Counter-cointer point, Stalin was a murderous peice of shit who should be condemned to eternity for his atrocities against humanity. Anyone that thinks otherwise for some inconceivable reason needs to step outside and snort some fuckin grass for being such a self-centered dumbass. Some of yall need to visit an active war zone or two, actually see with your own fucking eyes the violent destruction, visceral death, and utter despair that evil fucks like Stalin create.
counterpoint: everyone should read writings from every historical world leader, you will be in for a surprise. You'll find out that mainstream respected world leaders churchill and Teddy R almost echo hitler on their writings.
I'm not saying that those people are great, don't pretend Stalin, the man that destroyed any hope of a effective socialist democracy, as a good person.
