look I certainly think he could've been the maniac stalin was...but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt considering stalin had quite the bodycount...

also, I don't view lenin as any kind of intellectual (as he fancied himself) Really I see no difference between he and stalin in terms of moral and ethical fiber

I'm waiting for toddy to chime in with Ludwig II of Bavaria


There were probably a few who were more authentically gay than der Märchenkönig (no proof he acted out, right). Also, I don't think his powers approached that of an autocrat. Bavaria was punked by Prussia for siding with the Austrians in the Austro-Prussian war a few years after he succeeded to the throne, and was absorbed into the German Empire some years later (as a de facto client state of Prussia at the time).

it's not just that he had the gay...Ludwig was batshit crazy, incompetent and stuck in perpetual adolescence

correct, it's like saying we needed clinton/algore to have the internet, we didn't, and they were the beneficiary of the success it created, not the other way around.
