I don't think people are really into this so I will pump out all of the chapters I had hand written so far and end it there.

Bukharin Hails Totalism as the way forward!

The Bolshevik Politician Nikolai Bukharin has praised his comrades overseas for their adoption of bolshevik doctrine into the new and rapidly gaining support system of "Totalism" or Totalitarian Socialism.

Interesting to say the least

Just to note, Nikolai Bukharin is one of my personal favorite Bolshevik revolutionaries in real life, he was a great thinker and Theorist.

Bukharin was immensely popular within the party throughout the twenties and thirties, even after his fall from power. In his testament, Lenin portrayed him as the "Golden Boy" of the party, writing:

Speaking of the young C.C. members, I wish to say a few words about Bukharin and Pyatakov. They are, in my opinion, the most outstanding figures (among the youngest ones), and the following must be borne in mind about them: Bukharin is not only a most valuable and major theorist of the Party; he is also rightly considered the favourite of the whole Party, but his theoretical views can be classified as fully Marxist only with great reserve, for there is something scholastic about him (he has never made a study of the dialectics, and, I think, never fully understood it)... Both of these remarks, of course, are made only for the present, on the assumption that both these outstanding and devoted Party workers fail to find an occasion to enhance their knowledge and amend their one-sidedness.
