Among the rank and file and soviet citizens, the purges were actually pretty popular.
It of course wasn't nice to be on the receiving end, but if you and your mates didn't like a guy because he was the laziest labourer in the mine and grumbled too much about his party duties it was pretty easy to denounce him.

Napoleon and Hitler fell victim to Globalism where a bunch of other powers gang up on one guy to take them down, also stupidity, invading Russia.

Stalin only avoided this, because Europe was in no shape to try to take down Russia, and because once it theoretically could, Russia had Nukes.

For the soviet masses you had absolutely no choice in worshipping Stalin until he died considering you'd get shipped to a gulag otherwise, so I'm not sure how we can truly rate his domestic popularity. As for internationally the true depths of crazy shit Stalin was pulling didn't come out until Khrushchev's secret speech. Until then he was supported thanks to misguided tribalism for the only socialist state, Soviet control of the tankies of the international Communist parties, and the fact the USSR was part of the Allies during WW2.

Stalin is perhaps one of the worst historical figures to attempt to have a nuanced discussion about.

His rule is simply too politicized and anything outside the narrative of "evil genocidal maniac who stumbled into power and irrationally murdered everyone" is dismissed as being too sympathetic. Worse is the fact that anyone can make any baseless claim and people are completely inclined to believe provided it matches up with the "Hitler 2.0" narrative.

Speaking of which, in academic discussions, even Hitler is entitled to greater nuance.

>Muh Industrialization, muh backwards tsar

Literally bullshit. In fact, one of the drivers of German belligerence at the start of the first world war is that Russia was rapidly modernizing. The high command was estimating that 1914 was Germany's last chance to impose hegemony on Eastern and Central Europe. If they waited as long as 1918, Russia would have transitioned to a fully industrialized nation with a modern military; an existential threat to the encircled Germans

Not him but in academic studies of the Soviet Union there is a debate as to what happened in Ukraine can constitute "genocide".

In popular consciousness Holodmor is treated as an explici genocide i.e. in this narrative the soviets consciously worked to starve the Ukrainians.

In academic studies the idea that it was orchestrated is generally rejected and is instead seen as a product of natural famine and negligence/mismanagement by the Soviets. The debate is then as to how much of it was avoidable and whether this can constitute genocide.

Following the genocide train of logic then similar events such as the Irish potato famine and the 1940s famine in India could be seen as acts of genocide caused by the British. Truth be told "genocide" has become more of a political tool than an academic term.

I've read a lot of history books on Russia and had 3 college courses on it. All of which talked about the incident, none of which suggested that it was by any means intentional or a genocide. Which is not to say I havent read sources that support that it was. Its a debated subject, thats why it doesnt qualify.

>>2151154
Oh, well that wasn't me. I can't say I know the what the majority of Soviet historians say.

Like all memes it is founded in truth. Hitler's meddling caused catastrophe for the Wehrmacht on numerous occasions. Especially at Stalingrad where his stubborn insistance on the capture of the city led to the complete destruction of the 6th Army and the partial destruction of most supporting units.
And his fears of an Allied invasion through the Balkans both delayed Kursk and diverted numerous divisions and dozens of planes away from Sicily. His demand for his panzers to attack the Allies at Normandy well after they had achieved local superiority caused them to be surrounded and the entire army sent to France was routed with terrible losses and almost complete losses to equipment at the Falaise Pocket.
His "Fortress" order was either ignored or led to the encirclement and destruction of any unit that attempted to follow it.

Don't get me wrong, Germany was fucked with or without Hitler, but Hitler screwed the pooch on numerous occasions. Usually by ignoring his generals and listening to Goering instead, or even choking on some of Goebbels' propaganda.
Dude was a soldier, not a general.

Nothing he said was a meme, all of that happened, unlike >>2151299 which is a meme. Army Group Center drove south to engage and destroy a half million strong mechanized division that the Germans didn't know was still there.
That happened a lot, the Germans greatly underestimated the manpower both the Soviets had and could yet raise. Had they driven on to Moscow it likely would have ended up like Stalingrad did two years later. Shifting the army south was an example of Hitler listening to his generals who were telling him the army was a thread.
Stalingrad was him ignoring his generals. Twice over, actually. They just wanted to raid and destroy the city, then continue driving south and not even attempt to hold it. Hitler decided it should be captured. Then he insisted upon it when the Soviet counterattack bogged down the army and left them extremely vulnerable to encirclement, despite his generals largely begging for a full retreat, due in part to the disastrous supply situation.
Had it not been for Goering assuring Hitler the 6th Army could be supplied by air he likely still would have ordered the retreat, but Goering was all "Yeah man we can supply 100,000 tons of supplies daily with 50 tons of aircraft, trust me bro"

They could have participated in the war as partisans. They could have stayed in the army. They could get to work on some facility. Instead of that they either decided to support Hitler or support nobody. They're all guilty, since chechens recognise themselves not as a part of state, but as a part of their tribal-like community.

Also applies to the Communists. And Japan, and Argentina, and modern China, and every other economic "miracle" illiterate idiots like to point at to push an ideology

Russians cannot live their lives without an almighty father figure telling them exactly what to do. When IVAN THE TERRIBLE abandoned the throne and retired to a monastery the russians begged him to come back, he told them he would only do it if he was given complete and absolute power to do as he wished and they agreed.

I'm not from an english-speaking country, I don't know who tankies are.
And you clearly don't know how to deal with tribals placing their community over their status of citisens.
>>2151531
And you are just a faggot.

In Russia, we have a saying: "The more Russians you kill, the more they love you". This is why in Russia, Gorbachev is the most unpopular Soviet leader while Stalin is the most popular.

Tankies are people that justify atrocities carried out by communist regimes.

>>2151577
More like "In russian information space". Since this saying never goes out of the liberal resources.

>chechens recognise themselves not as a part of state, but as a part of their tribal-like community

You would be surprised, but not all members of a specific ethnic group share the same opinion. Also, genocide and collective punishment are wrong, who could have though?

People who supported USSR military intervention in Czechoslovakia in '68 are now exclusively english speaking. Just brilliant.

How much is Putin paying you to disregard your own history?

Then why didn't they stood against their own relatives, if they don't agree?

>I don't like someone's point of view

Is there any worth of keeping this conversation going?

If you didn't know, 40,000 Chechens fought in the Red Army

I'm talking about those who stayed in Chechnya. They could cooperate with NKVD, show where the nazi agents are hiding. Shouldn't this be a duty of every civilian during a military conflict?
I'm sure that if one american would found a group of suspicious people hiding at his neighbor's house, he would inform the police at once.

Yeah, he killed a bunch of Russians.

Idk if you know this but forced relocation and genocide are two different things

>>2148462
funny thing is, if they were lazy or annoying they basically were forced to do manual labor in depressing and lifespan shortening conditions, which is exactly what happened in america to the lowest class of factory workers.

>>2150897
thats what i mean. they chose to rule through fear even though alternatives existed. you can argue they needed an authoritarian regime to push an industrialization drive and ward off capitalist interference, but that just means they valued economic growth over a stable legal order.
