I am far from convinced that Stalin is “high-status”
Stalin is definitely high-status, at least in present-day Russia. He’s alarmingly popular among lower-class older people here—and perhaps among the net-savvy public too, as he is believed to be the actual winner of the state-sponsored contest “The Name of Russia”. If you ask me, that’s not surprising at all given the current situation in the country—it’s crawling with corruption.
