Well, that opinion is rather widespread in Russia. You can make a perfectly
rational cost-benefit analysis and argue that Stalin was good for the
country (note that you cannot do so with Hitler). I don't agree with it, but
people who make the argument are hardly kooky and they do have a lot of good
points.
What is Mao's popularity in China? Does anybody know?
