I don't think that's confirmed. The author who asserted that also wrote Stalin: The Court of the Red Tsar (Montefiore), and the genetic test match was reported from a fake newspaper (The Siberian Times).
Wouldn't say that's the only bad thing he did lmao
Speaking of lmao, we have a tonne of :mao-clap: emotes, and bloody hell there were some non-chill consequences of his policy and cult of personality during the cultural revolution.
What I mean is: If we get rid of Chomsky's emotes for associating with Epstein, should we not also get rid of Stalin's for provably having sex with an underage girl?
And to clarify: I'm against removing either. I think it would set a dumb and unnecessary precedent for "cancelling" emotes.
I mean if we're being real: We have far more emotes of Stalin and he confirmed knocked up an underage girl multiple times.
So where do we draw the line on this exactly?

I've seen it stated elsewhere in respectable sources, I buy it personally.
Fact is: There are at absolute minimum allegations that Stalin was a pedo.
Do you remember what those other sources were?
In some Russian biographies about him that I read in the past. Off the top of my head I don't have a specific title.
Opinion discarded right?
No, not at all; I'm genuinely on the fence. I just wanted to dig deeper.
:meow-hug:
I'm sorry, I misread the situation. I apologize for any hostility. :meow-hug:

My gut instinct says pedophilia.

i mean we still have The Guy Himself :epstein:
honestly my suggestion is still used :chomsky-yes-honey: but you have to spit on the ground when you do it
