• Good riddance to bad rubbish

    From Keith F. Lynch@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jan 21 23:11:10 2024
    Today marks 100 years since the death of Vladimir Lenin. The man
    so bad that it took his successor, Stalin, to make him look good
    in comparison.

    But at least he meant well. Or at least he meant something.

    True! How will you celebrate? ;)

    But the ghost never goes away. From time to time I meet people who are
    Lenin fans, I see Cheguevara t-shirts on a lot of young people, so I think there is a saying that each generation has to win their freedom anew, if
    not risking to repeat historys mistakes.
