“” “” Whatever it is, the vast majority of comments from the public are pro-Stalin. And vulgarly expressed.”” “”

None of that you have translated and posted much less at original source.

First thing you need to learn when dealing with East Europeans is to sense irony.

Also Russian attitude towards Stalin and Soviets is more like Southerners towards Dixie and Confederate figures.

All of the above doesn’t mean Southerners are craving to slavery or Russians to Stalinism.

You’re trying to “whatabout” the situation, in true Soviet fashion. The real comparison of Stalin’s Russia is not to US Confederacy, but Hitler’s Germany.

In Germany today, Hitler’s legacy is not “up for debate.” The Holocaust can’t be denied.

In Russia, Stalin’s legacy is up for debate and its considered normal and acceptable to question his atrocities.
