i saw it said and it is reposted on ml blogs or self proclaimed stalinists blogs, but can’t find it on the search engine for marxists.org or marx2mao

though marxists.org is a trot org iirc

closest thing i can find is some stuff on google books

edit okay so it looks like lenin replies with this phrase maybe?

edit 2

okay my acrobatics with the google search engine is mid but i seem to be getting somewhere

edit 3 okay so stuff gets difficult cause i don’t speak russian (in Russian). Dushenko K.V. Russkie politicheskie citaty ot Lenina do Yeltsina: chto, kem i. kogda bylo skazano Russian Political Quotes from Lenin to Y… (google preview cuts out there)

edit 4 so i think, after i translated the thing and maneuvered the search bar function that the paragraph comes from the ***russian *** book “Dushenko K.V. Russian political quotes from Lenin to Yeltsin: what was said, by whom and when.”

edit 5 was watching kay and skittles “judas and the black messiah” and thinking to myself about how much of a massive hater vibe this puts off
