i was just trying to add lenin to my miitopia party and i find this deeply unhinged shit

do you want to fuck vladimir lenin? test your compatibility with vladimir lenin! i'm sorry, if you're overweight vladimir lenin will not fuck you because "Overweight directly contradicts the type of personality Vladimir is trying to project. Straight lines and square corners accent his good physique and enhance his appearance as a leader."

also "Who is Vladimir Lenin? He is a male celebrity." is a deeply fucking cursed opener.

Vladimir Lenin has the potential within him to become a spiritual teacher, and if he will find the opportunity and inner resources to reach his full potential, he will be remembered for generations. But even if not, Lenin will still have a strong, spiritually empowering influence on others.

what in the esoteric fuck

He is generous, kind, and attractive. Yet, he is baffles by the admiration and adoration bestowed upon him. He moves well and gracefully, must seek out physical exercise and limit the sweets and dairy he craves to keep himself from becoming plump and round.

:what-the-hell:

like this paints a... decent? light on the dude but it is so fucking detached from any sort of reality that it feels like fucking weird obsessive fanfic

      My bet is that somebody became aware of it because it got referenced in a book, somebody was related to somebody who worked on the movie and there was something that had some acknowledgement of who else was involved or there was a newspaper listing from that time referring to the cast, director and/or release date. None of this would explain the Vladimir Lenin connection.

      Going with the former point, it reminds of how James Rolfe was talking lost horror movies and that a book called The Vampire Book: The Encyclopedia of the Undead claims a movie called Dracula was made in Russia in 1920. There has been no reference to this any place else (that was not sourced from the book's claim) and there no proof that it existed.

      From what I saw, a company called Politica Film was involved with it and an alternative title was Un'alba di Lenin (A Dawn of Lenin).

      Realistically, Lenin probably had nothing to do with the movie and the credit he receives for the play could have been because it was "based" off of his writing, therefore meaning he had a role in the creation.
