Liberals: “Stalin was a brutal dictator!”

And stalin sent his own son to the gulag.

Go back to .ml

Are posts like these just rage bait at this point? I mean, this has to be a troll... right?

Some of the people who hate Stalin the most are communists because of how he betrayed the revolution.

Just sayin'.

Stalin was a POS who brought authoritarianism and state capitalism instead of the social anarchy they were expecting. Fuck the Bolsheviks.

The EU is all we need. Fuck Russia

It ain't just liberals who say that.

This talking point is so popular, yet not a single tankie can be bothered to do a quick search to learn what CIA meant by "collective leadership". Spoiler: it doesn't mean worker democracy or anything similar. I had a link somewhere to a CIA document with the actual meaning - a "dictatorship by committee", a party oligarchy.
