Lots of rich debate in that back and forth. Fair warning that Lenin is kind of a bore to read.\n\nThere's also texts by early revolutionaries on the general topic of how extreme is too extreme. Trotsky wrote \"Terrorism and Communism,\" for example, though I admit that I haven't read it. Unlike Lenin, Trotsky is usually an engaging writer."}
