Redpill me on this guy, was he really as bad as his reputation or is there a Hitler-effect happening here? Many Russians from the soviet area approve of Stalin.

he was a man who knew how to get shit done people just didnt like the fact he was willing to lose his own people to get said shit done. great leader if you dont mind collateral damage in the name of progress

Terrible leader. WWII literally saved him. Destroyed his military leadership, fucked up farming and industry. Russians only think well of him now because he was the last time they really won anything tangible. He was a vicious dude though. Had an iron will.

Difficult to disagree/disapprove of a purging totalitarian

HE was a shit father, when he had the opportunity to save his son from the gulag...He didn't.

This. Again n again.

He was a totalitarian dictator. He saved his countrymen from serfdom by forcing them into collectivized farms on pain of death. Saved his people from a monarchy with a brutal paranoid government that purged potential rivals and simple peasants alike. Forbid farmers from continuing to grow crops they understood and lived off of.

Won the hearts of hipsters everywhere.

id have to say as like political leader I guess? b- military leader c- also diddn't hitler try and take the farms when he was like 2 days from taking mascow

He was given detailed plans of the Barbarossa invasion down to the exact time and date and completely ignored it. His continued fuckups propelled the Krauts all the way to Moscow before one of the coldest winters on record intervened.

Yeah, he killed the spy/ messanger because he thought he was lying about the Germans. He also hid in his room for the first two weeks of the war because he was so embarrassed.

...

He betrayed the revolution and was a terrible leader.

NO
loterally stalin dindu nuffin

>He suggested Joseph Stalin be removed from his position as General Secretary of the Russian Communist Party's Central Committee.
hmm how strange that Lenin died right after he wrote this

> He also hid in his room for the first two weeks of the war because he was so embarrassed.
That's bullshit.
The beginning of war is well documented.

He was the true evil. Yet you americans ally with him. Sad

based stalin
killing the kikes before it was mainstream
good bless his soul

Total coincidence.

...

If your talking about deaths under him, Worse then hitler by a mile. He was also Master of the Zerg rush . He relied on having 10x more pesants to throw into meat grinder then the Germans.
After throwing away nearly half a million soldiers to win at Stalingrad, the soviet army was ordered to literary run all the way to Berlin.
Gulags were worse then Nazi calis aswell.

Hey, don't blame us. Japs attacked us, what do you think the US is going to do?

He freed the USSR of the Bolshevik Jews. This is one reason why he gets trashed as much as he does. In terms of "being a monster" he wasn't much different from his WW2 contemporaries. Communism is still shit though.

>If your talking about deaths under him,
you confused him with Lenin and Trotsky, because these two started The Red Terror which resulted in genocide of the russian people and massive theft and looting

stalin killed 30 000 bolshevik commie kikes
lenin and trotsky killed 11 000 000 - 20 000 000 mostly russian peopple

...

Stalin committed many crimes but he saved the revolution. He wasn't a good human being but he was the right man for that time and place.

He out jewed the jews

I think the world today would be massively different if he didn't round up all the bolshevik kikes
