too true. your apologetics for genocide unimaginably repugnant. even worse than your attempt to make someone else's political statement about you.
@SocDoneLeft
hmm yeah surprising that you'd tell people to vote for Democrats and also insist there's no revolutionary potential in the West... almost like the two are related and you're part of the problem...
From whining about the eternal truth of "Liberals will side with fascists over socialists because fascism doesn’t threaten capital" to proving that liberals will side with fascists over socialists because fascism doesn’t threaten capital in a few short steps.

The Penguin edition of Trotsky's History of the Russian Revolution arrived! Unlike my Haymarket edition, it didn't fall apart when I opened it, and pages aren't stuck together!

Checking you. Supporting public health measures that keep most people healthy is definitely leftist. Individualist opposition to public health measures is childish and right wing.

lol it's always hilarious to see Stalinites complain about "anticommunists" as if you aren't the most effective anticommunist counter-revolutionaries that have ever existed.
Finished this one a few days ago.
Its reputation is well-deserved; t's absolutely loaded with information. Definitely more academic and a slower read than "October," but very much worth it.
Liberals are really just broadcasting their ignorance.
-The Jacobins were liberals.

Correct, I don't want state-sponsored propaganda from BBC, NPR, NYT, WaPo, etc. to pollute my search results, but that is what this move will accomplish.

Lenin good but Stalin also good.
People who spend 90% of the day artificially antagonizing Lenin and Stalin with their newest eclectic reading techniques don't help the communist movement as much as they think.
