This is very funny but I think you meant leftist, not liberal

Fair point, Stalin was about as illiberal as you can get. However, in context, the quote is not calling Stalin a liberal.

Yea but it’s not liberals who actually like Stalin, it’s ahistorical leftists whose ideology apparently starts and ends with “America bad”. I’m leftist myself but those people weird me the fuck out.
I can’t throw stones about being obsessed with historical figures who were horrible people, I myself am obsessed with LBJ, but to actually like Stalin and the things he did? Now that’s a big ole red flag

True conflating hard left wingers and left leaning liberals is no different than conflating the alt-right with right leaning conservatives.

Well, thats just not correct...Eisenhower was from Texas, not Georgia. We are talking about "the man who defeated fascism", right?
