yeah

and in an interview one of his bodygaurds said that he went out of his way to give people waiting for their late bus one day rides to their location

he's given plenty of lectures at universities too

he drove them himself

that too

so I don't agree with the very liberal view of history that says "Stalin was a big meanie that just wanted power and corrupted the soviet union with genocides and bad stuff"

also I like your pfp. BREAK THE CHAINS

sure he had some imperialistic aspects to him, and he had some questionable choices at times

but he's still my comreade

thanks bro

direct rule from london

cant use caps apparently

huh

it let me use caps

thats because half your sentence was lowercase, the entirety of my sentence was uppercase

ah

so "direct rule FROM LONDON" works

but not "DIRECT RULE FROM LONDON" I'm afraid

feelsbadman

so what are you @Deleted User? Anarchist? Libertarian Socialist?

democratic socialist

ah

but don't get me confused with a pussy social democrat

of course

i should probably just say luxembourgist

big difference between George Orwell and Berni Sanders

Luxembourgism huh? not bad

yeah

too bad she got killed by Bernie Sanders smh

liberals killed rosa luxembourg

social democrats killed rosa luxembourg

then again, not a huge difference between the two

still not really sure how I feel about the USSR and stalin. on one hand, he industrialized a backwards feudal nation, and turned it into a superpower. but on the other hand, he had the gulags and needlessly killed people and "counter revolutionarys"

yeah, Stalin is a pretty contraversial guy

I still accept him as my comrade for the sake of left unity, but I disagree with his uneseccary killing

yeah

talking about stalin makes me want to play hoi4

lmao @Shwiani the only thing we've done so far on that is "Famines happen all the time!"

other than that, this isn't a tankie thread

@Builderelf What's your view on commie furfags?
