Your own citation says there is no basis for it in Lenin, like what did I just quote?
As I said above, if you can produce this quote, I will send you $50. If you’re not comfortable with that for identity reasons I will send $50 to any charity you specify (that isn’t right wing but you wouldn’t do that) and post the evidence. It is actually worth at least that much to me since I’ve spent an insane amount of time trying to find this reference.
I’ve had hexbears and .mls tell me it came from an obscure periodical that isn’t translated into English, but when I used google translate to convert the entire article, paragraph by paragraph, I never found anything even glancingly close.
If you find a reference by Marx, Luxemburg, Gramsci, Bordiga, Levi, Pannekoek, Plekhanov, Zinoviev, Trotsky, Stalin, Dunayevskaya – basically any major left wing revolutionary theoretician of renown I will still honor the arrangement because it’s worth it to me. Please find the reference or leave me alone. I can’t state my case any better without writing a full length article and I’m tired of this back and forth, I’m sure you are too.
Jesus christ, the general was citing something he thought was a quote…
He didn’t make that shit up. Like I said, Lenin wrote something similar years before.
