      The social democrats of that era would’ve drafted all of you to go slaughter each other in the trenches for literally no reason, and you’ll never forgive Lenin for not doing that.

        Lenin pulled the country out of slaughter in the trenches so he could go do some slaughter at home.

          Yeah, he shot the people who were trying to keep feeding everybody into a meat grinder, seems pretty based.

            That’s not all he shot. Socialists and Communists with differing views, Anarchists, Republicans, and peasants trying to be left alone all got shot too.
