Well, Stalin was a motherless, criminal bastard
Lenin thought delinquents were victims of capitalism and, therefore, should be reeducated. Stalin used them for slave labor. Lenin tried to end the WW I without annexations and indemnifications. Stalin acquired both at the end of WW II
Primae Tenebrae says
Stalin pretty much killed any concept of real Marxist communism in Russia. He betrayed the revolution, he execute or exiled most of the true revolutionaries, and turned the country into a brutal authoritarian dictatorship comparable to Nazi Germany.
