    Genocidal slavers like Jefferson are, indeed, bad.
    Not sure why a person took part in massively improving the rights and living conditions of the working class and fighting against the original nazis should be considered bad in comparison with enthusiastic slavers.

    Just admit it - you only said that because you have been bombarded your whole life with propaganda about how the most vile polity in the world is somehow good, while Stalin is somehow bad for some reason.

      Two things can both be bad. This is what you mls never seem to grasp.

      And It’s not for some reason. He killed so many people. No one can take you seriously when you praise a monster like Stalin.

        They can, but they aren’t in this case.

        And It’s not for some reason. He killed so many people.

        Killing nazis is not a bad thing, actually. Nor were they ‘his own people’.

        No one can take you seriously when you praise a monster like Stalin.

        You are yet to actually explain why he is supposedly such a ‘monster’. Just admit that your sole source of information on Stalin has been memes from the same people that sold you on Iraq’s WMDs.
        And no, again, killing nazis is not a bad thing.
