Leon Trotsky on his deathbed is interesting. The rest are just damn depressing.

It's history, which interests me. The remote outposts and buildings interest me.

The motivation behind them is depressing, however.

History

Hitler is often touted as the worst, but IMO was a piker compared to Koba.

Have you read

Stalin by Edvard Radzinsky

Stalin and his Hangmen by Donald Rayfield

Intense, informative and depressing.

How Stalin played the West, not only the intellectuals, but industry also, as he proceeded to industrialise and bought equipment in spades from US and Euro sources.

I agree with you. Stalin does not get much attention from scholars in comparison to what Hitler gets even though Stalin was 2x more evil to his own people as well as to other nation's peoples. Stalin was a demon. Hitler killed 6 million Jews in 6 years whereas Stalin killed 8 million Ukrainians in 1 year. Silence from the West to this day.

He also decimated his own Russian peasants, millions and millions of them for what he perceived correctly would be their opposition to collectivisation.

The irony of a dictatorship of the urban proletariat taking their unwashed country cousins into the literal pits.

And how easy it was for Koba, the urbanized intellectual communists, along with the workers and soldiers were only too happy to kill peasants and serfs all over Russia.
