Lol, you say that but... Guess you started the gulag system? You guessed it, Lenin! Who brought it to it's apex? Staline! Does it continue to this day? Yes!

Here's another great example of Stalins legacy:

The Road of Bones

"The Dalstroy construction directorate built the Kolyma Highway during the Soviet Union's Stalinist era. Inmates of the Sevvostlag labour camp started the first stretch in 1932, and construction continued with the use of gulag labour until 1953."

"The road is treated as a memorial by some, as the bones of the estimated 250,000–1,000,000 imprisoned laborers[3] who died while constructing it were allegedly laid beneath or around the road, although documented sources have yet to confirm this through further evidence"

This article has pictures:

"Prisoners spent 20 years building the road, from 1932 to 1952, and after that the camp was closed. According to official data, there were roughly 700 thousand prisoners working in this Gulag branch during these years, peaking in 1940, when 190 thousand men worked there in mining and construction works. It’s estimated that more than 125 thousand people perished during the camp’s existence."

We can appreciate the achievements of the USSR and still accept its failures

You're almost there buddy.
