There are contextual ties to the current stage of capitalism in quotes from Lenin, Marx, Stalin, Mao, etc. Socialism, anarchism and communism are all equal in the eyes of the rules, but they all lead to communism. Socialism is early stage communism. And these quotes do fit the theme of the community with a sub description says ‘advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology.’ Reform is a liberal capitalist ideology. They believe that they can change the system from within. History tells us, well beyond 100 years ago, that reform is not possible.
Like the person you’re replying to said, if you don’t know where you came from, you don’t know where you’re going. If you don’t know the history you will repeat it. The oligarchy relies on us not knowing our history of what works and what does not work so we can continue this infinite loop that gets us nowhere.

I think the anarchists, at the very least, would disagree with your assertion, but I acknowledge the later points and appreciate the thoughtful response. I still disagree that merely puppeting Lenin is actually related to late stage capitalism since, as you point out, it’s just history. It has nothing to do with capitalism’s late stages without context for discussion, and there is no context given here. It’s just parroting the guy and not actually saying anything with the quote. If the salty american is trying to make a point, I haven’t seen it in any of these posts. What, specifically, is the reformism we are seeing in capitalism’s late stage?
