Apologies for unnecessary sarcasm comrade

For a full rounded history about the Hungarian revolution I can recommend this book

The Truth About Hungary

My friend’s dad identified as a stalinist, he calls himself that. I guess I am just going off of my anecdotal perspective with that one.

Some Marxist-Leninists have become so sick of the Anti-Stalin crusade in the Left have taken to becoming obnoxious and call themselves "Stalinists" but in truth nothing exists. Stalin did not synthesize a new Marxism as Lenin did (to create Marxism-Leninism). Stalin, theoretically and ideologically, was a Marxist-Leninist

If you are interested in exactly what Kruschev did and the policies he changed I recommend these 2 books

Kruschev Lied goes through Kruschevs secret speech and proves he was a liar. It explains exactly how the revisionists sought to place all the blame for some of the murkier parts of Soviet history on Stalins shoulders...So they could then begin dismantling the Soviet Socialist system he built

This book goes through the exact policies they changed of the Soviet system as well as provides a good theoretical understanding of why the Soviet Union was socialist and exactly what policies were revised under Kruschev then the Kosygin reforms of 1965
