  No. Communism has existed in the Americas and Australia for thousands of years. But the lemmy.ml mods won’t admit it. They think communism has never succeeded.

    Do they? I though they were ortodox Marxist and it’s one of the first thing Marx taught didn’t he?

      They claim to be orthodox Marxist, but they deny that and many other things Marx said. Like that the revolution must be worldwide. Stalin created the idea of “communism in one country” as part of his “Marxism-Leninism”, which doesn’t have much to do with Marx or Lenin. They get all their opinions on Marx and Lenin from Stalin, who was co-opting their images to promote himself while betraying their ideals.
