My brothers keeper, an OC/SI as the twin of Stalin

I don't think its worth to continue fighting. Imagine going to U.S living peaceful life with his family.
Its like watching a gambling addict keep saying "when i win, it will be worth it".

See the problem with that is that it would be boring as all hell to read. I want drama, I want violence, I want revolution comrade and I want it in abundance.
 
He is coping his wife death by inflicting more death. Poetic, sad. Future history class will love this guy for sure.

In his defense, that's what the OTL!Stalin did.

And based on snippets given by the OP? Future would remember him as the only sane (or capable) man among the sea of chaos.
 
MC seems to have very much drunk the warmonger koolaid
 
As the convoy rattled north, I leaned back against the cold steel and thought about how fragile it all was. An army built on plunder, a nation rebuilt at bayonet-point, peasants bought with land that had been stolen and stained. It would all crumble someday. But not today. Today, at least, the spear was still pointed forward.

Sooner or later the entire Soviet Union will be held together by awe and fear of Comrade Makarov as a Soviet Bonaparte.

Or perhaps a Nader Shah, Ivan the Terrible, Tamerlane, or Genghis Khan might be more appropriate given his leadership style.
 
Wasn't she Twenty earlier? Also, is it wrong I kinda hope she bites it? I liked Aleksandra better. Feels wrong for him to get another girl pregnant not even a year after his wife died. Hope she died before she can carry to term
Well, I think it would be a happier ending if she had her baby in hiding and the MC maybe went to visit sparingly. It is kinda bad to wish the death of a young woman after all.

I mean yeah, but I don't like her. Oh! making my prediction now, she looses it in a gas attack
 
though you can call me comrade Makarov. Yes, that Makarov. No, not the one with the psychotic monologues and evil plans—though I do appreciate the comparison.
I liked this man, before grief took him from us. Damn, I thought this story would have a happy ending, not that I dislike the realism, but damn.
Our rules were simple: no robbing, no raping, no killing. Break the rules, you get hung from a lamppost. Just like that.
You break the law in Soviet Russia, comrade, and the law breaks you! In the end, the only thing left of you will be a folded shirt given to your family so they have something left to bury.
Honestly, if this whole communism thing didn't work out, I could pivoted to military fashion design if I'm not shot.
As later demonstrated, either you're shot, or you lose a part of yourself.
As Frank Underwood once said in my previous life: Shake a man's hand with one hand, hold a rock in the other.
I love this reference, a fellow Underwood scholar, eh.
Then we create a commissariat—call it the Commissariat of Religious Affairs.
Very modern china-esque. From the looks of it, that's not the only idea our guy Makarov "borrowed". I'm curious if he'll leave plans for a Cyberspace Administration or equivalent so the USSR is prepared for the Information Era.
I am not here, not really. I am from the future. A place more advanced, slightly more civilized, slightly less violent. Only slightly. I am above you all.
Well, that arrogance got struck hard. Fuck.
I glanced over and caught sight of Joe—my brother Stalin—chatting with some of the Guards. I waved like a friendly idiot.
Where is my friendly idiot? I'd like to have him back, please. I hope after "the Purge" and after the power is consolidated, he can relax a bit with his family and plan for the future of the Union. Though I'm not sure how his family would view him basically taking another wife. That is also another opportunity for the Party to tighten the leash on him.

It truly is telling, how little foresight every other member of the Party has, that they instantly destroy the Triangle of Paranoia and oversight that kept the Revolution stable, and burned bridges with the man half responsible for that revolution for one act.

"Revolution Betrayed"? No. You betrayed it, along with every other member in that meeting whose humanity was weaker than even their will to live. The reprimand would have sufficed. There is an expectation of giving a chance for atonement. "A cornered animal will fight to the death." If for every single mistake a Party member made, they got the harshest punishment, there would be no one left in the Party.
truly Georgian women were superior, no wonder Joe was sad when Kato died, what zero Georgian pussy does to an mfer. I too would commit mass murder if I didn't have a cutie Georgian waifu.
What a prophecy. I wish he wrote that somewhere or did an interview later so someone gets to record those exact words, lmao.
History doesn't wait — and neither do I
That's his catchphrase. He's said it multiple times now.
Then I would kill them. I would erase them so thoroughly that even the archives would forget their existence. A lesson. A demonstration. A warning. Cross Mikheil Jugashvili and you invite annihilation.
Damnatio Memoriae. Can't wait. Honestly one of the best alternate history stories I've ever read.
 
I'd been the one courting Kato.

That's a contridiction with the main story in one of the early chapters MC stated that Stalin met her first
 
I think this is a reference but I didn't get it, what happened?
 
Knox shuddered slightly at the thought. If Murmansk too had been calculation — not madness — then perhaps this war had been lost before it had truly begun.

From this, a quote would be made, and the history would attribute to Jugashvili (even if our OC has never spoken it)
"Insanity is accepted in war, as long as it is calculated and methodological"
 
Comrades

The story is being re-written, I have done a lot of research on the civil war and dates during the february and october revolution and have realized there's too many inconsistencies, and too much plot armor. So Mika is getting nerfed, and getting more consistent. He will remain insane and Joker like however.

Here is the link:
if i may ask is his wife still getting offed/JFK'ed in this new timeline?

to tell the truth i think perhaps the story was diminished/lessened by losing that warm homelife to contrast all the coldhearted and bloody things that happen on the job.

if you still need something tragic in the family to destabilize things i feel a coma would work better because then you retain the ability to send him off the psychological cliff while still having a way to pull him back up by putting her back on the board, and along with her you get that contrast / emotional range back so the story can smoothly pivot when the current direction/situation starts to get stale.

i hope ive communicated my thoughts atleast half decently, as i was probably supposed to be sleeping as of 8 hours ago.

Comrade, the Party needs more men like you. We need more propaganda. :V

I hope the general story remains the same, I liked that Mika generally planned the outline of the whole Union.
