9th: If you were living in Russia in the early 1900s, what would you be most angry about and why? by Marina Dieringer

I would be most angry about the czar pretending to care about workers' opinions and creating "soviets," but dismissing their opinions anyway--Showing he still doesn't care for the working people.

I would be most angry about how the czar didn’t do anything about the officials killing all those people just for speaking up about how they feel about the government.

I would be angry he promised to do more for the people after the people had to complain for decades and then turned around and lied straight to their faces

I would be the most upset about Bloody Sunday and the tsar not doing anything for his people. It would make me lose all my trust in the government even when it was so little.

I think I would be mostly mad about Bloody Sunday and coming peacefully and at any chance could get shot for trying make the country better

I would be most angry about how no one was listening to me. I would want my opinion to be heard especially if many of us felt the same way.

2025-01-29 18:23:01 UTC

What would make me the most mad is the killing of the people and the tsar not caring so that is what would make me the most mad.

I would be the most mad about the lack of accountability from the Czar if your officers killed a group of peaceful protesters that would make me blame the Czar for supporting their actions.

2025-01-29 18:23:11 UTC

I would be most angry about the whole Bloody Sunday, they didn’t have to just kill people like that. Especially if the crowd was peaceful.

2025-01-29 18:23:14 UTC

I would be most angry about the Tsar’s autocratic policies and how he mistreated non-Russians, because I would want to live in a country that was equal and I felt free.

I’d be most upset about the lack of progression early on. Even when given the chance to move forward, the tsar still chose to hold the nation back, thus endangering them in the future. the lack of concern for the citizens is what would really upset me here.

2025-01-29 18:23:40 UTC

I would be most angered by the fact that after the tsar came home, he did nothing to punish the soldiers and officials that killed the unarmed protesters.

2025-01-29 18:23:51 UTC

I would be most angry about the fact that the tsar didn't put the people first. During industrialization, he practically let people die because he wasn't prepared to be in a war. He was too caught up in being traditional that he wasn't ready to fight in a war.

2025-01-29 18:24:15 UTC

I would be most mad about the lack of industrialization because a lot of other countries are doing it and we’re further back than a lot of countries were going into war with.

2025-01-29 18:24:19 UTC

They shot our people, and you your gonna do nothing?! You got some nerve to attack us like that and claim you'll do something. You have truly put out world into jeopardy!

2025-01-29 18:24:26 UTC

I would be the most angry about the officials not being penalized after Blood Sunday by the Tsar.^{or czar for you Americans 🤓}

2025-01-29 18:24:27 UTC

The poor work conditions because why would I like to work in somewhere dangerous and unsanitary.

2025-01-29 18:25:23 UTC

I would be most mad the Russo-Japanese war because it would tell the world we are weak

2025-01-29 18:25:25 UTC

What I think would make me upset the most during that time period would be the poor working conditions and low food/supplies at home including the all the protests strikes and violence across the country.

2025-01-29 18:25:34 UTC

I would be most angry about how the czar promised more freedom but lost a lot of people’s trust

2025-01-29 18:25:46 UTC

I would be mad about the fact that we lost a lot during the war to the embarrassing point and we still kept fighting and not stopping to figure out what we did wrong

2025-01-29 18:25:52 UTC

I would be most angry about the wage gap between the rich and poor, and also the lack of progression as a whole in the country. The lack of attention paid to the country and workers opinions is so wrong.
