Comment on YSK that Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, scientists, government officials. Everyone was terrified.

I would argue Maximilien Robespierre did it before him
I can’t believe Trotsky convinced Robespierre to do the Reign of Terror
I never mentionned Trotsky
OP incorrectly said Trotsky influenced Stalin’s authoritarianism, so I was making a joke about that.
