The short version of that: it’s nearly impossible to out exercise poor diet but much less difficult to out diet poor exercise. (obviously, you still need exercise, but you don’t need to train like an olympic swimmer to lose weight if you make better dietary choices)

I’ve never read Kautsky, so I’ll have to take Lenin at his word since he was the first author to successfully lead a socialist revolution.

My first interaction with that text was Marx Madness podcast, they had plenty of love for Kautsky dunking as well.

State and Rev also has some of Lenin’s best one liner quips ever written, definitely recommend that one. I should probably give it a second reading, it’s a real banger of a book.
