Stalinism

Stalinism is a totalitarian, economically far-left ideology inhabiting the top left corner of the political compass. His cultural views are debatable, with some detractors accusing him of being culturally conservative and others accusing of being  progressive (Like ML, many modern day adherents are  socially progressive).

He believes in rapid Industrialization, socialist commodity production,  Socialism  in one country, a   Totalitarian state, collectivization of agriculture, cult of personality.

Doctrine
Economically speaking, Stalinism is far-left. Stalinism is culturally variable, some consider him culturally conservative and some culturally progressive. Stalinism is a development of Leninism, his main theoretical beliefs are Socialism in one country, Aggravation of the class struggle under Socialism, and Socialist commodity production. Although he does believe in the final goal of Communism (stateless, moneyless, classless, etc),he believes that a strong state is needed to progress to it. He believes industrialization is needed so that the Socialist state won't get crashed by foreign powers, and believes that the Kulaks are enemies of the Revolution, which is why Collectivization is needed, however he does believe that middle and small peasants are friends of the Revolution. He believes enemies of the people need to be purged so that Socialism can be preserved.

[[File:Neostalin.png]] Neo-Stalinism
Some scholars describe Leonid Brezhnev's rule as Neo-Stalinism since Stalin's methods of mass arrests, closed courts,etc were common under Brezhnev.

The term is also used to describe the system of the countries that in many ways resembled the political system of the USSR under Stalin, as an example, the regimes of Mao Zedong in  China,  Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il in  North Korea,  Hồ Chí Minh in Vietnam,  Enver Hoxha in  Albania and to political parties that idealize a similar political system.

Personality and Behavior
Acts like a stereotypical Soviet era politician often sending people to the gulag.

Stylistic Notes

 * Dark and misanthropic sense of humor.
 * Paranoid and quick to seek revenge.
 * Violently repressive.
 * Sometimes cooperates with [[File: Nazi.png]] National Socialism but only for the NAP and to get ahead of them economically, still denies it though.
 * Hates [[File: Tito.png]] Tito and [[File: Trot.png]] Trotsky for factionalism and revisionism.
 * Can either exist alongside [[File: ML.png]] Marxism–Leninism as a representation of the ideology as understood by Stalin or will not exist and be replaced ML entirely.

How to Draw
Stalin_flag.svg The symbol used for Stalinism in the polcompball is the symbol of the Worker's and Peasants' Red Army, more famously known as just The Red Army which was a military force led by Joseph Stalin through much of its existance.


 * 1) Draw a ball.
 * 2) Fill it with red (preferably CC0000).
 * 3) Draw golden hammer and sickle inside of a star (feel free to make red inside star darker, to mimic the USSR military badge).
 * 4) Draw Stalin's military cap
 * 5) Add eyes.

And you're done!
