Ten theses of Marxist-Leninist theory

[jdhoch]

1. Communists distinguish themselves from other supporters of socialism in that their conceptions of the future social order and the path leading to it are based upon a theory of history,historical materialism, the essence of which was worked out by Marx, Engels, and Lenin. The theoretical content of Marxism-Leninism is determined and enriched by practical political experience. The theory still retains the experiences of the workers’ movement in the period of its formulation in the midnineteenth century. It reflects these struggles as they developed historically, including the controversies and contradictions. The truth content of the theory arises from the fact that consistent positions have been drawn from these struggles. Even wrong positions, later corrected, had not been adopted without reason; one must learn from them, just as one learns from all mistakes.

But what does this actually mean? Stagism? That is discredited. Stalinism is discredited. They turned historical materialism into something that would make Marx turn in his grave, Popular Frontism.

Here is a challenge for you Stalinists. Give us an example where Stalin or Stalinists got predictions right, based on historical materialism.

Shouldn't be too hard wrt Stalin, seeing as he kinda actually sat on the fence most of the time in what he wrote.
