simply_surprise, 9 months ago to memes in Jesus and Capitalists Figure out a way to implement communism without creating a Stalin According to the accounts you describe, did the people beg him to stay or something? What prevented his resignation? Is there a reason that you’re confident in your knowledge of Stalin, yet unaware of the facts? What is your confidence based on? Also, you didn’t answer the question. Is it because you don’t actually know anything about Stalin?
