stalin did a lot of bad shit, and made many, many, mistakes.
i won't get banned for this because hexbear isn't the evil shithole that everyone over on lemmy.world makes it out to be. we can just recognize the successes and failures of past historical leaders.
Nukes are scary and at that point the soviets had been fighting since 1918 (at the earliest, before that they were imperial citizens in a war and before that they were doing civil war stuff I'm sure)
This is why it's every comrade's civic duty that, in the event that you are presented with a functioning time machine, you go back and let Stalin know that the US only had materials to build two nukes, and they'd just used both of them.
i'll step up to the plate, i guess.

Probably also give him some schematics for ICBMs and other stuff. Give him modern potatos, I'm sure they yield more. Also a refutal of Lysenkos bs
At that rate, probably throw in some bell hooks and Feinberg texts while we're at it
Maybe give him a book of the biggest sports victories so he can win big in capitalist casinos while we're at it
