Your memes are the backbone of the online communist community at this point.

The ones I shared on r/ChapoTrapHouse in 2019, like this and the space race one, are by far the most proliferated. The reach of that sub explains why the feds had to shut it down.

Imagine a bunch of shitposters scaring the shit out of the feds. This year they have already nuked 3 more communist subreddits.

I suspect for some folks Stalin is bad because anyone else would have let the USSR capitulate to the wehrmacht invasion.

Funny that this is the exact same "logic" the libs use to try to defend running a pro-zionist, pro-corporate, pro-billionaire slimeball in the last US presidential election - "But Trump was worse!"

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 month ago

It's not just a matter of the US being worse, this undermines the credibility of every single accusation regarding human rights that the US makes about any other country

Stalin wasn't a saint, but he is overly demonized as compared to his peers. There has been a century of anticommunist mud-slinging at him, and now that the soviet archives are somewhat open, we can begin to actually judge him properly. Unlike Trump, Stalin was the leader of the world's first socialist state, and a good portion of soviet success in their earlier years can be attributed to policies he pushed for.

I know that after my death a pile of rubbish will be heaped on my grave, but the wind of History will sooner or later sweep it away without mercy.

I have come to communism because of daddy Stalin and nobody must come and tell me that I mustnโ€™t read Stalin. I read him when it was very bad to read him. That was another time. And because Iโ€™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.
