!anticommunists some context.
Father Gregory Apollonovich Gapon was a left wing political activist and a glowie for the tsarist secret police (Okhrana).
He led a mostly peaceful demonstration of workers to the winter palace where they were shot in 1905 and then called upon workers to stand against the tsarist regime (this event triggered the 1905 Revolution). A year later the commies figured out he was a so they hanged him. The Okhrana glowies deserve an effort post tbh.
