    At this point this obsession with Lenin becomes truly annoying. Especially, if we consider the fact that this is now spreading among different comunities on different instances. I am not against people posting about historical quotes, but posts about particularly this person appears way to often from russian accounts that idolize him in their USSR related religion.

    And then fun part is that this quote is, in fact, turned to be a manipulation speech to push and encourage workers to revolution only to not keep his promises and indeed to do everything for the survival of his new regime. Basically, he is not better than any other filthy politician.

      Lenin was correct, and still is today. Lemmy was made by communists, communists have been here since the beginning. I’m not Russian either. Lenin kept his promises, the soviet union dramatically uplifted the working classes, doubling life expectancy, democratizing the economy, and developing out of the feudal squalar they existed in beforehand.

      Communism is the answer.

      https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Lemmy

      Lemmy was created in August 2019 by two communist developers known as Dessalines and Nutomic. Their goal for Lemmy was to provide an open-source alternative to Reddit that anyone could self-host and federate with other Lemmy instances, effectively exchanging content between platforms.

      Uh no, that’s BlueAnonsense. Previously.
