how can y'all listen to it without flying into a fit of rage? 5 min in and already we have a "totalitarian Stalinism" sighting. There is so much liberalism here.

    Mike is very good, love his podcasts. He's a radlib/socdem and doesn't pretend to be anything else. Frankly I think it's some of us here who paint him as a socialist or something when he isn't, and that sets expectations sky-high.

    I mean if you want to engage with Soviet history you're going to deal with people who aren't crazy about Stalin or the USSR in general, it doesn't bother me at least.
