Was Stalin an actual Communist? (lemmy.ca)

Did he actually believe in communism? Or did he just see an opportunity to be dictator and took it? There was plenty of industrialization that needed to happen prewar and plenty of rebuilding after the war, so it's actually hard for me to see his true ideology.

Did the Staten-Generaal supervise the Heeren XVII, was it the other way round, were they usually the same people, or did it not work like that?
