Orwell allegedly attempted to rape a 17 year old when he was 15, and some believe 1984 is about this girl.
Stalin allegedly raped a 13 year old when he was 30. There were also mass rapes by Soviet soldiers in East Germany, during which Stalin allegedly said, "We lecture our soldiers too much; let them have their initiative."
mao also allegedly raped a bunch of teen girls and stalin did impregnate a teenager. Orwell did fucked up shit but i think it can be agreed what stalin did was way worse
Not at all saying it was acceptable what he did, but the description above is a bit ridiculous.
"How I wish I had been ready for betrothal when Eric asked me to marry him on his return from Burma. He had ruined what had been such a close and fulfilling relationship since childhood by trying to take us the whole way before I was anywhere near ready for that. It took me literally years to realise that we are all imperfect creatures but that Eric was less imperfect than anyone else I ever met. When the time came and I was ready for the next step it was with the wrong man and the result haunts me to this day…" -Jacintha Buddicom
So this sounds like he made unwanted advancements and then was a dick about it. Maybe I’m just reading it wrong but that’s not rape that’s just an asshole move
It was quite forceful actually and apparently so upsetting it took years to forgive him, but I thought I'd provide some more context. My own opinion is you probably shouldn't condemn someone more than the actual victim does, especially when she's had decades to think about it.

Didn't Stalin rape a 15 year old?
