@chiefashley56 Lenin was awesome bro
he even said stalin was to iron fisted
-
Lenin was fully aware of the murderousness of Stalin and did virtually nothing -until it was too late- to stop his rise in the CP leadership. Lenin was a great politician and needed others less choosy to do his dirty work for him. As others have said he was responsible for using terror to subjugate the Russian populace. By the way I came here for the great tune.

@trotskyist5 Lenin was much less brutal but still he was no angel. I love many aspects of communism but Lenin's communism spread like all communist movemments, with red terror.

@StSimonMartyr I bet you don't like fouride in your water either

I agree only to a point... Steve does describe himself as a socialist, so there is an element of political reform and it is not just about change of heart. That said, Steve also describes himself as a pacifist, so don't think he would be all that sympathetic to Lenin. And in any case, he is writing in a post cold war context, and this came out right before the 2004 election, so the was as much about the loss of and silencing of the left within the US.

Great song. Beautiful drums and guitars, great lyrics. I'm a little confused here though.... is Lenin mentioned in this song? Or Trotsky? For you deaf listeners... the revolution described in this tune is a revolution of the heart. It's a revolution of the human soul, apolitical and non-ideological. Amazing how mindless and outdated rhetoric rears it's head in response to a word like "revolution". It's an extinct concept, guys. It came, it went. Y'all got feces for brains.
