        The fucking disrespect to a man who played by all the bullshit rules that liberals, leftcoms, anti-authoritarians, and every other opponent of progress espouse, massively improved the lives of the working class in his country, and died for his cause with a message of optimism to his people even in the most dark circumstances.
