In a previous post, I argued that Putin resembled Hitler more than Stalin. That statement would undoubtedly have enraged Vlad the Impaler, who openly admires Stalin and calls his Ukrainian adversaries “Nazis.” But how do Putin and Stalin stack up? Consider the following:
Putin vs. Stalin
Ideology: Fascist / Communist
Killed: Thousands / Millions
Unlikely Ally: Xi / Hitler
Lenin Tie: Grandfather was chef / Successor in terror
Invaded Neighbor: Ukraine / Finland
And the winner is . . . Stalin. How’s that Russian Empire reunion effort working for you, Impaler breath?
