Perhaps I misunderstood the nature of these forums. I doubt I'll post here again.
Well, mostly this is a language-studying forum where people exchange their knowledge of language. Nothing else, really. The political section of this forum is only as good as the honest political views of the people writing in it. Lenin was a controversial figure in the beginning of the 20th century and he is controversial know. As much as Hitler, Stalin, Mao, JFK, etc.
