Are there any good Tolstoy related conspiracy theories? He wrote a bunch about Free Masons in "War and Peace," there has to be something out there on that right? If people go full on crazy about "The Shining" I hope they can at least bother to go nuts about classic literature too.

There's got to be a conspiracy out there convincing people all those Russian authors with bland English translations are worth reading.

The Shining stuff mostly comes from the movie because Kubrick was a meticulous lunatic who made sure everything was just so, leading people to look for meaning in everything, plus there's that whole thing about him shooting the moon landing.

That's the stuff noone ever reads. Most of y'all are stuck in 1874.

Tolstoy was huge in the Russian intelligentsia near the end of the long 20th century. But atheist communism won over Christian anarchism. Doesn't mean he wasn't still hugely influential. The tolstoyan movement was bigger abroad than in Russia proper because of government censorship but it was still a big deal in Russia.
