I was wondering why Marxism was still a thing and this placed seemed to be filled with Marxists. So, why? Didn’t the fall of USSR teach us anything? Do today’s Marxists think that USSR did something wrong? In other words, will they do anything different than the dictators of the soviet union? Also, some here seem to admire Stalin. I would really have to try hard to find a community that would admire Hitler but apparently admiring Stalin, another mass murder seems to be perfectly fine!

    Also, many b*lgians still admire leopold 2. him and churchill dont get the same weight as hitler cuz the majority of people that were tortured/enslaved/given disease/killed were not white.

      Yup, and we’re seeing this today as well in the way the west treats refugees from the Middle East compared to refugees from Ukraine, and how everyone in the west slept through the horrors NATO has been perpetrating around the globe but all of a sudden woke up when a country full of white people was invaded.
