I don't know if I'm being overly paranoid or what, but I can't tell if it's safe for me openly publish some spicy stuff under my legal name. Not to sound like I think I'm the most popular girl at school, but don't most prominent leaders go by pseudonyms the rest of their lives? Not saying I'm Lenin but...

EDIT: Alright comrades you've won me over. New name, new me.

Reminds me how Lenin was arrested in Kraków in 1914 for "spying", A-H gendarmes completely missing the fact he was de facto leader of big communist party and tons of illegal party correspondence he had out there in the open in his home, but they confiscated his completely legal notes about economy and statistics because lots of numbers and tables = spying.

@KKSankara@lemmygrad.ml yes you absolutely should.

Just thought to mention: Kraków was then part of the territory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Also while searching around, I've found this article claiming that Vladimir Lenin would " hang out with Polish heavyweight writers like Stanisław Witkiewicz and Stefan Żeromski" in the nearby Zakopane. I was unable to find any evidence for this though. Both of them were in Zakopane or Kraków at the time from what I gather.

it's unclear if they really hanged on. I do know Żeromski works are very heavily propagandised after 1989 to be portrayed in the anticommunist manner.
