Being considerate of other people is Stalinism, is that what you're saying?

That's what Stalin said.

But since parent was being sarcastic, yes, Stalinism is about being considerate.

The peasants were actually, legitimately being oppressed. Someone rose up to fight a good fight and ended up saying (as a well known someone in these circles frequently says) the non oppressed group should be killed. Yep: it's pretty Stalinist.
