#1 Stalin died in 1953. Doubt it will take quite 60 years for great monuments to Champ to begin to appear, but I'll surely be long gone by then anyway. An obvious upside.

#2 Provocative comment thread at link.

Autocracy is always appealing to those who cannot thrive by skill, smarts, and a work ethic.

Like Democrats.

The evil that is the left is like a tumor that can never be completely removed, due to the fallen nature of man.

All you can do is craft societies that keep it in remission.
