which i can kinda get that perspective
mussolini undoubtedly had a powerful presence, charisma, and was extremely passionate
lenin in a way had all these same qualities and i have to agree that if mussolini had remained a socialist he probably would've been the leading face of the communists in italy, maybe not the brain of the party but certainly the face of it
a strong persona naturally attracts people to your cause; assuming the lenin quote is real that's probably what it's referring to
