H G Wells interview of Stalin

Stalin in 1934:

You, Mr Wells, evidently start out with the assumption that all men are good. I, however, do not forget that there are many wicked men. I do not believe in the goodness of the bourgeoisie. ​

Amazing interview/conversation. Tomorrow’s fake election in Venezuela is playing with my feelings, but I’d never heard Stalin’s voice in my head and glimpsed at his persona as clearly as in this article.
