Useful Idiots
Useful Idiots is a pungent phrase usually attributed to Lenin. His useful idiots were going to help him conquer the world but illness and death caught up with him first. In the event Joe Stalin carried on where he left off. Uncle Joe was not an idiot but he was very useful in the mass murder line.
There are people and sources who claim that he did not originate the expression. The Wikipedia is one such but then it is a propaganda machine. See what they have to say at useful idiots. For something on their attitude to the truth go to Wikipedia. However Wikiquote.org gives a series of Lenin quotes which tell us of an unrelenting savagery which accords well with the reality.
History
and Impact of Marxist Leninist organizational theory: "useful
idiots," "innocents' clubs," and "transmission
belts".
Was written by Professor
Roche who has read his way over the ground and actually understands
what it is all about. Transmission
belts presumably refer to propaganda systems which impose ideas on
the peasant masses and command hierarchies which tax them and control
them.
