There's no need for reactionary propaganda here.

Ah, didn't realize this was lemmygrad 😅
Just out of curiosity though, which part of my comment do you consider to be propaganda?
Btw, by my understanding a "reactionary" is a person who seeks to restore an earlier political state of society. Wouldn't that make people who want to return to the "good old days" under Stalin the true reactionaries?
The last paragraph referencing the Holodomor, which is a hoax, and as is refuted in the breakdown I linked. I haven't looked into the various wage systems the Soviet Union experimented with so I can't speak to that.
To be a reactionary is to seek to conserve the current structures of power, ie. to defend capital, and in so doing to oppose revolutionary and even non-radical progressive liberal movements. It is not reactionary at all to look back on revolutionary movements in a positive light.
