Here’s an idea for a leftist fantasy novel I came up with: A prince/princess of some fairy tale style kingdom is sent abroad on a diplomatic mission, ends up having their propaganda bubble popped, learns about communism, and vows to enact worker rule once their parents die. Once they come into power, how might they set about this if they started from a feudal society, while making sure counter revolutionaries (in this case, like nobles, clergy, other members of the royal family, etc) don’t reverse what they’re doing?
Sounds great!
And keep in mind: Stalin said that it is was right to support certain feudal, monarchical, and bourgeois forces himself. But again: it’s only a story and I think that you shouldn’t take it too seriously. It’s obviously not going to be completely “realistic” and you could even put a disclaimer saying that it’s just you having fun and telling a story for others’ entertainment, among other things.
Huh, interesting. Can you elaborate on why this would be beneficial?
No, no, I mean support them against the most reactionary forces, including the United States and the Western forces.
Basically: “critical support.”
That makes sense. Thanks!
No problem, comrade!
