Interesting piece here too, Alan:
Russian Communist lawmaker warns of ‘more orphans’ if Ukraine war continues
Of course, the CP leadership still about silencing any voices that dissent from “the party line.”
When such people are in power, of course, we see them imprisoning, killing and torturing dissenters, like any fascist (Red or White) clique. And forcing workers into killing one another.
And I also got Stalin’s books from Peking FLP:
On The Opposition
Marxism and Problems of Linguistics
and others, all very cheap.GOOD books were also very cheap from FLP Peking.
As a schoolboy I got China Pictorial, China Reconstructs and Peking Review. From Taipei I got the speeches of Chiang Kai-shek, in one of which he comes clean and says that Mao’s China never had anything to do with communism.
In fact, Bijou, Wilhelm Reich testifies to many links on this matter.
I also recall Captain Merrick from THE JEWEL IN THE CROWN and his sexual dilemmas.CHINA PICTORIAL had published in 1976 a photo which included Mao’s wife Chiang Ch’ing. Then there were one or two months without an edition. When the subscription recommenced, the same issue came out again, but with the out-of-favour wife replaced in the same photo by a vase of flowers on a coffee table.
Stalin had the same done to photos.

Quite a good likeness.
Anthony Trollope writes in Doctor Thorne that the more deprived the British poor are, the more they idolise their royalty.
