Is it simply over-correcting in response to western anti-communist propaganda? I’d like to think it’s simply memeing for memes sake, but it feels too genuine.

I think a lot of it is that there are clear, historical examples to point to where ML/MLM idiology has been implemented and tried, whereas anarchist idiology hasn’t really been implemented in any kind of large scale. Anarchy is also a tad loosly defined compared to something like Stalinism, where different anarchists will have different ideas as to what their ideal society would look like.
There is also a large amount of propaganda, both historical from countries like the USSR and modern from countries like China and North Korea that can and do influence opinions outside of their respective countries.
how would you define “stalinism”? I’m with comrade lady izdihar in that it seems to be only used for anticommunist discourse https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Bg0vJKjv7gQ
It was successfully implemented at a fairly large scale in Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War, and even implemented an effective bottom-up elected military.
That has basically nothing to do with Stalin?
