In reading the vast works of Lenin and in particular the "science" of propaganda that evolved under Lenin's direction, it is amazing the similarities we are witnessing today around the world. It is perhaps one of the greatest studies in the propensity of human gullibility in the history of the world but more than that, upon delving into those propaganda tactics you can see a mirror today of the exact same tactics being employed.

There was a punitive censorship that quickly evolved where anything that was not approved either culturally, politically or Scientifically was effectively censored to the point that reality couldn't be questioned without consequence. It was a piecemeal control over both information and ideas to the point that it was an eradication of every semblance of independent thought and for the most part, the people were completely unaware that their vision of reality had been transformed.

They simply consumed what they were told was true and dutifully repeated the official line as though it was in fact real, without the necessity for questioning the narrative they were consuming.

"From the socialist point of view it is utterly senseless for an individual member of society to treat his body as inalienable personal property, because the individual is only one link in the evolution of the species from the past to the present.”

--Evgenii Preobrazhenskii
