Rasputin is a man of unknown alignment who's been labeled many names. History mainly describes Grigory Rasputin as a devil, undermining the Czar and Russia. Some will talk of his powers to heal, what a great friend and ally he was, and more adjectives of a positive nature. Strong evidence rules for both sides. Regardless of who or what he was, his name is associated with the negative. And was he truly a horrible man? The successors of Russia (and murderers of the Czar's family) definitely left the foul stain on Rasputin's name. Though, even while alive, his reputation was not great. Nonetheless, propaganda left an everlasting mark which will remind everyone of the beast they claim Rasputin was. Perhaps he was, perhaps he wasn't. All that can be said is a loud enough voice with enough gusto and power behind it can sway the ideas of a nation (and even the world).
If you read this blog, I hope your ideas and opinions are based on things you've educated yourself on and have found reliable, unmanipulated sources on. You don't have to take my word on it. It is your right to form your own thoughts and ideas. The more educated you are, the better a person you'll find yourself.
