It's called the great patriotic war. Over 27 million people were murdered. In the war to save the motherland, nobody was made an exception to not take to the battlefield, not even the Communist party.
Not even mentioning people can at different points of their life be positive figures for socialism and at other points detractors to socialism. We can point to W.E.B Du Bois whom spent the majority of his life as a FDR-esque progressive and imperialism appreciator waited until he was moments from his death bed for his material conditions to lead him into understanding Marxism-Leninism was the correct ideological path. The inverse of being a positive actor for socialism then the conditions that a person finds themselves in can change them into a bad actor, detractor, or worse against socialism.
khruschev used the purge to get into his position, exactly the problem with a mass hysteria not tempered with procedural obstacles. talented opportunists have a field day.
The more I learn about khrushchev the more I wonder about the competency of stalin for not purging the doofus.
More and more people are saying this.
Khrushchev: "What do you think was Stalin's biggest failure?"
Hoxha(?): "Not getting rid of you!"
Kruschev sucked ass.
He was literally the best communist leader of his era.

Yes, but have you considered "corn man bad"?
🌽🤔
He did good with Cuba and some other international stuff but otherwise he should've been corncobbed
He was literally the only socialist leader keeping Communism international, and he gets no fucking credit for that.
