    Um… How exactly is the execution of “thousands” of Nazis and monarchists and forcing them to shovel snow something bad that only “brainwashed” people would defend? I think you are confused here

      Oh yeah all 2-3 million people involved in Dekulakization were Nazis or monarchists.

      They weren’t. They were peasants and regular people like you and me.

      You’re delusional, and anyone here who thinks like you is also delusional. You believe that because the US has a capitalist dictator that the solution is a Communist dictator, but it’s not.

        Kulaks were a class of bourgeois farmers that employed slave-like labor. Dekulakization was the process of ending that slave-like mode of production. I don’t imagine you refer to the American Civil War as “Lincoln murdering millions of his own people,” do you? Stalin was elected, and did not have absolute power. The socialist system in the USSR required collective decision making, and could not have been run or dominated by a single person, no matter how influential said person may be.
