So do you have a source on that Stalin quote or are you just uncomfortable with the affection for the USSR?
Asked and answered: I cited the specific book that referenced it, among others.
For the record, I am more than capable of recognizing the positive aspects of the USSR - I just don't like the simple-minded good vs bad binary thinking that often plagues these discussions.
You just waved a few titles around without actually citing evidence.
Evidence is when you type out directly the material you're talking about, followed by the source you got it from, the page(s) and paragraph(s).
You want an example of what actual quality citations look like please take a brief moment to read through some of the citations in this post
Edit: user I was replying to says they cited multiple sources. Just wanted to say they only cited one author - who's more a story-teller than a historian - while handwaving about "many authors saying it's true" without listing anyone. They completely rely on hearsay and vibes for evidence and not concrete source material for their worldview.
Like what? You're only saying negatives. Let's get your positives.
That's fair.
As for the pluses, I'd list:
Add in these next time.
That's usually listed under Stalin's crimes by western historians.
