    Especially thinking Stalin would be a democrat. The difference between him and Hitler was what they said the economic system was that they used to exploit.

      Right. If Hitler had known about the Holocaust he would have stopped it.

      /s

      I am not aware that Stalin had planned to extinguish entire races. Stalin did some genociding but no final genociding. There is no question which country I would choose as a minority.

        genociding but no final genociding

        wtf is that weird hairsplitting… so it is more okay to do a little massmurdering than “proper” massmurdering?

        a genocide is a genocide, and the soviet union under stalin enacted those as well (see for example the holodomor, treatment of polish and baltic people in the soviet union)
