      I kinda have a soft spot for our corn lord but his biggest problem was that he was just a buffoon. He made important decisions rashly and was overly boisterous. That's how you got "brilliant schemes" like the Virgin Lands Program (literally because he visited Iowa and became obsessed with trying to grow corn in Siberia :corn-man-khrush:) and diplomatic embarrassments like the Cuban Missile Crisis. The secret speech is a perfect example of both, destalinization was something he rushed into for personal political gain without considering the long term ideological consequences.
