[lbo-talk] Dolan on Stalin

[Jim Devine]

>God knows certainly all Stalin's Bolshie
entourage went along with [him] with nary [a] second
thought.<

of course, there were consequence if they didn't go along. Further,
Deutscher presents evidence that a lot of Mensheviks joined the
government and the Party in the 1920s, so presumably a lot of the
entourage were Menshies... of course toadies come from all walks of
life.

BTW, who carried the boom-box in Stalin's entourage?
