"Everyones favorite person in history did something wrong" is such flattening apologetics. This is the same as double genocide theory. Its only use is to make Nazis look better and smear communists.
Its not that a figure like Stalin was perfect, but their is a difference between any critism of him and any US president, because he was involved in a socialist project (building up and safeguarding the USSR, and defeating fascism). US presidents "doing something wrong" are advancing the intetests of a white supremacist empire, or personal enrichment (like owning slaves).
"I want to remove our violent oppressors by any means necessary so we can be free and happy" - Bad violent leftist who ruins parties
"I knowingly sent material support for a genocide resulting in the deaths of 300,000+ people literally being gunned down in the street, oopsie doopsy everyone makes mistakes" - "Wholesome" "Nicest fucking dude"
