The Finnish Bolshevik

Was the USSR Perfect? (Analyzing errors)

Lenin, kittens, and Stalin, no less.

The most important thing to remember is that analysis of any society or leader with no (or inadequate) context is bound to yield highly distorted or erroneous results. Learning about and imagining the actual circumstances in which leaders and societies made the decisions they did is essential to a fair understanding of their actions. What's more, it's not accidental that the elimination of historical context is the favorite tool of propagandists. Almost all of anti-communist propaganda in the West—which continues unabated to this day— is grounded in ahistorical presentation of pseudo facts. But trying to understand facts without proper contextualization is simply an illusion. And an exercise in political dishonesty.
