Ive been reading Stalin a lot lately and his work fucking slams. Ive already prolly read more than him than almost any other theorist, and just in the past couple of weeks. The biggest reason is that hes so much easier to understand and get through than Marx (but even like Lenin, tbh), most likely because of his lower class background which is reflected in his infintely less masturbatory style of prose.

Also he is by far one of the bests at explaining the actual methods of constructing socialism and the economic laws that are applied to do so. Im reading "economic problems of Socialism in the USSR" right now and i would highly reccomend it to everyone (it will help kill leftcom brainworms), because it is one of the best analyses i have found of what the hell socialism actually is/how its different from Capitalism, how it works, and how to construct it.
