1) Lemmygrad 2) For years I was an uneducated liberal who’d never read theory, but my eyes were opened upon discovering the r/genzedong subreddit. With doubts building in my head about capitalism, I began to read political theory, and I would consider myself a Marxist-Leninist. 3) I agree with the listed core tenets and will strive to meet the listed goals. 4) I believe China in the 21st century is the shining star of the socialist world. Material conditions must always be taken into account, and in the case of China these conditions required some market reform. Unlike in capitalist states, in China businesses are tools of the state and the people, not the rulers like in the west. 5) I agree with largely all of the actions of Joseph Stalin. I do not believe he was a dictatorial man with centralised power like is believed, and that he governed the USSR along with the people and the communist party. Without their leadership, the nazi horde would not have been stopped. 6) I do not study the topic as much as I should, but I believe that Marxists should support the LGBT community, and fight oppression against them.
