I’ve got a soft spot for “Dialectical and Historical Materialism” (though I can’t claim I understand it all), but I remember liking the letter where he admonishes a comrade for calling themself a “Stalinist”. I wish I could remember which one that was!

I like his writing style, and the way he lays his points out. There’s still a lot in the archive for me to read!

    Don’t spread misinformation. There’s one history agreed on. Russian history is a fantasy one.

      ****"

      I base on history agreed by historians all over the world. Simple as that.

      How do you reconcile your two positions?

        I consider Russian regime historians more as fantasy writers than real historians.

          Were you lying when you said you “base on history agreed by historians all over the world.”?

          Are you the only one who approves who is a historian?

          If your position is agreed on only by every historian who agrees with you, why do you assume it’s universal?

      There’s one history agreed on.

      If you had ever taken any history class beyond a high school level you would know that this is not, nor has it ever been, true, for ANY period of history EVER
