I don't really understand why you think regurgitating Lenin will somehow make your "gotcha" about word-usage work.

Perhaps you're one of few people in the world who needs to read less Lenin, and more of others. He wasn't a prophet.

Read Losurdo, for example. https://twitter.com/ComradeHector/status/1380498691744743424

It's good to be exposed to this because it reminds me how much damage angry chauvinist nerds do to the general appeal of reading theory.

Dialectics goes out the window. Everything worth knowing was systematized by Lenin, apparently. History ended. https://twitter.com/ComradeHector/status/1380500374872805384

Read him more closely, I guess?

He's clear on the need to stop going "Back to Marx" and "Back to Lenin" in our formulations of future strategy, on pure economy over ideology (e.g. White Supremacist, Patriarchal ideology).
