Nice little British hit-piece on a historical statue, including "Russian Nationalists" who say the dissolution of the USSR was illegal and one very likable liberal who says that Stalin was bad. Reporter is conservative, and comments are even worse, comparing Stalin to Hitler, etc.

Stalin was one of the most important leaders Russia ever had, he saw them through the fascist onslaught and saw his people achieve victory over it. Why are statues of Churchill allowed but not Stalin?

Wholesome epic big chungus Churchill would never be complicit in starving people.

Ebil Stalin starved billions all on his own.

Or something like that. I forget what Bonita Applebums book says.

Same people who would defend keeping up the statues of slave masters and murderers
