Stalin was… quite a character. I think Lenin’s brutality would be remembered clearer if it wasn’t for Stalin… but I also think Lenin wouldn’t have reached Stalin’s death toll.
Stalin was certainly two pints of crazy in a one pint glass. And he could drink his generals and high ranked ministers under the table. And did, every single night for decades, forcing them to attend, and get blackout drunk, or be suspected of plotting treason.
But Lenin, he was just getting started when he started stroking out.
Yes to the first two, I think no to the last one.
