Heros of the revolution!
Marx, a middle class drunken pedophile wife beater; Che Guevara, a doctor who stole his rich wife,s jewelry and ran off to Cuba and enjoyed shooting people; Stalin, a hyper paranoid who killed anyone who looked him the wrong way and used terror to cement his power (Did he actually die of a stroke as reported, or was he also a syphilitic?); Mao, an inept educator whose policies killed about 50 million chinese!
To be fair, Stalin merely took Lenin to his logical conclusion (and there’s also evidence that Lenin didn’t want Stalin to succeed him NOT because of any moral qualms for what he did, but because of Stalin’s class upbringing of all things. Lenin’s objection was that he was a Georgian Peasant and thus a lower class lout. He had no qualms with his committing bank robberies and various forms of murder, and if Molotov is to be believed, Lenin actually was more severe in life than Stalin ever was, not that Stalin was ever the slightest bit merciful mind you).
Looking at Stalin the wrong way? Lenin will have you killed just for saying something even the slightest bit grammatically different from him. And Lenin was arguably even MORE reliant on terror, period, to the extent that he actually killed people for restraining mobs under any means (something that’s even implied by his p.s of “find tougher people” during his infamous 1918 hanging orders).
