They go on about him modernizing his country, yet he killed 20 million innocents, sent millions more to the gulag, let his own son die, drove his wife to commit suicide and didn't even attend her funeral, fucked Molotov's wife and sent her to Siberia, and even planned to genocide the Jews just days before his death.
Stalin once went to Dmitri Shostakovich's play Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk. He thought the music was too loud. He had the conductor along with all of Shostakovich's family and friends executed.
They fetishize power, and Stalin had absolute power within his country. What you have to understand is that very few leftists actually believe their own dogma. Whether they're aware of it or not, they just see it as a way to overthrow existing political systems and replace them with ones that they can control. It's the main idea behind (((Conflict Theory))): destroy everything, create a power vacuum, and manipulate the gullible masses to gain power. The ideology is just a tool, and end goal is power.
It's funny in a way- these people think that they will be reward with positions of party leadership or wealth in the event of a revolution, but Marxists have a long and colorful history of purging their own.

is right. Power. Slaying your enemies. Striking terror in people's hearts at the very mention of your name. These are things people respect, and for good reason. It's satisfying to see someone you consider to be on your side exercising that kind of power and getting that kind of respect. It also doesn't hurt that he led Russia to victory in the biggest and baddest war of all time.
Stalin dropped all the pretenses of communism and brutally repressed the people and murdered millions of them.

Commies were getting mad that Zig Forums has Hitler and they wanted to have someone edgy to make jokes about.
James Ortiz
That's why they like him. Plus he helped Amerikwa and Cuck Island destroy Europe in WW2.
Not really.

No, they don't like him,they like Trotsky. They don't care if Stalin was a monster, they hate Stalin because Trotsky & Jews like him wasn't at top of the food chain.

Pol Pot is where it’s really at
“ALL WE NEED TO BUILD OUR COUNTRY IS A MILLION GOOD REVOLUTIONARIES. NO MORE THAN THAT. AND WE WOULD RATHER KILL TEN FRIENDS THAN ALLOW ONE ENEMY TO LIVE”
