Indeed, his associates say Mr. Singham has long admired Maoism, the Communist ideology that gave rise to modern China.

Replying with an article that refutes this claim is not on-topic?

There are several articles there. The first one is about Lebanon. Like I said, you might have to scroll to the one about China if the hash link isn't taking you there

He didn’t create it, he created the principles for it, expanding on Marx.

He did not add to Marx, he only applied Marx to the specific conditions of 20th century Russia. The challenge remains for you to show that Lenin updated Marx or believed that he was.

...This is necessary to pave the way for the solution of the economic problem, i. e., that of the economic transition to socialist principles

Do you understand the context of what you posted? Apparently not. He's alluding to the ongoing international struggles. He knows that socialism will be impossible in Russia without those victories.

Our backwardness has put us in the forefront, and we shall perish unless we are capable of holding out until we receive powerful support from workers who have risen in revolt in other countries."

"We are far from having completed even the transitional period from capitalism to socialism. We have never cherished the hope that we could finish it without the aid of the international proletariat. We never had any illusions on that score, and we know how difficult is the road that leads from capitalism to socialism."

"We always staked our play upon an international revolution and this was unconditionally right... We counted upon a revolution of the world proletariat and were of the opinion that Europe after the war would rise so rapidly that either the spark of our revolution would kindle it, or that it would kindle our damp squib."

These statements stand in stark contrast to the policy of "Socialism in one Country" of Marxism-Leninism. ML has nothing to do with Marx or Lenin.

It is an insult to the socialist system to say that an “opportunistic and traitorous” Stalin would be able to become a “dictator” within it.

Not even Lenin thought they had reached socialism yet. Even the quote you posted said as much, so I can only assume you can't read.

Actual communists tankies

Your questions betray a terrible confusion. There was never a DotP "established" by Marxism-Leninism. There was no such thing as "Marxism-Leninism" when the Bolsheviks siezed power from the provisional government in October. By the time "Marxism-Leninism" was created by Stalin, there was no longer a DotP in Russia as the world revolution had degenerated and capitulated to class collaborationist opportunism. "Marxism-Leninism" is the result of and the excuse for that opportunism and from its inception took the role of the ideology of the nationalist foreign policy of the capitalist Soviet State divorced from the historical communist programme.

Why do you think Stalin need to jail, kill, or exile all the old guard?

War with China- the same thing that will happen if Biden wins.

If an actual fascist dictatorship were a real threat the democratic party would be totally impotent against it.
