What I have learned here is that I'm having a discussion with an ignoramus who is a victim of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

You are amazingly good at describing yourself and yet are still so blind. It's quite fascinating actually, if I were a research psychologist, I'd be having a field day. Dunning-Kruger seems a fitting place to start, lol

Absolutely hilarious that you presume to tell somebody who actually grew up in USSR that they're delusional about USSR. You are an absolute and utter clown.

@yogthos @Sabre363 I've also grown up in the USSR but the image you posted is an absolute false equivalency. While it can be argued that the idea of a communist state is quite liberal, Stalin does not represent that idea. He was an autocratic tyrant and a murderer. To equate the US Liberal movement to Stalin is a grave disservice to the liberal cause.

The liberal cause? You mean the genocide of indigenous people and the enslavement of black people?

When you spew more right wing bullshit than the CIA

Even in Stalin's time there was collective leadership. The Western idea of a dictator within the Communist setup is exaggerated. Misunderstandings on that subject are caused by a lack of comprehension of the real nature and organization of the Communist's power structure.

CIA. (1953, declassified in 2008). Comments on the Change in Soviet Leadership
