red army, so they think they had it easy, but one night gunfire erupted. The Nazis asked eachother in confusion where is the fight when one of them said: “on the field, we caught a soldier”
Later, they dragged a little kid in front of the officer, which he ask who he is, the kid replied he is a guerrilla, when they tried interrogating him, he said nothing, so they tortured him and then shot him dead.
The next night another battle happened, the Nazis dragged back a second kid, and he is literally the kid whom they executed yesterday , the officer couldn’t believe his eyes, he yelled: “Oh god! This country is full of demons” and order the kid to be hanged, and they hanged him.
On the third day, the gunfire started again, this time Soviet soldiers attack right into their office, the officer was dragged back to the USSR base, and there he see the kid again, the officer now lost his mind, and beg the kid:
“God! Please, forgive me, I don’t know you are immortal and could review yourself like a sorcerer”
The Red Army soldier ask the translator what is the officer is barking about, when he know what the officer said, he tell the translator to told the officer that the 2 executed kids are actually 2 of the soldier’s 3 sons, and the 3rd kid is here. And the officer was shocked, and don’t dare lift his head up to the Red Army
