      What's up with MLMs addressing Gonzalo with his title while not doing the same with people like Lenin and Stalin? Lenin was a chairman too, but when's the last time you see them refer to Lenin as "Chairman Lenin?" The dude who led a failed revolution gets to be called "Chairman Gonzalo" while the dude who led the fight against fascists doesn't get to be called "General Secretary Stalin?"

      Thank you. I am not the worst figure in leftist discourse, but I am one of the most annoying and I worked hard to earn that distinction

        not the worst

        Unless you're counting Pol Pot... In which case we can have an annoying discussion on whether or not the Khmer Rouge was communist. So either still annoying, or the worst.
