I am a Communist, and believe Communists should stand in #Solidarity. #CPRF supports the Russian SMO.
I stand with my Russian comrades. I stand with Russia.
If that upsets you, please block me and go back to licking NATO imperialist boots.

71 years ago, on March 5th, communist revolutionary Joseph #Stalin died.
Here are 10 recommended texts by Stalin contributing to the development of #Marxist theory and criticism.
Stalin’s works are concise, and important reading for proletarians and oppressed people worldwide.
I've watched people get so angry over this post - I've watched it get a mini-bot attack, or organized attempt at a "ratio" (like that doesn't just help it gain traction).
And all of the detractors - every single one - only solidifies its main statement.
JV Stalin is the most lied about man in history. And even today, decades after he is dead and gone, his name can send the elites and their toadies running for the hills. (Or in this case, to their bot farms.)
Not a single one of them had the courage to read the link.
Not a single one.
It has been two years since the beginning of the Special Military Operation in the Ukraine. Aside from internal reflection, in terms of the rest of the world, the main thing we've learned is that they are scared. They are scared because after decades of languid attempts to join the world of cozy consumerist decay, we have started to formulate an idea. North Korea has parades with tanks and missiles just like the USSR did, or any other third-rate dictatorship: such things do not scare them at all. But the idea that Russia is a country of and for Russians, and that it will protect Russians with absolute contempt for the illegitimate borders of 1991...
And not just the borders - we've finally found the courage to say that the entire post-1991 world order, based on a monstrous humiliation and oppression of Russians, must be reevaluated, and will be reevaluated, and it is more than just words - these words are fortified by the hearts and arms of hundreds of thousands of Russian heroes. This prospect has them shaking with hysterical fear. "We do not recognize your stupid Communist borders, we will save our Russian brothers and sisters from under the yoke of international gangsters and murderous peasant idiots, et pereat mundus!" - this is an idea that cannot be refuted by McDonald's and Netflix, and this scares them, because that's all they have.
I often think about a video from the very beginning of the war: a Russian convoy driving along a road outside some town in Whatever oblast, and some local guy walks up to one of the tanks and starts yelling at the soldiers: "Turn around, go home, we didn't come to your land, you came to our land, go away!". And one of the tank crew just looks at the guy and calmly says - "I'm on MY land".
The path may yet be long, and we have stumbled a lot, and we will continue to stumble a lot, but Russia is finally coming home - not just geographically, but spiritually. And we'll have to deal with the fact that a lot of people don't like this at all, because they know exactly what they stole and when.
The communist movement in this country, particularly its pro-Russian wing, can expect to be increasingly targeted by the “left” wing of the state’s proxy forces. Because these forces, with their fake “anti-fascism,” are able to be sold to the public as supposedly righteous.
