debatable if it's slop or theory, but probably comrades will soon meet these arguments in the wild, and not that one has to abandon all theoretical considerations over geopolitical realism of the 20th century.

although it's all rather useless, treatlerism stays undefeated whether one thinks stalin was correct or not, got money from cia or not, decided to become culture critic or not

I meant more that support for anti-colonial struggles, including vietnam/cuba and pan-african/arabic movements, is more khruschev (period) lane, and what people typically praise ussr for. Whether it is contingent on party being there, at the right time, or whether it was more genuine sympathies/antipathies over korea handling, one cannot attribute same level of brazen anti-western policy to stalin.
