Wasn't a good portion of Stalin's poo poo incompetence at various levels, too? IIRC he had one of the heads of the purges purged because "woah dude, you're taking this whole purging thing too far"

hitler actually killed more people according to timothy snyder, who is a pretty hardcore anti-communist and anti-stalinist.

modern stalin/ussr fans in russia are a pretty strange lot, as they are generally nationalists but still idolize how strong the USSR was

there's a free game called "stalin's dilemma" where you simulate the five-year plans. it's just a spreadsheet with a bunch of population, economic, industrial, military-industrial and agricultural numbers you fiddle with before hitting the "GO" button. after i did some tweaking i hit "GO" and got a pop-up that said "3 million people have starved to death." then you make your next move.

the story of yezhov is hosed up because he was appointed as head of the secret police and was super loyal to stalin and did all these killings and stuff and then when the purges became too unpopular he just gets taken into the same dungeon he's killed so many in and is tortured and shot himself, with stalin's name on his lips as his dying words, then he gets airbrushed out of photos. that's your grand reward for loyalty to stalin

Stalin was a beta who repeatedly tried to kill Trotsky out of jealousy. Seriously, Trotsky was happy living in his compound in Mexico City, writing books, loving Frida Khalo, and drinking mescal. Leon was living it up until he finally got ice picked.

stalin killed most of the surviving bolshevik revolutionaries so they wouldn't be a threat to his power more just desserts. reminds me of robespierre and danton

Omi-Polari posted:stalin was the lesser of two evils. i think the logic is that while stalin was just another fuhrer, the soviet union at least had the potential to improve, which it did after uncle joe hit the bucket. but nazism wasn't ever gonna do that. from to improvement?

The only thing that could have made Stalin more dapper is some of Hitler's Hugo Boss.
