But but but Trotsky was supposed to replace him! Not Stalin! Waaahhhhh!
Lenin's actual Opinion on Trotsky was basically "Super Smart, but what a fucking debatebro nerd. Don't give this guy power."
His opinion on Stalin was "Actually a stand-up dude despite our disagreements about nationalism and centralisation, but maybe don't insult my wife asshole, you're tearing the party apart with your dickishness. Also If we let him stay General Secretary it will fuck up the party composition, so give him a job that doesn't let him stuff the party with his supporters"
He went on to say "Now that the only two competent people in this circlejerk have been mentioned, let me start on the rest of you."
"Bukharin is barely a Marxist. Pyatakov has the political sense of a piece of cheese. Zinoviev and Kamenev are a bunch of fucking Libs. Dzerzhinsky is one bad day from turning Nazbol. And don't even get me started on the rest of you reprobate chucklefucks!"
Lenin was an antisemite and that's why he treated Trotsky, a Ukranian Jew, like a child. If he were an ethnic Russian he would have become the Premier of Russia in no time. Don't at me
Me fantasizing about Jewish General Leon Trotsky encircling the Nazi armies at Stalingrad instead of opportunist Zhukov
Black and Red Armies routing the fascist invaders out of The Democratic People's Republic of Ukraine all the way to Dunkirk
