Communism for beginners: Left-Wing Communism by LENIN (Episode 10) – Conclusion TheFinnishBolshevik 2023-06-10 | This time we discuss Chapters 9 and 10 of Lenin's book "LEFT-WING COMMUNISM": AN INFANTILE DISORDER. The chapters discuss our relation to right-wing social-democrat opportunists and to ultra-leftists, as well as the process of winning over the masses for revolution. Lenin divides the latter task into 2 parts:1) winning over the vanguard2) winning over the broad massesLenin also discusses why we need to defeat both right and "left"-deviations for this goal.The textmarxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1920/lwc/index.htmAudiobookyoutube.com/watch?v=YKWYoRTyfdkPrevious videos in the seriesyoutube.com/playlist?list=PLbnLysSug0vR4-29AGfaHOYJLnSt3ihF2---------------------------------My patreonpatreon.com/TheFinnishBolshevikMy discorddiscord.gg/88JwkF5UhKMy blogmltheory.wordpress.comMy Emailthefinnishbolshevik@gmail.com

Sources of khrushchevite revisionism (just some thoughts) TheFinnishBolshevik 2022-11-20 | I'm going to further develop the ideas expressed in this video. After a bunch more research I want to make a video exploring the rise of revisionism in the USSR in much more detail.
