hello everyone - you may know me as @DylanMc6@hexbear.net. just recently, i got banned from hexbear for "history of repeating US state department talking points, anti-socialism and zionism", as well as possible "fedposting".

let me clarify that although i strongly support socialism and the ideas of liberating people from their corporate overlords, i am still learning about this. if anything that i've said on hexbear are considered "us state department talking points", as well as "antisocialism", "zionism" and even "fedposting" by the hexbear mods in any way, i sincerely apologize.

i personally disagree with stalinism, i mostly prefer the more libertarian forms of communism (like council communism, for example), but i'm open to hearing any and all perspectives from all parts of the socialist spectrum, whether it be marxism, leninism, stalinism/marxism-leninism, trotskyism, de leonism, social democracy, democratic socialism, georgism, libertarian socialism, market socialism, syndicalism, anarcho-communism, and even maoism and the likes.

i myself support a fusion of left-libertarianism, market socialism, georgism and de leonism. i'm also NOT a federal agent, i do NOT intend on entrapping people, and i oppose the actions of ice agents, as they are using force.

to any hexbear admin or mod, i apologize for any comment that i've made that can be seen as "repeating US state department talking points, antisocialism and zionism"

i really hope this clears that up.

Oh, gotcha. "Stalinism" is 99% of the time used as a pejorative for Marxism-Leninism, considering Stalin synthesized it. 1% of the time it refers to Stalin's specific policies, but that's not really common these days.

I refer to Stalin specific policies since I agree with Marxism Leninism.

Gotcha. Is that for Stalin generally, or specifics? MLs tend to believe him more good than bad, the CPC for example ranks him at 70/30 good/bad.

Yes he was indeed not bad as a leader
