    Not the commenter but tbh some see it as a continuation of Lenin’s ideology which broke away from Marxist lines

    Lenin started something like a reactionary coup of the concept, forming into a fundamental shift. Sure it can be explained by the situation if one wants to have justification for it

    While Lenin claimed to apply Marxism, he introduced significant changes to diverge from Marx’s vision.

      Lenin didn’t break away from Marxism, he returned the broader Communist international to Marxism from opportunism and revisionism, and then applied Marxist analysis to his present conditions.
