It is the birthday of comrades Zhou Enlai and Rosa Luxembourg, and the death anniversary of comrades Hugo Chavez and Joseph Stalin.

I am celebrating their lives and accomplishments today! And a hearty Rest in Power to all of them! ¡Viva el comunismo! And may we carry on their revolutionary character today!

    Isn’t it all but confirmed that Stalin was poisoned?

        Unclear. I have read some plausible versions of how Khrushchev and his revisionist faction may have been involved. If not outright poisoning at least making sure that the medical response would come too late. I can understand why people are suspicious. But at the moment this falls for me under the conspiracy theory category. We may never know for sure, and in either case i don’t think it matters. We all know that Khrushchev was a snake regardless.

          We will probably never know, but i think it would be better to disavow this theory, it change nothing but promote the picture of USSR as some feudal byzantine court which is playing straight into liberal propaganda.

            Factionalism, plotting and “court intrigue” happens in every organization that involves humans, it happens in corporate offices, it happens in unions, it happens in liberal bourgeois governments, it happens in academic institutions, and it happens in socialist governments.

            However i agree with you, it is unwise for us to dwell too much on this particular conspiracy theory.

            Multiple of Stalin’s bodyguards testified to this.

          I can respect that, but even multiple of Stalin’s bodyguards testified to it.
