Again, this is the retarded shit about Stalin that actually gets spouted that is the complete opposite of the truth.
Stalin 100% expected a Nazi invasion, Stalin spent the entire 1930s trying to assfuck Hitler and the Nazis while the British and French appeased Germany in every regard.
What the Soviets didn't have was the correct information on Barbarossa because the British kept spamming Soviet intel with fake information.

Support for Israel was a mistake by Stalin. if any Zionist project was allowed, it should have been the Lithuanians or Germans who paid the price of having to give up land. Lithuanians literally killed 40% of their own countries population in the Holocaust.

Yeah, Russians and Marxists are the only ones who actually can look at the Soviet Union in a balanced fashion, unlike turbo Conservative rightoids, butthurt paperclipped Balt and Ukrainian nazis and Russiophobic Jews still seething at the pogroms like Applebaum and Nuland that make up all of Western Soviet pop history.

He was a massive westaboo who was secretly working with MI6 and feeding the Brits information on the USSR. His plans of power pretty much was restore the USSR to Capitalism under him, while being supported by the UK. He planned on doing this by giving up lots of USSR territory and capitulating a lot to British demands.

Khrushchev is hardly better, dude literally started the restoration of liberalism in the USSR and while slandering the shit out of Stalin and the Bolsheviks with nonsense that is still repeated as fact to this day, despite the Soviet archives completely debunk it.

>He had a meltdown and became a shut in for weeks after Hitler invaded.
Lie by Khruschev, debunked by the archives.
