: SDF: Here is where I stop reading. Anyone who has been fooled by the legacy of Lenin has not read Lenin, mostly a mass of divisive, bickering attack-prose is what he wrote, nor has he read the important secondary literature such as Julius Braunthal's 3-part HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL, notably part 2, nor has he adequately read the theoretical literature on Leninism, notably Johann P. Arnason's THE FUTURE THAT FAILED. I cannot think of a worse thing that could have happened to the socialist movement, than Lenin.

You have nothing to say? Are you a socialist or a dreamer? Are you one of these neo-socialists who think it will all just happen. I thank you for your suggested reading, but would contend that Arnason is not a truthful analysis
