i just woke up, and this is a little test - i just got banned from !slop@hexbear.net, and i'm NOT even sure if this is the right community to post this on. does anyone know?

that said, first off, i would like to sincerely apologize for calling the genocide over in gaza a "feud". i called it a feud because the countries of israel and palestine have been a war, but i realize now that me calling it a "feud" is sort of an understatement and is a bit insensitive. oh and i WASN'T pulling the ol 'both sides are bad' card - i strongly support palestine in this war in gaza.

secondly, i sincerely promise to act in good faith and learn a bit more when it comes to socialism/communism. i sincerely hope you forgive me.

if anyone has any resources to watch without losing focus, i'd appreciate it. thank you!

edit: i just edited the slop link. seriously!

As Weng Weiguang says, The Evaluation of Stalin is Essentially an Ideological Struggle. Marxist-Leninists don't idolize Stalin. At the same time, Stalin synthesized Marxism-Leninism, and oversaw the world's first socialist state during its most turbulent period. The CPC rates him as 70% good, 30% bad, and this rating is roughly orbited by most communist orgs. Those who denounce Stalin entirely, also denounce the USSR, and existing socialism.
