I just realised, I can't post anything on lemmy.ml

So, I checked https://lemmy.ml/modlog, there's a new moderator.

I don't really agree. Stalin's thoughts can be summed up in his synthesis of Marx and Lenin. There isn't a "Stalinism" separate from Marxism-leninism, but his contribution to MLism was vital.

I also don't really agree that Dengism is a thing. It's a convenient shorthand Maoists use to describe modern China, but I don't think Deng saw his contributions as separate from SWCC.

Also also, I don't think you can fairly characterize modern Maoism as Mao's interpretation of MLism.

All of these are very pedantic, so it's very much ok if we don't agree here! ๐Ÿ˜
