      Stalins god son described him as alright, strict but fair. And Stalins great-grandson is based.

      Kim Il Sung also did a good job, Kim Jong Il was a good leader and marxist. Kim Jong Il also did a good job, because our boy Kim Jong Un came out great.

      From what I read, Che Guevara was an exception. One son even works in The Che Center, which preserves part of his father’s extraordinary legacy.

        You’re welcome to your own understanding of it, but he definitely abandoned his first daughter.

        He’s not the worst of them, though, since his kids mostly did support his work/communism.

  • You’re saying Christian Parenti? He’s progressive for the most part (especially his fight against climate change) but an odd well meaning liberal, while he is anti-imperialist, he supports Trump because of his embrace of Russia and rejection of NATO.

    I feel like he must’ve processed Michael’s ideas on imperialism but got his brain all scrambled up when he went to the London School of Economics (the flagship of liberalism) to get his PhD and rejected Marxism and believes that the evils in the world can be solved by the tired old line of liberalism.

    His idea that Trump might be better than Biden is probably true, at least in American foreign policy but he lacks the vision and solutions that his father has.

        I mean, my father is a hardline conservative that thinks Trump is the best president we’ve had.

        Yet I’m a communist. We don’t necessarily follow in our parent’s footsteps.

        Put someone through American society, and even with Parenti as your dad coming out as a soc-dem after the American stuctures have there way with you is still impressive honestly, mfe’ers get the most intense brainwashing imaginable.
