Stalin made the Union a super power, it only brings death and destruction to degenerates, it only collapsed after his death due to them softening up, also your missing the point i dont support Stalin for marxism i support him for being an authoritarian nationalist that killed degenerates and brought stability to his nation same for Pol Pot
Doesn't matter. He was just a psychopath.
Every Revolution eats its own child. History has already taught, that after every left-wing based Revolution, everything returns to status quo, sooner or late. The biggest victims of every Revolution are these who stood behind it. So, leftists Revolutionaries are none else than bunch of suicide. Let it be.
Most of Soviet criminal from political bureau were not even ethnic Russians, for example Berya was also a Georgian, like Stalin. It is very interesting, but Stalin himself wanted to become a...Georgian Orthodox priest, but he was thrown away from the seminary. Berya, after Stalin's death in 1953 wanted to democratize all occupied by Soviet Union, states in Eastern Europe and withdraw all Soviet Army from this region, he also wanted to democratize Soviet Union itself. That's why his secret plan and he did some actions to fulfill it.
Roosevelt from the very beginning had a plan to destroy European imperialism and he won, eventually. British Empire collapsed, after 1945, the same as French, Dutch one.
Roosevelt was very naive, though, because he considered Stalin as "normal", probably because most of people surrounding him, were Soviet spies.
Hitler was a criminal, but Stalin was a statesman. For people like me, Stalin was the by far the worst criminal of 20th century, Soviet Union was far worse than the Third Reich. And I say it as a Pole, because I know history, the facts, not the propaganda, spread by many. I don't believe in German propaganda saying that Hitler was a criminal, but Germans were his victims. On the contrary, Hitler was a product of Germany, Holocaust idea was created by 18th century Prussians, not by Nazis.
Ideology has nothing to do with this. I have the opposite opinion than most of mainstream – nazism was bad, but communism/Stalinism was much worse, Germans were the criminals, not only nazis. Nazis did positive things about which people should know, the same as communist. Of course both ideologies are criminal: nazism and communism (for many also fascism and socialism, not for me, though) but there is no white-black division.
Nazi "acts of kindness" were traditional model of family, but also campaigns against addictions, like cigarettes or alcohol.
The Russian people won the war in Europe. Stalin was the s. o.b. who demanded the utmost sacrifice, and, of course, became increasingly mad. At night he had his bed moved to various rooms, and, no doubt, had a food taster like the idiot on the other side of the Elbe.
Absolutely not. This is the biggest lie, spread in post-War Europe, in both, Eastern and Western Europe. Unfortunately also in America. Only because of US economic help, Soviets were able to defend themselves, since Germany/Axis were more powerful economically and they had better equipment.
PS.Hitler was supported by 93 % of Germans in 1938/1939, Stalin was supported by 117 % of Soviet people in 1947.
