Other quotes by Bruce Franklin.


“I used to think of Joseph Stalin as a tyrant and butcher who jailed and killed millions. . . . But, to about a billion people today, Stalin is the opposite of what we in the capitalist world have been programmed to believe. . . . From a Communist point of view, Stalin was certainly one of the greatest of revolutionary leaders. . . .”
