Is Adolfo just following Lenin?



Although I have been critical of Adolfo on a number of points,
in fairness, I have to say that overall his actions on the l'st could
be said to be consistent with the following arguments of Lenin.


I do not agree with them myself but
if admirers of Lenin do agree, it has to be asked if they
should not also act accordingly.




"One of the necessary conditions for preparing the
proletariat for its victory is a long, stubborn and
ruthless struggle against opportunism, reformism,
social chauvinism, and similar bourgeois influences
and trends, which are inevitable, since the proletariat
is operating in a capitalist environment.

If there is no such struggle, if opportunism in the
working class movement is not utterly defeated
beforehand, there can be no dictatorship of the
proletariat."



16 Dec 1919 "The Constituent Assembly Elections and the
Dictatorship of the Proletariat".
