Comrade Stalin, having become Secretary-General, has unlimited authority concentrated in his hands, and I am not sure whether he will always be capable of using that authority with sufficient caution.
I didn't say he ruined it, I said it was part of his agenda. He did begin the path of revisionism, though, beginning with his "Secret Speech", and then continuing with his "destalinization" (aka, reliberalizing [aka, aka, unsocializing]) of the economy
I'm very confused by this thread lol, but yeah, Stalin gets a bad rap. He was pretty shitty on a personal level, especially with the that instance of pedophilia...but he wasn't anywhere near as bad as the other world leaders at the time. Socialism in Russia was steadily progressing under his leadership.
The fact that Stalin is remembered is primarily because Kruschev's revisionism tried to pin everything on Stalin without acknowledging the fact that a huge amount of the progress made under him was through the mass of the party, not Stalin himself.

Famous Nazis.
Lmao, imagine listening to Kruschev,
You can mock him, but was he a nazi? Nah.
No, he was just a man with an agenda to ruin Stalin's image, and socialism in the USSR
How did he ruin Socialism?

Castro had some good analysis of the subject
He ushered in the first waves of market and reforms aside from deStalinization and anti revolutionary rhetoric.
