Hitler comparisons have ruined Stalin for so many people. If you read his actual words and Hitler's words there is no comparison. Even if you hate Stalin you must admit his writing is so much more articulate than Mein Kampf
It's generous that you think these people have read anything from Mein Kampf.
Yeh. Re-imagining Hitler as a dumb goon is definitely a western propaganda coup. Idk how much of the guy's writing is his own unedited thought and how much was created with editing and assistance from others, but Stalin is not the low brow gangster he's made out to be. Which, talk about your shifting rhetorical frameworks, somehow Stalin personally controlled the actions of every single person in the Soviet Union for thirty years but is also a semi-illiterate thug. Libs!
