i think he changed tune after 1948 (?), i remember there was some recalibration time of italian leftcoms/particularly him in the 30-40s. hmm but now i can't find that quote, maybe i'm wrong
In an article he wrote in 1960 he condemned the Soviet Union both for the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact AND for siding with the allies to defeat the nazis.

Oh oh and here's the best (worst) bit.
Well there's a reason why Gramsci died in prison while Bordiga didn't.
Gramsci supported the Arditi del popolo and other early anti fascists while bordiga spent the early 20s threatening to revoke membership of the communist party of those who engaged in or supported radical anti fascist action.
Bordiga fucking suuuuuucked.
