Stalin maybe. Lenin? He was a hero to the working class. I'd really like to see your sources on how Lenin was one of "history's worst communist leaders".
Some instances on Lemmy are going through a Red Scare, I doubt they can explain.
I feel like someone who has an account on .ml might be biased
Also I'm not sure I'd call it a "red scare" when Hexbear is openly praising Putin and Xi Jinping
I am a Marxist, yes.
Hexbear doesn't praise Putin, but they do praise Xi, quite a bit.
I suppose there's not a lot of communist leaders to choose from in general, but Kronstadt happened on Lenin's watch and it would be a bit disingenuous to pretend this was controversy free amongst the left and working classes.
