A place to ask questions of Lemmygrad's best and brightest

I've seen the YouTube channel S4A posting audiobooks of Enver Hoxha lately and a lot of people here and on Reddit considered him a doctrinist or something. I'm asking what makes him so polarising in Marxist circles and what ideas he introduced for Marxism-Leninism.

Sorry if my question is a bit broad and such. I'm just starting to get annoyed.

Hoxha was pretty good at building socialism for his people, but he was unnecessarily weary and distrustful of Stalin, and Hoxha even had his government torture and murder confirmed and suspected Soviet advisors, for no reason.
