Those hexbears really take it too far, wasn't it Marx who said

We have no issue with imperialism and we ask no issue with imperialism from you. When our turn comes, we shall not make late rent payments.

The other day I was looking up what Lenin said about Revolutionary Defeatism and it's like reading it there's no way he wouldn't have spammed PPB at people lol

This is an instance of high-flown phraseology with which Trotsky always justifies opportunism.

The phrase-bandying Trotsky has completely lost his bearings on a simple issue.

(Bukvoyed and Semkovsky give more direct expression to the “thought”, or rather want of thought, which they share with Trotsky.)

Had Bukvoyed and Trotsky done a little thinking, they would have realised that they have adopted the viewpoint on the war held by governments and the bourgeoisie, i.e., that they cringe to the “political methodology of social-patriotism”, to use Trotsky’s pretentious language

Many of them will reply that it is impossible, as Kautsky has done, thereby fully proving his social-chauvinism.

Lenin was a poster.

the funniest thing about reading Lenin is the sense that you're reading forum drama from a hundred years ago and that he never stops dunking. hence my thesis that theory is the highest form of dunk.

If Twitter had existed in 1905 there would have been not leftist revolutions in the 20th century because no one on the left would ever have logged off.

Theory: When you do years of research, countless revisions, peer review, and finally publish 500 pages of dense academic work to prove OP is wrong.
