@Meaningness Have you read anything on Lenin's epistemology? This paper looks interesting: https://macsphere.mcmaster.ca/bitstream/11375/10726/1/fulltext.pdf … . Especially the folowing quote from the introduction:
At first reading, this sounds like what had been the mainstream philosophical view for centuries before Lenin? (Cf. Rorty's _Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature_.)

That is very likely, after all it didn't fall from the sky. I have just come in contact with Leninist thought, so I don't know it well enough to point out some interesting differences. I haven't read that Rorty book, I'll look into it, thanks.

The Rorty book is a classic. It was the main way the mid-20th-century German and French understanding of the limits of traditional epistemology was revealed to American analytic philosophy.
