    Who here was glorifying Queen Victoria? Not me.

    But a dozen of you are tripping over yourself to defend Stalin. For no reason. Seems you’re the misogynists here. You love Stalin despite him falling short of a woman’s (who you hate) accomplishments.

      Being born into royalty and, by pure happenstance, becoming empress of the largest empire in history at its zenith is no accomplishment.

        So you’re changing your own argument, now? It’s more impressive that Stalin worked his way up the ladder before killing all those people? That’s what you admire?

          You’re very bad at this, and you’re convincing no one. We know what Stalin actually did & didn’t do, because we’ve actually investigated. We grew up under exactly the same propaganda as you, but all you’ve got is that unexamined propaganda, which we’ve examined and found wanting.

            It’s very telling that _every single one of you _ have jumped in with a whataboutism as if that’s remotely a valid argument. It’s not even on topic. That’s the childish response. At no point had I mentioned communism at all, but that’s what your minds jump to. You can’t even admit that: tyrant bad. Being a tyrant communist doesn’t make the tyranny part not exist.
