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?!

Grover Furr, Khrushchev Lied and Dominico Losurdo's book on Stalin are also quite good.

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.

https://dessalines.github.io/essays/socialism_faq.html#did-the-soviet-union-repress-and-kill-millions-of-people Again, why don't you address nothing that's been presented here, if you are so sure on your points, you can certainly present a competent argument about why those sources are not to be believed or why the other sources are better, let's debate history, sources, methodology instead of just calling people dictators and posting wikipedia links, again make an argument for the sources that constitute the wikipedia articles you are mentioning, let's move the discussion forward, I'm not against the debate, but let's have one, you are asking everyone to read stuff, but what about you read some of our stuff as well, and let's have a civil discussion about stuff.

Stalin was neither a brutal dictator nor someone to worship.
