My dad called me one last week. I told him I’m not even a communist, just a moderate social democrat who likes Soviet symbols for the shock value. (Not true, I’m a Marxist-Leninist, but gotta keep the peace with family, IYKYK.) But now I’m wondering, is “Stalinism” even a thing? Are any of you bears “Stalinists”?
you forgot to include the trot calling the sucdem a series of archaic insults in words and sentences that’re both dated to silent generation lingo and all the wordy shit they’ve read from the collective trot library right to their face while pushing them to buy their paper.
also the trot’s either fucking ancient or freshly graduated from highschool
“You people are the reason the left has no unity.” - Guy my dad’s dad’s age. Not a minute later… “Can we interest you in a newspaper?” - Guy who looks 14 and can’t be a day over 19, with a voice squeakier than my kid brother’s. Wearing the same party symbol as the guy who insulted me. “This is why I don’t go to left unity shit anymore. Come on, buddy. Let’s go home and read some theory, you’ll learn more doing that than hanging around here.” - Me, beyond frustrated at this complete waste of my time, to the guy I dragged there.
Fuckin’ Trots. The jokes write themselves. (It is rather funny that the only Trots older than like 20 are old enough to be the younger ones’ grandparents.)
