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!

    @Owell1984 Btw, there is more to leftism/socialism than Marxism. There’s also people like Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, Benjamin Tucker, and Josiah Warren (although I haven’t read anything by the latter).

        @Owell1984 Are there? I can’t see them because I’m using Mastodon/Glitch-soc.
        I guess they just can’t handle contrary opinions. Behaviour I have noticed is common on Reddit, so it makes sense that it would also exist on a Reddit-like.
