    What is the metric you’re using to claim that trump is better than Stalin? If it’s “human suffering caused” as approximated by total excess deaths caused by the government’s policies during time in office, trump will probably be worse just on account of being the leader of a US empire enforcing worldwide capitalist extraction for 6 years now.

      You’re a fucking dumbass. Not only are downplaying and deliberately underestimating Stalin’s atrocities (700,000 “guilty criminals”) you’re blatantly lying about Trump’s effects, as terrible as he is, it is not even remotely close.

      Sheer fucking stupidity.
