During the 1921 Volga famine Lenin used the mass starvation and cannibalism as a pretext to seize church property "with the most ferocious and merciless energy" and to shoot clergy and resisters. The valuables, it seems, were never used for famine relief.

In his essay "How to Organise the Competition?" Lenin called for cleansing Russia of "insects" and "vermin". In early Soviet graphics, the clergy were depicted as insects to be destroyed--as one caption had it--"in accordance with any...sanitary standard" https://t.co/Of69CHhrPt

Whereas Marx's analogy for religion was narcotic, Lenin's was alcoholic. In his 1905 essay, Socialism and Religion, Lenin wrote of religion as "state-clerical gin" in which "slaves of capital drown their human shape and their claims to any decent life" https://t.co/Of69CHhrPt
