“When he thunders his dogma,” wrote the cartoonist Robert Minor in 1918, “one sees the fighting Lenin. He is iron. He is political Calvin.” The New York Times reports that the Communist Party USA has just donated its massive archives to New York University. The paper also quotes Minor in such a manner as to hint that Lenin was gay. “‘And yet, Calvin has his other side. During all the discussion he had been hitching his chair toward me,’ he writes. ‘I felt myself queerly submerged by his personality.'” What’s that about? It’s like NYT liberal anti-Communist Beavis & Buttheadism.
