I love the history of the communist movement all around Europe, but Stalin is just a fucking HUGE mistake.
Most communism was a huge mistake.

Take Stalin: Gulags and Ukraine.
Take Mao: Famine to pay for nuclear weapons.
Pol Pot: Year zero, completely fucking insane attempt to rewrite history.
Kim Jong Il: See the current press.

Even dictators in Romania and other European countries were tyrants.

However the main point to remember is that none of these so called "communist" states were actually communist at all. Dictatorships and oligarchies but not communist.

Where was the worker owned means of production? There wasn't any because these were state capitalist countries.
