              lmao nice deflection, continued lack of substance. see 'origin of the great purges', another poster so graciously put up a link to. look up what albert einstein had to say about them even.

              but nah you'd rather trust the nazi-hiring capitalist west and the post-soviet oligarchs about the guy they all hated and constantly tried to undermine the government of.

              Capitalists subverting a communist state? sounds unrealistic must have been fucking paranoia lmfao

                  lmao because he presided over the defeat of the fucking nazis, created one of the greatest improvements in living standards ever to have been seen in europe, if not the world, and he makes shitlibs like you piss themselves in terror despite the decades of lies spread by america and their literal nazi propagandists. i bet you believe that the holodomor was a genocide. go ahead cite gulag archipelago next.

                      he's not a fucking saint or anything but by far better than any american president or european minister, and did it during the worst war the world has ever seen. i hope you end up in an 'authoritarian' state that provides you healthcare, housing, and education to undo the decades of american sponsored nazi propaganda.

                  why do you insist on defending stalin

                  Why do you insist on not budging on your childish view of recent history and giving the opposing side a fair shake? Like why is it so hard to entertain the idea that maybe you weren't given a full picture of Stalin when you (I would assume) admit you weren't given the full picture about socialism and communism in general? How are you so certain of your perception of Stalin when you have had (again, presumably) your perception of leftism drastically changed?

      This argument is not about whether or not the purges happened. That's not what anyone was disputing

              Not even dignifying that. You made specific claims, and when people challenged you on them you jumped back to more general claims you could defend more easily.

              This is super transparent, come on now.
