Was he an actual philosopher king?

Lenin > Marx

Not even joking, Lenin is divine.

Lenin, Stalin, and Mao are some of the best people to ever exist, it nearly brings a tear to my eye thinking of how great they were.

I mean there's a reason why Lenin is still in his mausoleum.

...

The Cheka did a crackdown and found out about the spy plot after the assassination attempt.

Yes, really good. Look how happy these people were in this Maokino:

No, fuck off. The "cultural revolution" is a strong candidate for the worst policy decision of any socialist leader in history apart from the "Great Leap Forward" which was also Mao's fault. Progress was made in China in some regards due to socialism, but I don't see anything specifically admirable or likable about what Mao did.

Yeah he just liberated China from centuries of imperialism and reactionary forces

You don't even know what a PK is.

Marx didn't encounter the same revolutionary situation as Lenin did. It's not like Lenin laid the foundations for it, he just picked up on it really well. Marx could not have done the same.

The cultural revolution wasn't perfect but it wasn't the worst.

t. anti-people elitist beauracrat

I'd say the Sino-Soviet split was probably the worst one. But overall, he failed to bring socialism to China, enabling the revisionism of the Dengists. A lot of factors in life improved under Mao, but he fucked up quite a bit.

Depends on what period of Lenin's life we're talking about. Early on, when he published vulgar materialist and undialectical works like "Materialism and Empirio-criticism" you could not call him a philosopher king. However, after he was exiled to Western Europe, he read Hegel and learned the truth of Absolute Idealism, thus making him a philosopher king.

The poor public behavior and social etiquette of Mainland Chinese is almost purely due to the lingering effects of the Cultural Revolution. the Cultural Revolution replaced it with a more "egalitarian" value system where everyone is a peasant who disregards bourgeois social niceties, so everyone is equally shitty to everyone, and they were ok with it because that was the closest they could get to the ideal classless society.

This is absolute horseshit

Well… that's basically what I said.

People don't behave with that when instilled with camaraderie instead of capitalist alienation.
That attitude is a byproduct of Dengism and not of the cultural revolution.

the shooting did not kill lenin. atherosclerosis did.

Even if you're a socdem or anarchist you have to admit Lenin was pretty badass for being both a powerful theoretical figure as well as an organizer of revolution.

uphold leninism-psychedelicism

this
fuck socdems though

He was a god-king

Stalin>Marx

Stalin>Lenin tho.
It's easy to uphold Lenin and say stuff like "HE DID NOTHING WRONG". Every basic bitch says this. Meanwhile Stalin is much more controversial, because he was better. Why do you guys think the "STALIN WAS A BASTARDIZATION OF LENINISM" was spread by the CIA? Because he was better.

Wew lad. Stalin is more controversial in the west because the USSR reached the peak of its power under him and became the biggest threat ever to capitalism, so they had to demonize him through every means possible. Stalin himself would scold you for saying that he is better than Lenin.

Stalin developed the Soviet Union with Leninism into the era of socialism. At his time, socialist production became the most prevalent sector.
Both were great men.
btw funny thing about Zinoviev, he actually planned to kill Stalin and got locked up for that, still get's called a "Stalinist" by illiterate cretins.

Yes but I won't forget what he did to The Free Territory of Ukraine and Kronstadt.

He was backed by wall street Jews. Without the subversive shekels of capitalists Jews he would be have failed. There is nothing special about him really. He's just a figurehead for people like you to reimagine in your own minds into a commie god.

t. guy who never read a book

Wall street Jews were worried about another America existing. So they chose a path for Russia that would not compete with them. Capitalists gave you "muh communism".

Feeling the cognitive dissonance yet?

But it did.
Also proof beside that meme book were the only proof is ⛏️rotsky wallet being full of money while passing the border and something else regarding lenin wallet?

Another funnt thing is that he totally admits deserving to be locked up. Actually, I'm not sure tho, he even said he should have been shot

Yeah. You people are absolutely insane.

Oy gevalt! I've been banned from the MENSA board leftypol!
