A trait the western bourgeoisie has never exhibited.

^^^^ CB: And actually, Leninist Nikita Khrushchev , General Secretary ( top leader) of the CPSU, did criticize Stalin for murderous repression. This was frank and open self-criticism. The Western bourgeois leaders have never made any comparable admission and self-criticism of the genocidal usurpation of the Western Hemisphere, the African slave trade, worldwide colonialism, WWI, WWII etc.
