    Your assumption that the person you are talking to isn’t familiar with it gives away that you are full of bullshit. Pick up a bunch of history books irl and read them from start to finish. Stop learning from memes and reddit posts.

      The person I’m talking to links Wikipedia articles and tells me to read ‘history books’ lmao. Of course I’m not taking it seriously.

        And who do you take seriously? People telling you exactly what you want to hear?

        You seem familiar with Marx so cross check yourself the data with Wikipedia

          Ah yes, cuz Wikipedia is the holy grail of information. No, don’t read stuff by yourself, don’t pick up a book, just use wikipedia.


          fucking liberals

          Damn, you’re proving why we have this emoji

      Ok. I mean, I’m not going to do it IRL, since I have them on my tablet, but I’ll go read Blackshirts and Reds, Triumph of Evil, the Book of the Hopi, The Cold War and Its Origins, The Hidden History of the Korean War. I’ll also recommend you read them.

      Edit: How could I forget Killing Hope?!

        Read them all and draw your own conclusions on whether Stalin was a brutal dictator or someone to worship. I suggest you to read on paper or eink display to not strain your eyes.

            WAIT wait wait wait wait, hold on, okay…so…uhhhh…okay, so, when you say

            Stalin was neither a brutal dictator nor someone to worship.

            what you’re REALLY saying is

            Stalin was a brutal dictator and someone to worship.

            is this right??? pls tell me
