@Radical_EgoCom It's the lies Stalin told to the working class that are the concern.
Just because Stalin and the bureaucracy were not trying to foment world socialist revolution doesn't exclude them from backing things that served their interests.
The greatest threat to the USSR was always Nazi Germany. Hitler had made their plans plain.
What did Stalin etc try to do in 1930-1933 to stop the Nazis?
Why did they say the KPD, which followed the Comintern line, had done everything right?
