    Why did I read the comments on that video :agony-deep:

    "MLism is nothing, it has no tenants or ideologies. it's just a defense of whatever authoritarian government needs to do to oppress it people."

    "MLism is an ideology invented by authoritarians like Stain to describe their beliefs. Makes sense that they act indistinguishably from nazis on twitter."

    "ML as a term and as a concept was literally invented by stalin to describe the state ideology of the soviet union. Lenin himself never used the terms leninism or marxism-leninism. That was stalin. The whole cult of personality around lenin was created by stalin to legitimize his own rule. Why would anyone use such a term to describe himself? If you are not a fucking lunatic stalinist, that is? Which is what most of these ppl are, apparently."

      Lenin himself never used the terms leninism or marxism-leninism.

      Marx didn't use the word Marxism. Darwin didn't use the term Darwinism. etc.

        Christianity as a term and as a concept was literally invented by Constantine to describe the state ideology of Rome. Jesus H. Christ himself never used the terms Christian or Christianity. That was Constantine. The gnostic cults around Christ were co-opted by Constantine to legitimize his own rule. Why would anyone use such a term to describe himself? If you are not a fucking lunatic Constantinist, that is? Which is what most of these ppl are, apparently. Checkmate Christians.

        whoops this one is actually a better argument now that I've completely recontextualized it and added a spicy dash of my own historical revisionism, but in all seriousness what the fuck kinda quarter-baked points are these?

            I changed the words around in the same quote you were responding to from the top-level comment, so it's a heavily-edited version of a youtube comment on a V*ush video
