Re: Lenin: immediate socialist revolution is IMPOSSIBLE

[iwp.ilo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (CEP )]

    Lenin, who was a genius, was very capable of making mistakes.  That
    was one of them, together with the support of a provisional
    government with the bourgeoisie after the fall of the Czar.

    But ... he noticed that, and corrected with the "April Theses",
    and paraphrasing Lenin himself "since he understood the question
    of Permanent Revolution, Lenin became the best Trotskyist that
    there was".

    Comradely,
    Carlos

    P.S.: Trotsky also made mistakes.  One of them: the question of the
    bolshevik party and the need for a resolute fight against the
    Menshevik. "Since he understood that -- Lenin wrote -- Trotsky
    become the best bolshevik" (quoted by memory).

    Stalin, on the other hand, remained unchanged: he supported the
    provisional government "insofar ... -- remember?) but then remained
    quiet until after Lenin's death and revived his revisionism in the
    form of the "Popular Fronts".

    Poor Ole Leche ... he will never understand these guys Lenin and
    Trotsky.  They are so ... so .... so dialectical!
