Yeah, also, lenninsist/Stalinist also have a weird idea about that statement.
Permanent revolution from his writings means that he saw that the bourgeoisie were always creeping back in power and building a new powerbase in the new framework.
What I think he meant (because it’s not very clear from his letters) is that he wanted countries to never solidify power in an elite group and instead act like a new revolutionary countty all the time. That does not mean actual revolution forever. I might be wrong but that’s how I read it.
Was it feasible or realistic ? I don’t know, but I know that Mao said about the same thing after the cultural revolution.
