Not always, early on he respected Kautsky greatly, only when Kautsky sided with mensheviks he started to criticize him, and around 1915 when the attempts at reconciliation of socialdemocrats failed and Kautsky proven to be lead figure of the socialchauvinists Lenin goes full bag of bricks on him.

Fair! That's of course why Lenin's later works are so anti-Kautsky, but these are also some of his most important works so they seemed outsized in my head.
