You can say that Stalin was bad, right?
What can I say, they aren’t a monolith.
But their hatred towards diversity and dissent is
Bad on what grounds? His Soviet project certainly didn’t last, I think that failure is bad. He had quite a few deaths under his leadership, that was pretty bad, too. But it’d be crazy to discuss Stalin’s failures without acknowledging the post war reality: a depleted and war-torn Russia, former allies (who just dropped two atomic bombs on Japan to make a point) immediately resuming hostilities and sanctions against his fledgling national project, and the isolation that comes with being that cold-war black sheep that nobody wants to play with. From that perspective it’s suddenly not surprising that his project failed, even if you think he committed huge atrocities on the way down.
If you disagree with Stalin, you’d better be quick to acknowledge the systemic conditions that contributed to his failure before you get to blaming him for the holomodor lmao. Fair game if you think his leadership decisions were huge mistakes or weren’t justified, though they’ll probably disagree.
damn that didn’t take long at all, what is it with you guys and your inability to disavow stalin’s atrocities? poor, poor Stalin’s USSR was forced to do genocide, they had to kill all those people :(
Lenin is screaming at you
