From the cited source:

Stalin is an uncommon figure in modern economic history: a dictator with absolute power who also controlled one of the largest economies in the world. Since it is virtually impossible to separate Stalin's wealth from the wealth of the Soviet Union, this combination has led multiple economists to nominate him as one of the richest people of all time.

...

While that money didn't belong directly to Stalin, he had the ability to leverage blah blah blah peepee poopoo

Neolib ghouls are absolutely wild.

      I know, i just thought that since in the mind of liberals Putin and Stalin fit in the Slavic despot who control literally everything (but they are also puny and weak). People in their imaginations think that there's a continuation from tsarist Russia through the Soviet Union to Putin now so they keep coming up with theories on how Russians are predisposed to "authortarianism" because of geography or due to being the descendents of Mongolians or whatever.
