Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Yo this is the party of Lenin we’re talking about here. It’s also the most powerful communist party in today’s Europe, holding a double digit percentage of seats in the duma of Europe’s most populous country. I wish them well in the upcoming elections.
It's also the party of Khrushchev and Gorbachev, Zyuganov is not exactly Stalin.
I’ll take the party of Khrushchev over literally any social democratic or liberal party ever
If nothing else, Putin getting removed from power by a Communist, revisionist or otherwise, would be hella funny
West screaming "NOT LIKE THAT!"
Valid
the new KPRF has a very pro stalin outlook, but you are correct that they need to be more radical
That's my issue, as a party you can say you follow Stalin but if you're not backing it up that's a problem!
Hey, this is the dude who said the farm collectivizing was good and Russia should have more collectivized farms, isn't he? Stalin that does not make him, but it's more substantially socialist than just worshiping mighty mustache man without appreciating the socialist parts at all.
I agree, that's a good position to have
The rare Stalinist-MLM in the wild
we do exist
:sison:
Apparently they don't want them to win because they're a political dead end
Arguably, the "Party of Lenin" is the RCWP, since that's the remnants of the hardliners that tried the coup in 91. They're a bit ultra but surprisingly youthful and progressive for a Party that came out of defeated military hardliners. Nevertheless (extremely) critical support to the KPRF.
happy frosted bread day comrade!
