Stalin is better than Goering?
Hell, yeah. Stalin is about a million times better than Goering. The only ones who can give him a run for his money are Hitler and the leaders of the Hutu people in Rwanda in 1993. FWIW, I'd give the Hutu the edge, because while their per-diem killing rates were comparable to Stalin and Hitler, they did it with machetes. That's impressive. Stalin and Hitler required bullets, electricity, and cyanide. They probably deserve their own thread, though, and I don't want to stray too far afield here. But even though he wasn't a NAZI, Stalin was better at what he did than all the NAZIs except possibly Hitler.
Stalin also had that very chic porn-star mustache. Like Geraldo and Ron Jeremy. That alone would merit his inclusion in any list of totally cool people, even if he hadn't been personally responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people.
