Greene absolutely fries Eric Blanc holy shit. Gonna have to shield my eyes when he gets to the part where he skewers my boy Mike MacNair.

This book is basically just a paragraph of assertions followed by a block of quoted text from Lenin/Kautsky/Trotsky/Lars Lih etc backing these assertions. It’s very effective

Anyone who portrays Rosa Luxemburg as an “anti-Bolshevik” is clueless. The Queen herself said” All the revolutionary honor and capacity which western Social-Democracy lacked was represented by the Bolsheviks. Their October uprising was not only the actual salvation of the Russian Revolution; it was also the salvation of the honor of international socialism.”

“Despite his avowed Marxism, Kautsky’s views on revolution and socialism were dictated by his worldview, which was heavily influenced by Positivism and an anti-dialectical evolutionism. The defining trait of Kautskyism was that revolutions were strictly objective phenomena that socialists should patiently wait for, rather than actively organize.”
