I don’t know if this is the community to ask this but i don’t know where to post otherwise. And sorry for my bad english

Ok so, i am new to communism/socialism and have been teaching myself what the principles of the ideology are. But i am really confused, and need help in learning the beliefs of communism/socialism.

For example: What side do you guys stand against the war in Ukraine? Are there any books or documentries that can help me understand communism a bit better? Is religion accepted in a communist nation? What is the AES? Etc.

Any information is usefull.
May God bless you and have a nice day…

Edit: Sorry, but after reading the reasons on why Russia is right in this conflict. I can’t agree with it, i’m sorry but war isn’t the way. And i do not support Ukraine for that matter, Ukraine is very corrupted and fascist. But gotta say, thank you for teaching me what i can do to learn communism a bit better, i am very gratefull…

    Religion is accepted, but not inside the State, the State has to be secular, only abiding to the socialist principles.

    Books? Read Marx, Lenin, Stalin and Mao. I hear Mao is the easiest to read, while Marx is the hardest. Lenin is a must. And Parenti, he is perhaps the easiest introduction read his Blackshirts and Reds and other works.

    Ukraine is a humanitarian catastrophy cooked up by the West. Mainly them being overconfident and overzealous, ignoring big power politics as if Russia were an irrelevant country such as Ghana. Ukraine ate all their Kool aid up and ended up fucked from both sides, invaded by Russia while having to pay for Western weapons.

    AES = Actually Existing Socialism. Actually here referring to the fact that they do abide rules of reality and don’t need to be picture-perfect from theory.
