This would have been after '53, right? Like, Stalin wasn’t responsible for that shit (we have testimony he was against the conspiracy theory), but let’s not act like he thwarted it either.

People who talk about politics under Stalin really neglect how complicated it is and how, to assert something is true, that has implications for many other situations and motivations like a logic circuit changing values down the line.
