Where can I read some examples of Lenin's humour? Without having to read through all of his works of course
State and Revolution reads like a Twitter thread. The whole book. It could’ve been posted by any online leftist in its entirety and fit right in.
Call-outs of his contemporaries basically calling them libs, scare quotes galore, referring to social democrats as “social chauvinists” every time he brings them up, references to previous posts. Lenin really was one of the OG posters.
RIP Lenin you would’ve loved Maoist Standard English
This is unironically exactly what State and Revolution is. Including BigDaddy69, because all of these people were using ~~screen~~ pen names!
