Truly nothing at all tone deaf about calling Lenin a mass-murderer while events transpire in West Asia and Africa as a whole and Palestine in particular, all while things are pretty shit for working people even in the Imperial Core.

I think the funny thing to me is all the chuds (namely Westerners but all over really) thinking there’s some grand conspiracy by the education systems and media to whitewash and minimize the “threat of communism”, as if they don’t already demonize Lenin. If they did what they wanted and tried to paint him as a black-hearted baby-eating psycho, the propaganda would be easily transparent and harder to impress upon people, who’d then get their information from less bombastic and more “nuanced” sympathetic sources. Really, it’s much more effective anti-communist propaganda to paint the Russian Revolution as a well-intentioned but doomed and bloody attempt at making a better, more “equal” world. It’s why the CIA funded Animal Farm and not something out of deranged White Russian propaganda publications.

Also, on another post, of fucking course a bjp-cool is calling him a mass murder at a time when the Britbongs murdered millions of Indians in droves through starvation to keep profit margins good.
