Of course, Stalin, Lenin, Fidel Castro and almost all dictators and bad guys in our history were been genius. You might labelled them as bad and evil genius and separated them from other kind of outstanding persons who reached to success without mass murders and violence, but that was not change matter. They had created our history until the rest plying with dreams and fantasies.
About Stalin’s accuracy, diligence and great management skill witnessed many historical facts. I bring here one of them - how he instructed his assistance to keep order in his new library – to put 5 thousand various books in right place and order, dividing on science, fiction, non-fiction, historical and philosophical directories. And into the every directory he suggests own carefully orders, according with value and importance some or other books. So the books have placed in his library in perfect orders and he fast reached to the searching items, when he wanted to do that.
No wonder that comrade so sticking to the right system in his work and duties will able so quick transformed from democrat to the one of the cruelest dictators and man of action in history of Mankind.
It is notable, that such things happened in the great country, which long ago suffered from traditional negligence and sloth.
As far as our society and people have to be trapping and suffering from apathy, indifference, conformity and very little worried about self-protection and protect future against “the evil genius” in power, of course, such cruel experiences will be returned with the iron logic and fist of dictatorship repeatedly and diversified.
