Bertrand Russell forgets one thing - while Lenin did write maybe thousands of articles and dozens of books - including on philosophy - he was not really into theories, he was a researcher - he was interested in how to better screw off the heads of his political opponents. He was a bloody brutal revolutionary - and in 1920 he was busy fighting a war on multiple fronts - while building a repressive government of a huge country - while also practicing Red Terror (meaning, killing off real and potential opposition). And - Lenin never meant for the peasants to own land - that was a promise he never intended to keep, it was pure propaganda. So, my guess is, he honestly laughed at Prof. Russel’s naïveté. The guy was as smart as they come - but a focused bloody bastard.
