Stalin.
Communism was supposed to be an experiment in civilization a bit like how America was an experiment when they declared Independence from England. It was hijacked by a ruthless dictator with no regard to human life or human suffering. "One death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic." Is one of his sayings. When you think of all the suffering he has caused, it is realy sobering and unnerving. Besides the 20.000.000 he had executed there were the millions he send to the gulagh's and the millions who died of starvation.
It is hard to think of all the sorrow this paranoid evil bastard let loose on an illiterate peasant as well as the intellectual population. His methodes of fear, terror and murder are still being used but now by the Putin regime. He is proving to be a real Rasputin in the modern- day Russian and World- politics.
