Stalin, You Conservative

News that I missed, courtesy of The Babylon Bee:

 

U.S.—Addressing a crowd earlier this week, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez declared that Joseph Stalin was actually a conservative or at least a center-right kind of guy.

“Nobody was actually on the left in Soviet Russia — Stalin was center or center-conservative,” she said. “Did Stalin have a Green New Deal? I don’t think so. And he referred to people with binary pronouns, not to mention the lack of drag queen story hours in the gulags.”

Ocasio-Cortez also criticized the Soviet Union’s lack of free broadband internet and Obamaphones, blaming the society’s deficiencies on Stalin “being such an ignorant, bigoted right-winger.” “All historians agree that the Soviets were held back from becoming a leftist utopia by Stalin’s conservative policies.”

One interviewer pointed out that Stalin was general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, but Ocasio-Cortez would not be mansplained to. “Stop catcalling me,” she said, snapping her fingers in a Z formation. “I am a brave, strong, woman of color, and any criticism of me is just because of white male fragility.” The interviewer was a black woman.

Go here to read the rest.  The world, alas, will never run short of ignorant fanatics like Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez.

Some people might agree with AOC that Stalin was right wing, except the tens of millions of people slaughtered by Stalin. The Gulag Archipelago stands as evidence against any claims by Stalin or AOC that Stalin loved his constituents and his countrymen.
