I believe Putin is trying to do whats best for russia, but I cannot and will not accept stalin as a patriot of any sort.
Why do you consider him as such?
Stalin took over the agrarian Russia that was devastated by the civil war, war with Japan, famine and filled with uneducated people. In 10 years he managed to build thousands of factories to outproduce the entire Europe that fought against the USSR in WWII. During the war the GDP of the USSR was 14%. By the time Stalin died, the USSR had the most educated population on the planet. They built the first nuclear power plant, were getting ready to launch Sputnik, and the stores were full of goods.
Stalin said that Communists developed the science of a revolution but failed to come up with a plan to run the country. Stalin ended the Worldwide Communism project of the Neoliberals, closed the USSR’s central bank in New York, and removed the Communist Party from power. For that last step the Neoliberals killed him, falsified history and eventually destroyed the USSR.
This is why over 75% of Russians view Stalin as positive figure. Stalin stands above all others. Putin is only trying to be like Stalin. This is why Ivan, Stalin and Putin are evil.
Actually this makes a lot of sense in context to some other pieces I've read. Stalin basically seized control instead of handing over power to the likes of trotsky like he was supposed to. Explains the 'collapse' of sovietism too.
Trotsky was a British agent. After he was expelled from the country, he was going to become the head of a government in exile while they started the Finnish War - a civil war between a former part of Russia against the USSR. This is why Stalin killed Trotsky, because otherwise this gambit was placing the USSR in jeopardy.
Note that before Stalin, the USSR under Lenin was a "great social experiment". As soon as Stalin closed the central bank in New York, he became evil.
