The pitts of the Stalin regime held twice the percentage of incarcerated, multiple famines, no real elections, widespread war, etc. The USA isn’t there yet but it will be.
The number of people the USA currently has in prison far outpaces the height of the gulag system in absolute numbers and percentage of the population. If you want to talk about famines you can check out how the USA treated indigenous people. To be frank, Stalin was small time compared to the USA, whether you’re talking historically or currently.
His grandfather sounds based as fuck, I actually wonder how he turned out this way.
EDIT: Ya’ll Tankies downvoting? I’ll say it again. Fuck the USSR, they’re no different than what MAGA aspires to be.
He spied on the US and the USSR. He was not some principled ideology. His ideological and moral compass only pointed towards money and nothing else.
He was sent by the USSR, made deals with the FBI and CIA, moved his family to the states and was executed by the KGB for spying on the USSR.
Sounds like the ultimate redemption arc. We should all aspire to be so strong of will against tyranny.
Clearly he couldn’t pass off the tiniest bit of it to his son and grandson before he died, sadly.
MAGA…USSR…
Incompetent Party Oligarchs in palaces and bread/gas-lines for everyone else 🤝
Can hardly wait for the De-Trumpinization on the same level as De-Stalinization.
I’m doubtful after 2020, that it will happen.
Already are
Only a self-deluded accelerationist would think this is the bottom. It goes much lower than this.

And per capita it is half as much as the USSR, thanks for the rehash.
