    I wrote all that and just realized that I misread your initial post lol. Anyway I’m leaving the comment up in case people are interested.

    We do know that there are fabrications in Khrushchev’s denunciation of Stalin at the XX Congress, but to really tell apart truth from fiction would be very difficult given how many decades it had been and how much of the official documents had been “revised” or expelled to demonize Stalin.

    You may be interested in reading Losurdo’s Stalin biography (a new English translation has just been released and I believe it’s free) that might address some of your questions.

      Hahaha No worries at all. I appreciate you being honest about it and not doubling down, at least. Thank you for that!

      And, yeah, it makes sense it’s difficult to know at this point given everything. I’ll check out that biography. Thanks!
