@TheTeacher How long should a leader rule, in your opinion?
The interest of proletariat is known. No need for the whole class to be present.
Consciously
At least
As long as they're needed. Right now, big leaders are needed to stand up against western imperialism.
And, I mostly mean the USA since my country is an asshole. I want them to leave North Korea and Venezuela alone.
The Party of the Proletariat is needed by his Class.
Is a head and a research center of the class.
Body must have a head.
To live.
Many people criticize Stalin for killing so many people. While I don't agree with all of his killings, his strong will helped the USSR during the first years of the Cold War. Future Soviet leaders should've had steel-forged wills like Stalin did. If that happened, the USSR might've still been around today.
I take issue with Stalin as well, but I will admit he was necessary. He was especially useful in WWII.
At least you're smart enough to do that.
I once met this person who said the US did more work than the USSR in WWII
That's just historically false.
There is a server called "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics". I joined it for actual Communist discussions but it's full of memes. While I love memes, nobody takes me seriously since they all completely hate Stalin.
I try to tell them about Stalin's achievements and they all say: Communsim doesn't work.
And I say: wtf it would if the West didn't always interfere.
I think the Soviets should have won the Soviet-Afghan war.
Invite them here and ask similar questions to them on our holy land.
The US giving guns to Pakistan to smuggle them to the Mujahideen is one of the most crucial reason why we have radical islamic terrorism at such a front these days.
Heh; good idea @Firefly
If the Soviets won, they would have easily contained the islamic terrorism. Plus, the USSR did far more for Afghanistan than the US has.
The US and several other nations tried to rebuild the Belt Road the Soviets did and couldn't.
They probably won't even come and make an excuse.
I don't know much about the Soviet-Afghan war; my history textbook is pretty biased because I'm in the US, but the US definitely fucked up when backing the Mujahideen.
Actually, neither my history textbook or teacher ever mentioned the Mujahideen by name even once, probably for this very reason.
Also, Deng Xioaping was a bitch. He fucked up everything Mao did.
What do you think of Zhou Enlai?
I haven't looked into him enough to give a fully thought out opinion.
I will say, I think he was a little naive and optimistic though.
Since he had this big dream of peace with the west.
What do you think of him?
Don't know enough about him, either.
The Mujahideen was the Iranian King, right?
Are you talking about the overthrow of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi?
Because that's not the Mujahideen we're referring to.
No, they were "freedom fighters" in Afghanistan when the Soviets came in.
We're referring to the US-backed Mujahideen forces in Afghanistan who pushed back the Soviets @Ditzy Doo
Then the US said oopsy doodles when they turned out to be terrorists.
