      I’m going to be honest here I have seen less copious and comprehensive notes from Maoists, what a fucking saga.

      It’s a either a shame or a joy that despite being an online guy, I still have zero idea what a Hoxhaist is outside of bunker memes.

        The Wikipedia page provides a little info to clear things up. (I’d link to ProleWiki instead but Wikipedia has more info.)

        Part of the problem is that actual Hoxhaists prefer to call themselves Marxist-Leninist-Stalinists or something weird like that.

          Interesting. I have been doing a fair amount of Stalin reading recently, both about the man and by the man (though I find myself a mix of in favor, at odds and then sympathetic), so I might look into it abit further. That being said, I can’t imagine being a hardline Stalinist, so many of the policies that he championed in the Central Committee were policies of necessity, and then dealing with the aftermath of those policies of necessity (the consequences of which are often exaggerated, but still not great) that I don’t think a blanket support of him is necessarily a good thing (though laying the blame entirely at his feet is just as flawed, if not more so).

          Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
