    Why don’t you take all this misplaced energy attacking past socialist projects and instead so something good like organizing or reading theory

      You can organize and read theory without supporting Stalinism et al. A boot by any other name still tastes like leather

        It’s a good thing for the working classes to use the boot against capitalists, landlords, and fascists, actually, and this is precisely what the Zapatistas have done with their state, something they have in common with the USSR. “Stalinism” isn’t a thing beyond specific policies of Stalin, the ideology of the USSR is Marxism-Leninism, which was a key inflence guiding Zapatismo.
