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!

    I see a set pattern, 3-4 downvoters on each comment explaining socialism, and the opposing comments having equal upvotes. Are you so terrified of a superior ideology, wolves-in-sheep-clothing internet users?

    The most fun part is user account Orwell (@Owell1984), literally a fascist figure, created this question post.

      Are you calling Orwell a fascist figure? He risked his life fighting fascism.

          Can you explain why you think this, and also explain how you reconcile that opinion with his decision to move to Spain in the 1930s to fight Franco?
