@NoraDelvey @ajinkya_inferno He did do it, check out Inside Lenin’s Government by Lara Douds. Objective conditions outside the control of Bolsheviks like international isolation, the civil war, and the treachery of the left SRs is what led to the un democratic political regime

@HondaWang Have you read How the West Came to Rule by Alexander Anievas and Kerem Nisancioglu? It puts forward a satisfying framework that is neither Eurocentric and methodologically nationalist or left bourgeois third worldist.

Karl Kautsky, who Communists entirely know as a counterrevolutionary renegade for his politics in 1918, actually *led the charge* against ministerial socialism, his works “Road to Power” and “The Social Revolution” are guides to a strategy of opposition https://t.co/UzHizHskUj

@A_CommonName I know I'm always That Guy, but check out Karl Kautsky's book "The Road to Power" specifically chapter 9. This was a strategy well-elaborated and agreed upon over 100 years ago that led to the successful conquest of state power by the Russians
