dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Stalinism is objectively the moderate wing of social democracy

Many left deviationists unironically believe that.

What is their argument? I find other leftists to at least have arguments for their positions even if I disagree with them.

Something about the USSR not having abolished the law of value. I'm pretty sure Bordiga talks about it in Dialogue with Stalin, but lasagna man's writing style wears down my patience before I can get too far in.

But yeah, I've seen the r/ultraleft types refer to Stalin (and MLs more broadly) as red succdems or even red liberals.
