Lenin already corrupted Marx's ideals. Stalin just deepened Leninism.
That's why I feel weird when people start almost deifying Stalin or Lenin, it's just not true to the vision of Marxism.
The entire Bolshevik project was fucked.
That said, Russia hasn't exactly gotten better now that they're not the USSR anymore.
Well, the USSR were basically just Russians, since they carried out Russification programs just like before when the Tsar was still around.
Though that was mostly under Stalin, but it was still felt in the later periods.
