Stalin said this in 1920.
In 1927 the Hujum campaign began with Stalin’s support, and it involved de-veiling of women, veil-burnings, and education of women in direct opposition to religious authorities.
Then later in 1929 local sharia courts in central asia were banned.
Dude even the anti-Stalin-biased Wikipedia article on that admits in the second paragraph that veil-burnings were voluntary, which I am not against. (It also said they hired gangs to rip the veils off of women, but that sounds like the most obvious propaganda I’ve ever heard)
Anyway, thank you for informing me, I did not know that. I guess I disagree with 1929 Stalin then, but I still agree with 1920 Stalin.

I am fine with that actually, just like Stalin was.

But don’t let facts stop you or anything

The hujum was a campaign for the cause of liberation explicitly confronting religion. I am not condemning the hujum.
If Stalin disagreeing with you doesnt change your tune, then the original invocation of Stalin was meaningless.
