I haven't criticised anything, it's funny to see you get defensive and accusing over nothing.... a common communist propaganda. Before commenting on the post, how about you READ it first?

Lenin does seem like an iconic personality. Personally, I would be against letting my body be exhibited like an object in the museum. Hi Jorein, Welcome to my blog and thanks for your message!

He was a revolutionary who wanted to liberate the workers from imperialism. The capitalist and stalinist media abused Lenin for their own anticommunist propaganda.He needs to be buried. He needs no luxurious mausoleum. Lenin was a man of the workers and never wanted to become a icon. Lenin was turned into a religious icon of the Stalinist Soviet Union.

Stalin, during his rule, portrayed himself as a great leader on par with Lenin. However, after his death, his popularity crashed as one by one his blunders during WW2 and negative effects of his other policies such as labor camps emerged. He was then systematically dethroned from glory and the removal of his body was a part of that process. :) hehehe, Soviet rule was full of such conspiracies.

He sure looked well groomed and stylish. But I don't know if that was in real life too, maybe his only statues and murals were ordered to look good. hehe! Thanks Sid!
