Stalin's USSR was even worse than Hitler's Germany. As monstrous as the nazi ideology was with holocaust and other ethnic cleansing of Europe, it's no match for Stalin. In this thread, I'll list Stalin's often unspoken atrocities. 🧵

1. The Holodomor (1932–1933) Stalin’s forced collectivization of agriculture—seizing land and grain from peasants to fund industrialization. Estimates of Ukrainian deaths range from 3.5 to 7 million, with some regions losing a third of their population.

2. Forced Collectivization (1928–1940) Beyond Ukraine, collectivization wrecked rural life across the USSR. Peasants who resisted were executed, deported, or starved. Roughly 5–10 million died from famine, exile, or violence tied to this policy.

3. The Great Purge (1936–1938) On Stalins command, NKVD arrested millions of soviets on fabricated charges—disloyalty, sabotage, or just knowing the wrong person. Around 700,000 were executed, often after show trials or no trials at all. Millions more were sent to the Gulag.

4. The Gulag System Stalin's network of forced labor camps where "enemies of the state" were worked to death. At its peak, the Gulags held 2–3 million often innocent prisoners. Conditions were lethal: deaths are estimated at 1.5–2 million from the 1930s to 1950s.

5. Mass Deportations Stalin forcibly relocated entire ethnic groups like Crimean Tatars and Chechens especially during and after World War II. Up to 25–40% died en route or from exposure. The 1944 Chechen deportation, for instance, killed around 200,000 of 500,000 displaced.

6. Katyn Massacre (1940) Stalin ordered the execution of 22,000 Polish officers and intellectuals after the Soviet invasion of Poland, aiming to decapitate its leadership class. Victims were buried in mass graves, it was a calculated Soviet war crime.

7. Order No. 227 Order states: "panic-makers and cowards are to be liquidated on the spot." Human lives were used as fuel. Order was a symbol of Stalin's disregard for his own people, even in a "patriotic" war. 150,000–200,000 soldiers were killed by their own side.

8. Punishing soviet POW's "We have no prisoners of war, only traitors of the motherland!" Millions of Soviet prisoners of war were interrogated on their return, about half were sent to the GULAG and many thousands were shot or otherwise died at the hands of their countrymen.

9. "Scorched Earth" policy When Germany invaded USSR in 1941, Stalin revived a classic russian playbook: deny the enemy resources by destroying everything in their path. NKVD units executed thousands of Soviet citizens resisting this policy, millions starved.

10. Meat grinder tactics Red Army's human wave attacks, penal battalions and no retreat policy cost 10-14 million soldier's lives. Because of non existent strategies, millions were also captured as POW's. Post-war, the USSR hid the scale, glorifying "heroism" over waste.

11. Giving a Pass to War Crimes After hearing reports that Soviet soldiers raped hundreds of thousands of women in Germany and elsewhere, Stalin is reported to have said: "What is so awful in his having fun with a woman, after such horrors?" Couraging for more such actions.

Even compared to Hitler, Stalin was multiple times worse what comes to loss of human life. However, his cruelty was mainly directed against his own countrymen.

Vatniks can't deny these with facts so they just call me a nazi. It seems its forbidden to talk about Stalin's atrocities? Most of the world doesn't see Stalin and USSR/russia as a hero like you think.
