      You are correct. In all of my time being Communist I’ve only come across one circle of Comrades that praised Stalin. They went on to become Red Guards Austin. Listen to what someone says and believe them is what I learned. We can let the past be its honest self and move forward all the same. Otherwise, if we make excuses and attempt to clean peoples images we’re doomed to repeat the same mistakes. It’s also not about serving leaders, it’s about serving people.
