I loled at this passages. Despite being a commie himself Bely could take a joke and make fun of his own movement. Despite the rather complex language this book is quite satirical.

Aleksandr Ivanovich is sort of a charming neurodivergent for a terrorist. Nikolai Apollonovich is a whiny cute twink and his dad is right about him.

Sofia Petrovna needs better friends and would seriously benefit of owning a dildo, but unfortunately she's a weeb in 1900s Russia.

That's really not fair. The Tsar was on holiday, and had no idea anything like that would take place. Georgy Gapon should rather have been busy being a priest and spiritual leader, rather than stoking the masses around leftoid political causes. Gapon ended up dead in a dacha, murdered by other revolutionaries he got in bed with.

Gapon was an r-slured glowie who ended up choking on his own cover.

He was a glowie because he had been a revolutionary... how do you think the okrana managed to get these informants, like Malinovsky? These were revolutionaries that got caught and then folded to save their heads, but they were still revolutionaries nonetheless.
