His writing is clearer than almost any other Marxist, which imo is another factor
Hot take: I think Stalin is an incredibly mid writer, and Mao is far more clear and easy to understand.
I always thought Mao didn't translate well tbh. He relies a lot on Chinese metaphors but sometimes they just don't work and you're left going "Jesse wtf is this."
Stalin is a bit dry but he the information per page is probably the best of the Marxist writers.
Communism in China is such a failure they even need to hold up the sky from falling. Smh
