Stalin's Major Theoretical Contributions to Marxism
I have come to communism because of daddy Stalin and nobody must come and tell me that I mustn’t read Stalin. I read him when it was very bad to read him. That was another time. And because I’m not very bright, and a hard-headed person, I keep on reading him. Especially in this new period, now that it is worse to read him. Then, as well as now, I still find a Seri of things that are very good.

So what you’re saying is, large parts of your family were nazis. Got it!
lib is when anti genocidal dictator?
I encourage you to go to Russia and check yourself, maybe ask a few Russians. Hopefully you end up on the frontline pretty fast and stop posting shit like this.
Or at least maybe go to some post-soviet country and ask the elderly how great it was under the communism. Those who survived it of course.
I encourage you to take your own advice and find out how completely wrong you are
thankfully I do not have cause I actually am an eastern european.
Try talking to anyone who was actually alive to remember the soviet union
The majority of those who lived in the USSR want it back, especially Russians. Further, 63,000 new KPRF members over the last 4 years, a huge wave of soviet pride with over 1 million celebrating the Immortal Regiment, and more.
The Russian people long for the return of socialism. This number is higher among the elderly. Please stop inventing fantasy to match your narrative, it’s deeply unserious behavior.
Unserious are your source choices my man, everyone can invent their own truth. Not much more to say tbh.
What on Earth are you talking about? This is publicly available knowledge from numerous sources.

The Russians joining the KPRF are not the ones 90+ and older that remember Stalin, but the 20-50 range, many of which remember the USSR, but also many of which have grown up in the misery of capitalism.
Side-note, are you suggesting I get paid to be a communist? I certainly wouldn’t mind, if you can find a benevolent sponsor for my posting online that would be much appreciated!
You mean the elders that to a huge portion miss the USSR, because they found out that the West fucked them over with their propaganda and now they have no healthcare or housing? Sure.

The gulag didn’t happen.
And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is, that’s not his fault.
And if it was, he didn’t mean it.
And if he did, the victims deserved it.It obviously did happen. Most of the prisoners were common criminals, while 1/4–1/3 were political prisoners, like those who sided with and/or fought for Tsar Nicholas II.
What didn’t happen was The Gulag Archipelago, a work of fiction by an anti-communist & anti-Semite[1][2].
During the WWII Nazi invasion, the fatality rate was high, but still lower than in Tsarist Russia. And it wasn’t a life sentence for most. Most people served their term and were released, like almost any other prison system.
The system ended in 1960, while forced prison labor is still enshrined in the US constitution and still happening today.
Uh huh. So we’re at the “it wasn’t that bad” stage.
Do you dispute the data?
The verifiably correct one, yeah, fucking duh
Yeah, because it in fact wasn’t as bad as the Nazi war propaganda and the western Cold War propaganda made it out to be.
Better than the current US prison system by a wide margin
Yet another wonderful .world lib response!
Simping for mass murderers is so progressive!
The state department thanks you for your service patriot
