an essential part of the history and ideology of the Soviet Union is that the partisan dictatorship tasked itself with acting in order to bring about Communism
Like, it's not that Stalin was viewed by anyone as a good guy revolutionary, it's that the negative outcomes were viewed as the byproduct of technical-political solutions intended to eventually create Communism
So when you point to that stuff like "Communism is bad" what you're really observing is "they never had it"
