Remind me again, why would a MAGA claim that Putin admires and is mimicking Stalin?

Almost wish I had sat around for the end of that conversation.

1. As I understand it, Putin is a born and raised communist. Member of the KGB...

and was, according to some journalists, majorly pissed when the USSR fell. He was a true believer in the party.

3. He believed in what he sees as the strength of the Soviet Union

I don't think he cares about communism as an ideology.

6. You! Are correct, sir. Putin-Perfect-Patsy played perfectly too.

2. It's true

Putin admires Stalin. And a lot of Russians admire Stalin too, incredible as that sounds. They see him as strong, particularly compared to Yeltsin, so back in those days Stalin started to rise in popularity.

4. I think Putin is beginning to realize that Stalin was successful because he didn't

have to worry about social media.

8. Reinforced justification for Nationalism works that way.

5. MAGA is as stupid

as stupid can be.

7. Stalin killed lots of Ukrainians.
