Have you ever read any of Conquest's poetry, OP?
Into one’s ninetieth year.
Memory? Yes, but the sheer
Seethe as the half-woken brain’s
Great gray search-engine gains
Traction on all one’s dreamt, seen, felt, read,
Loathed, loved…
. . And on one’s dead.
-Which makes one’s World, one’s Age, appear
Faint wrinkles on the biosphere
Itself the merest speck in some
Corner of the continuum.

Wow that's garbage
What's wrong with Conquest?
>>1687622
Communists seem to hate him for some reason. Here's some Australian Maoist fag excited at his death. Be warned: The comment section if extra cancerous.

IIRC he got revealed as a propagandist working with for the British, and he is also where the "eleventy gorrilian russians" thing comes from.

who the fuck is this guy?

Among leftists, he's a living meme. His very existence is a bad joke, and people only watch him to laugh at him.

He's some Canadian neckbeard who says he's an adherent of Maoism and constantly tries to revise history. Imagine Varg Vikernes but communist and a 100 times more cringe worthy.

Basically Cold War propaganda. Little less biased than Furr, but fabricated gulag death counts in the upper millions based on literally no evidence.
The Black Book of Communism was based on his now-disproven bodycount.

Haha not even Maoists take JU seriously

Mark my words - they'll be vindicated when the Soviets open up the double secret archives.
