Marxism-Leninism was synthesized by Stalin, but like the name suggests, is over 90% Marx and Lenin. Stalinism is typically used coherently to describe the policies of the Stalin-Era of the USSR. Those calling Marxism-Leninism "Stalinism" typically are trying to use Stalin's name as a way to bash Marx and Lenin's theories and practice.

Clairvoyancy is just one of my many skills. Another prediction: this chain won't stop until I stop it because you want to have the last word. It sounds crazy but just wait and see
