the great proletarian revolution

28 April 1919 1. Require the Moscow Cheka to carry out merciless arrests among the strikers and delegates, ignoring previous considerations. 2. Call Khalatov to the Council of People’s Commissars by nine o’clock. 3. Require Kamenev immediately to send for Red printers from Petersburg. N. Lenin____________________ clearly is there is no room for disputing the utopian nature of the “worker’s paradise”…even if the edenic nature is disputed by the workers themselves…if there is dissent it isn’t a utopia so send for “reliable” printers to keep the presses rolling while the secret police deal with the malcontents and restore the teleological balance. the great proletarian revolution wasn't about workers any more than the trump presidency is about making the nation "great" again...revolts by the masses are always co-opted by one elite or another...be they leather clad chekists or quasi-legal swindlers in business suits...always someone who "knows" what the masses need.
ho...mao...the original 20th century undead has company, if not competition...nosferatu lives...
