There is a difference between communist and Stalinist/Leninist though. Calling yourself a nationalist Vs a Nazi seems to warrant that distinction in most countries

> There is a difference between communist and Stalinist/Leninist though

only to communists, maybe. From where I stand, Leninism/Stalinism/Trotskism/other -ism are all extreme totalitarian ideologies

  • And would you accept the same grouping of capitalism, American libertarianism and fascism or would you prefer people actually pay attention to nuances?

    • since all real-world outcomes of communism have been consistently horrible, and since communists killed several of my ancestors - no, I am not going to look for nuances. If nazis should be punched, so should communists.

      Maybe if North Korea suddenly turns into actual paradise, I'll reconsider.
