It's pretty standard to not like people who executed dissidents, even if those dissidents were enemies of socialism. Tbh convincing someone Stalin was good is pointless; convincing someone the US was the constant aggressor during the Cold War and the USSR (or Communist nations in general) almost always acted out of self defense, sometimes in repressive ways, is more effective
Oh yeah, I didn’t necessarily mean convincing her to like them, moreso as an example of her being anti-tankie like lol. She’s American too so she’s heard probably so much about all those figures too so I get why and all that. Thanks for the idea at the end!!
