On the Plundering of the Soviet Legacy
At present, two main tactics are being employed by the bourgeois classes in the territories of the former Soviet Union against the communist movement:
According to an administrative order issued by Berlin police, the restrictions will apply from 8 to 9 May around the Soviet memorials in Treptow, Mitte and Pankow.
On 5 March 1946, less than a year after the defeat of Nazi Germany, Winston Churchill stood before an audience at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, and delivered the speech that would soon be known as the “Iron Curtain” speech.
In Western political mythology, the address is often portrayed as a prophetic warning about Soviet expansion. In reality, it was something quite different: a calculated ideological declaration of hostility toward the socialist world and one of the founding political acts of the Cold War.
For decades, Noam Chomsky has occupied a peculiar and paradoxical position within global political discourse. He is celebrated as a fearless critic of U.S. imperialism, a dissident voice against war, propaganda, and corporate power. Generations of students encountered radical politics for the first time through his lectures and books.
Yet at the very heart of his political worldview lies a contradiction so profound that it cannot be explained away as error, nuance, or misunderstanding. It is a contradiction that reveals the real limits of his politics: a systematic, principled hostility to Marxism-Leninism, to socialist state power, and to every historical attempt by the working class to actually seize and hold power.
Seventy years after the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (14-25 February 1956), the time for euphemisms has long passed. What occurred in February 1956 was not a minor rectification within the socialist project, nor a supposedly neutral “de-Stalinization” necessary for renewal. It was a decisive political reorientation that reshaped the trajectory of the international communist movement and altered the balance within the socialist camp. The Congress did not overthrow socialism, but it changed the theoretical and strategic line of the Soviet state in ways that strengthened revisionism, legitimized opportunism, and weakened the dictatorship of the proletariat from within.
On 26 December 1991, when the red flag was lowered from the Kremlin for the last time, the world did not merely witness the dissolution of a state. It witnessed the victory of counterrevolution—the temporary triumph of capitalism over the most advanced historical attempt to abolish exploitation and class rule. The fall of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was not the end of an experiment that had “failed,” as bourgeois ideology insists. It was one of the greatest tragedies in human history precisely because it interrupted a process that had transformed the lives of hundreds of millions and reshaped the global balance of class forces.
No political figure of the twentieth century has been attacked with such persistence, intensity, and ideological unanimity as Joseph Stalin. From conservative anticommunism to liberal moralism and large parts of the so-called “democratic” left and various anti-Stalinist currents (Trotskyists, Eurocommunists, and related tendencies), hostility to Stalin functions as a shared point of convergence. This is not the result of historical curiosity or ethical sensitivity. It is a political necessity.
Stalin is targeted not primarily for what he did, but for what he represents: the most advanced historical challenge ever posed to capitalism and imperialism.
Until the collapse of the Soviet Union, communists had always believed that the only way a socialist state could be destroyed was by hostile forces from the outside. Now we know that this was tragically wrong. The Soviet Union was destroyed by betrayal from within.
Recently, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of People's Republic of China's victory against Japan, the EU High Representative on Foreign Affairs, Kaja Kallas proceeded to a new provocative statement. During a speech, she said: “Russia turned to China and said: 'Russia and China fought in World War II, we won World War II, we defeated Nazism' and I thought: 'Okay, that's something new'. If you know history, it raises a lot of questions. Nowadays, people don't read much and don't remember history. It's clear that they buy these narratives”.
The Communist Party stresses out:

"In the sidelines of the Trump-Putin meeting, the sweatshirt worn by Russian Foreign Minister S. Lavrov with the initials of the USSR, namely CCCP (Союз Советских Социалистических Республик- Union of Soviet Socialist Republics), was commented on worldwide.
Khrushchev Lied, first published in 2011, is definitely the most emblematic work of Grover Furr, an American Professor of Medieval English Literature at Montclair State University who has devoted years of research on Stalin-era Soviet Union.
Before going to the book itself, it is significant to underline that Furr isn't an ordinary historian who relies on the dominant narratives and “sacred truths” of bourgeois historiography. On the contrary, he carefully challenges those narratives and “truths”, applying a dialectical approach on history and seeking for the actual facts one by one, usually using an enormous list of thoroughly-searched, primary and secondary, sources.
A new provocative attempt to equate communism with Nazism and take measures against communist symbols took place in the European Parliament, “Rizospastis” newspaper has reported. Five MEPs of the European People's Party (EPP) asked the Commission to ban the hammer and sickle - which they shamelessly equate with the Nazi swastika (!) - just a few days after the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the Anti-Fascist Victory of the Peoples, led by the Soviet Union and the Red Army.
Question: How do you appraise Mr. Churchill’s latest speech in the United States of America?
Answer: I appraise it as a dangerous act, calculated to sow the seeds of dissension among the Allied States and impede their collaboration.
"The Holocaust of the Jews is a timeless reminder of the true face of the rotten capitalist exploitative system and the criminal nature of Nazism - fascism that it engenders.
