This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.

Is this words are real? I mean do we know the source about this quote?
Probably wasn't originally attributed by Lenin, not that I trust Snopes much. There's a line from "The Devil" in 1908 by a Dutch guy that reads "There are years, centuries, in which nothing happens, and there are days, like yesterday, into which a whole lifetime is compressed." Snope at least has that and that would've been in Lenin's life-time.
It seems I read a few years ago snopes is CIA adjacent.
Yeah, I agree, but they weren't lying about it being a line in The Devil dating back to 1908.
I mean I've consulted it recently, but there's always a salt keg nearby, as with most other media.
He has written similar things, as has Marx, though it's not an exact quotation. Seems to be a modern paraphrase.

It's like Marx's "history repeats itself" quote, which is more known as a paraphrase.
The exact verbatim quote can be traced back to George fucking Galloway lmao
