Unfortunately, there is often a great difference between Marxism and Marxism-Leninism (aka: Stalinism).
- dragonwriter 8y agoLeninism and Stalinism aren't the same, though Leninism-Stalinism would be a better name for the latter than Marxism-Leninism is for the former.
- eli_gottlieb 8y agoStalinism's typical name for itself is Marxism-Leninism, though. I don't think the etymologies make any sense, but when someone calls themselves a Marxist-Leninist, that is what they mean.
