Can we share comics with the Dunk Tank? It's certainly worthy of it, doing that classic Liberal trope of glossing briefly over the things the Nazis were doing to quickly focus on the ebils of gommulism. I only briefly skimmed it, it was really wrong about a lot so I didn't bother reading more but the characterization of the Molotov-Ribbentop pact as Hitler and Stalin being a twee partnership only for Stalin to be suddenly shocked by Hitlers betrayal is awful.

Tried to find a pirate link to share but it's pretty new and graphic novels are kind of hard to find online

    A very small part, the whole of the USSR was responsible; especially due to the sacrifices and hard times the folks living there went through just to be the largest force in defeating european fascism. Every socialist who fought in Europe in Europe was responsibly for defeating fascism. In reality Stalin was not the sole person responsible for every decision and event in the USSR, he was only one representative part of a more cohesive whole, but reminding liberals that in their eyes if they childishly view Stalin as the sole person responsible for every decision in the Soviet Union during his tenure as General Secretary then he's also the man who had the guts to finally put the end to the holocaust and give Nazis the most impossible conflict. Socialists saved the world from German Fascism, but Stalin represents the most successful movement that was able to do so.
