Nah, it's a pretty popular meme in Marxist circles making fun of reformism. Here's an example:

The super obvious editing is part of the joke, it isn't a sincere belief in the edited statement but pointing out the absurdity of the statement in combination with the revolutionaries making them. With the recent wave of social democrats winning elections against establishment liberals, an ongoing struggle right now is in understanding the historically proven limitations of social democracy.
