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”?
At this point maybe the Hexbear front page should just have a portrait of Stalin displayed. Maybe right above our clock that shows Moscow time, to lampshade everyone who calls us Soviet bots. (Which is funny. The Cold War is over, dude! Move on already!)
