Stalinist

Someone who upholds the USSR under Stalin's leadership as an appropriate and desirable model for society today. Those who believe in Stalin generally don't identify themselves as Stalinist, they instead call themselves Marxist-Leninist, but they believe Stalin accurately applied the teachings of Marx and Lenin. Modern Stalinist are recognized for their rejection of, what they label as, bourgeoise propaganda, against Stalin, and their constant conflict with other Stalinist over who is truly following his line.
