Reminded of Stalin and the chicken

Saw the post on twitter I completely forgot about the story. It goes Stalin tore feathers off a live chicken tossed it on the floor bleeding. And then started feeding the chicken and it clung to him and followed him in pain as he fed it. His point you can abuse people and if you give them a little they will follow you. Why because their stupid today we have the trump base and gop as the chickens.

In the 80’s we got regan cheese in 08 we got screwed. Now we get $ 1200 and still getting fucked. Because of incompetence evil and the gop disregard for human life.

He was a ruthless idiot and his end fate was mild compared to what he deserved; this post about him will forever be ingrained.

Who knows how many of them are accurate, but if it made Stalin's enemies fear him all the more, I'm sure he did nothing to discourage them.
