Was he a self-hating Georgian?
Khlevuik suggests Stalin did everything he could to immerse himself in Russian culture. In 1950, he actually stipulated that only an ethnic Russian would be allowed to succeed him.
What's the deal?

But he surrounded himself with and only truly trusted his fellow eternal Georgians.

Were Georgians genocided?
No?
Jordan Russell
Stalin didn't genocide anybody
James Watson
because the USSR excluded the phrase "on the basis of social class" from the definition of genocide in the U.N.
either way, a lot of people died
Grayson Powell
No. He was a Georgian Nationalist and surrounded himself with Georgians like Beria. He hated colonialism and imperialism but respected the night and force of the Russian empire.

*might
David Barnes
Nope. He was a Russophile but he still liked Georgia obviously.
More importantly, he was a communist.

Except the finns, the cossacks, the chechens, the tatars, the estonians, the lithuanians, the latvians...

Fighting rebels of a certain ethnicity != feminising that ethnicity
Colton Reyes
He probably didn't give a fuck about Georgians or Russians.

Soviets promoted minority languages as well as bilingual education
Most Central Asian peoples didn't even have a fucking alphabet until the Stalin period
Jackson Williams
They never had their languages suppressed
Justin Davis
The early USSR promoted the languages of national minorities, but Stalin threw that out the window.

Stalin was a bit more paranoid about some minorities like karelians that even speaking their own language usually got you sent to gulags. After ww2 they pretty much all got told to fuck off from their homes and they didnt even get to move back until after Stalin died.
Brayden Gutierrez
Genociding, not feminising. Autocorrect.
Jason Lopez
Fighting != grain confiscation during a famine caused by government incompetence
Thomas Roberts
and sho on, and sho on, sniff

Forced deportation of Chechens post war to a literal desert and massacres of civilian populace where 1/3 of the population is killed is not fighting rebels
