Which historical Communist would be the best roommate?
(thelemmy.club)
I'm thinking Engels. Responsible, reliable, motivated, has money, knows how to manage it and is incredibly generous (he died with more than he gained from the factory sale despite supporting the whole German/communist underground in London).
Also who'd be worst? Would Marx ever catch up with his chores? Would Che disappear suddenly for months at a time?
(Not a very serious question obviously)
Marx definitely seems like the worst unless one of them was somehow an even bigger gremlin and I've never heard about it.
Lenin seems like a good choice, like as far as I can tell he seemed like a normal functional dude who wouldn't make my life worse for having been around him. That's all I really need in a roommate.
I don't know if he counts but Beria (head of the nkvd from 1938 to 1945) was a notoriously unhygenic individual, a pedophile, and a serial killer. Although I guess that makes him less of a gremlin and more of an actual disgusting monster. Not a great guy folks
Nobody's perfect
Not only did he abduct teenage girls and strangle prisoners to death with his bare hands, I hear he had bad breath
The one thing I can't forgive.
God forbid a guy has a hobby
