This is of course a dirty solzhenitsyn lie, get raped. Post-Soviet countries which are not Russia or Belarus say they hate Soviets because glowies have been openly at work there for half a century now. But Russia itself loves Stalin, who consistently wins popularity polls, and the economy and public morals (and industry, public health, quality of food, architecture) were doomed by 90s capitalism. Capitalism turned Moscow into one designated shitting city in under 5 years, and it took 20 years to partially clean it up.
