"All this comic does is bend history into absolute knots to try and sell an image of what a democratic revolution would look like, but the tone and telling it represents is blatantly revisionist to a fucking maddening degree."

I'd say that's what they're talking about.

And I agree with them, imo this comic is absolutely not working for getting the intended message across.

Edit for clarification: i realized during first reading that the devil's advocate in the comic was meant to represent USA republicans, but I still think that the comic doesn't work.

Getting the joke doesn't make it funny or any less irresponsible a way to invoke a historical period for sending a message.

This strip is not even about the actual Bolsheviks.

Have you skipped over the first panel?
