I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.
Two years before the Russian revolution, Lenin said that he would never see the revolution in his lifetime. A good future may be closer then you think.
inshallah
Wait, really? I need to see a source for that because big if true.
It seems i was wrong. He did not say this two years prior, but in fact in january of 1917. Lenin wrote:
“We of the older generation may not live to see the decisive battles of this coming revolution. But I can, I believe, express the confident hope that the youth which is working so splendidly in the socialist movement of Switzerland, and of the whole world, will be fortunate enough not only to fight, but also to win, in the coming proletarian revolution.”

He definitely said at some point in the 20th century that he wouldn’t live to see the revolution. I would have guessed 1914, but it’s hard to search for.
