It was then that Lenin changed did a U-turn from 'What is To Be Done', embraced libetarian socialism, and wrote 'State and Revolution.' However following the ascension of the Bolsheviks to power in October they repressed the workers control of production and forced Bureaucratic managers from the party onto the factories. The counter-revolution was not in the removal of the PG but in the reversal of the workers gains, and ultimately the suppression of Soviet democracy. This was the Rev Betrayed

@HispanicIsNotARace1 ...also, not all anarchists are libertarians, and certainly the converse is not generally true.

Trotsky and Lenin were two adept and steadfast Jews guised in Russian heritage. I will rejoice the day the Israeli empire is complete to wipe away the unfit of this world, they shall rule their communistic empire with a subtle and deceptive hand moving the masses (increasing in number as the lower I.Q. races such as the blacks) to be their orcs while they rule from their Ivory Towers in New York, Tel Aviv, and London, basking in all of their and their ancestors glory. The day will come.
