  V.I. Lenin 3
Lenin had to convince this segment of society, who were in the on-going process of taking great pride in their own ethnic background, to join forces but at the same time had to address their problems with Russian oppressors.
Lenin saw this as “too many hands in the pot.” Russia was a police state at this time and the idea of being democratic as well as effective to Lenin was not going to transpire.
Lenin introduced the idea that the only form of government for Russia should be the soviets, and all power ought now to pass to the soviets throughout the country.

 TIME 100: V.I. Lenin
Lenin was the initiator of the central drama — the tragedy — of our era, the rise of totalitarian states.
A bookish man with a scholar's habits and a general's tactical instincts, Lenin introduced to the 20th century the practice of taking an all-embracing ideology and imposing it on an entire society rapidly and mercilessly; he created a regime that erased politics, erased historical memory, erased opposition.
As a lawyer, Lenin became increasingly involved in radical politics, and after completing a three-year term of Siberian exile, he began his rise as the leading communist theorist, tactician and party organizer.

 V.I. Lenin 2
The first was the unexpected passing of Lenin’s father Ilya, and what was a surprise to everyone in the family the arrest from plotting the assassination of Alexander III and eventual hanging of elder brother Alexander (Sasha).
The biggest misconception of Lenin's rise to a revolution was the sensationalism of saying Ulya planted these seeds of a revolutionary mindset in the young Volodya and the hanging of his brother Sasha pushed him over the edge.
Firstly, Lenin's father was deeply pious, conservative, and most importantly thought highly of Alexander II for his family had flourished under the tsar’s reforms.

 Weekly Worker 292 Thursday June 10 1999
Lenin was deferential to the authority of Kautsky.
Lenin's political perspective in 1905 was coloured by Kautsky's dogma that extending bourgeois democracy was the inevitable historical gateway to socialism in Russia.
Lenin made this point in 1917: "Private land ownership in Russia cannot be abolished except by carrying through a gigantic economic revolution by bringing the banks under popular control, by nationalising the syndicates and adopting the most ruthless revolutionary methods against capital" (VI Lenin Between the Russian revolutions London 1978, p328).

 Leader
In November 1891 VI passed the law examination as an external student at St. Petersburg University, and then for about a year and a half he was an assistant barrister to the Samara Cicuit Court, working on about ten rather petty cases.
After this VI was convinced that regular practizing of law was not for him; his interest was in the revolutionary ideas, and in describing and promoting them by speaking and publishing.
As an editor of Iskra Lenin hoped to bring cohesion to the increasingly fragmented Russian Social Democratic movement, and it was in this leadership role he became known as Lenin, the acknowledged leader of the Bolshevik faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party.

 Russia 1917 - Festival of the oppressed
VI Lenin, leader of the Bolsheviks, started from the general theory of oppression developed by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels and applied it to the specific conditions of the Russian workers’ movement.
Lenin argued that the struggle against oppression was actually a defining characteristic of a revolutionary socialist.
Lenin was just as aggressive in challenging any notion of, ‘painting the leadership of the oppressed with communist colours’, to paraphrase his formulation regarding national oppression.

 LENIN'S TOMB: Racism, capitalism and empire.
One of the claims of Gindin and Panitch in their book on Global Capitalism and American Empire is that Lenin elevated the conjunctural situation of inter-imperial rivalry in the early 20th Century to a principle of late capitalism.
Lenin, however, called his pamphlet "Imperialism: the Latest Stage of Capitalism", and that is certainly the phrase he uses in the pamphlet, along with "a special stage of capitalism" (see Lenin, op cit, chapter VII; ‘Notes from the Editors’, Monthly Review, January 2004, Volume 55, Number 8).
Nevertheless, the narrative Lenin provides would tend to suggest that there is a unilinear process of concentration, monopolisation, the internationalisation of finance capital and then its merging with the state.

 Maxim Gorky. V.I. Lenin
Lenin spent all his free time among the workers, questioning them about the smallest details of their existence.
I know that Vladimir Lenin had no equal even among the biggest men of his Party, but he did not seem to be aware of this, or rather-did not want to be.
