Redstar is also alone on the Stalinist corner of the ET political compass.

guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper

Re: Oh yes (none / 0)

The political compass is a bit like a referee in a world cup game siding Italy. A lot of unfair judgments, and no replays. I wish I could join redstar in the Stalinist corner ...

Did you see you are now in the authoritarian conservative quadrant?

Re: Oh yes (none / 0)

Let's be fair, eh? This compass thing is a relative compass, if I show up as Stalin on the social scale it might just mean most folks taking that test are dissolute libertines, no?

I'd like to think of my space as the Gramschi space. I'd guess Stalin's probably way higher than me up the y-axe, maybe higher than everyone.

This being said, he probably had the right idea about nuclear power too.
