We’re all a little disappointed he didn’t turn out to be our Exact Type of Communist. You’re a little put out about his referencing Kaczynski and his Twitter retweets. Here’s why, despite that, I’m vehemently pro-Luigi and you should be too.
His arc is a normal dude in America. He’s a mid 20s Silicon Valley guy. He engages with mainstream ideas in his cohort, but is otherwise not particularly political. To the extent that he has an ideology, like for society at large, it’s the ideology of the dominant class.
He suffers under his material conditions, but like everyone feels powerless. Despite his position of relative privilege, he has an invisible disability, a really gnarly injury to his spine. He, like everyone else, and more than most, feels the injustice of the US healthcare system in his bones.
Kaczynski is the tinderbox that sparks the explosion, not because of Kaczynski’s ideology, but because of a simple proposition: political violence is possible.
From there, the man needs no political education. He doesn’t need Marx or Lenin. His education is literally welded into his spine. He knows What Is To Be Done, and he does it without Delay.
His (class) character should be judged not for muddled beliefs he had before he became a political actor, but rather for the political action he took. Not who he retweeted: who he killed.

Come on dude you're not even trying. If you just want to come in here and ignorantly troll a bunch of people vastly more knowledgeable about the history of the USSR you aren't welcome here.
The least you could do is post any source for your claims so we can explain why you are so woefully misinformed, regurgitating fascist/liberal talking points, or just straight up lying.
Who was in charge when the Soviets murdered the workers of the Free People's territory? How about when workers doing a labor strike got murdered in Kronstadt?
Can you please provide sources or are you just concern trolling? I genuinely cannot tell, because I am certain we could deconstruct that framing of "murdering workers" also Kronstadt is a TERRIBLE example.
Lemme know when you get bored of waiting
Yeah I coulda just banned them but curiosity getting the better of me.

Yes, we absolutely want another Lenin. You should read him sometime
I read what he did, and why.... makes me think Lenin is a bad idea.
Maybe instead, we should want another Subcommante Marcos...
Where are the Zapatistas today? What is their legacy? The Soviet Union fed its people, defeated the Nazis, and became a nuclear super power. I don't know what you've read about Lenin, but I suspect you've been lied to
They are still doing their AES... And have been for 30 years now. And they haven't tried creating a new set of oligarchs called "vanguards".
Oh, you didn't know...

I did.... ypu need to finish reading:
“In upcoming statements, we will describe the reasons and the processes involved in taking this decision,” the statement said. “We will also begin explaining what the new structure of Zapatista autonomy will look like, and how it was arrived at.”
They are still going strong mate: https://enlacezapatista.ezln.org.mx/2024/12/06/25082/
