Communism in prewar Europe was often explicitly Stalinist, such as the original "antifa": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifaschistische_Aktion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifaschistische_Aktion >Under the leadership of Ernst Thälmann, the KPD became a Stalinist party that was fiercely loyal to the Soviet government. Since 1928, the KPD was largely controlled and funded by the Soviet government through the Comintern. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Civil_War#Republicans_2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Civil_War#Republicans_... >It is important to note that there was infighting between the Republican factions, and that the Communists following Stalinism declared the POUM, the Workers' Party of Marxist Unification, (an anti-Stalinist communist party) to be an illegal organization, along with the Anarchists. The Stalinists betrayed and committed mass atrocities on the other Republican factions, such as torture and mass executions. George Orwell would record this in his Homage to Catalonia as well as write Nineteen Eighty-Four and Animal Farm to criticize Stalinism. None of this is relevant to FOSS. I'd rather leave politics out whenever possible. So long as Suckless isn't worse than what's been alleged, I'm OK letting them slide.
