I read something along the lines of “the civilian casualties of the Battle of Stalingrad is partially an example of the faults of Soviet centralized planning, as the state was not able to provide food, transport, housing, etc. in the time and numbers required.” I am wondering what the response to this claim would be?
I find it funny that an entire city under siege by a reaving genocidal army is somehow turned into a failure of communism.
Huh, I wonder what happened west of Moscow in the early 1940s that would make the state unable to provide for its people? I guess we’ll never know…
