Also, Stalin was a good man, and bellow is a Wikipedia article that prooves how much he cared about his people! What an exceptional human being! ;)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Purge Just stop associating Stalin with communism. Even though he called himself a communist, he actually wasn't. Look at this things:

Stalin was a despot and a stain on history, and many of his crimes were committed in a genuine pursuit of a “Communist utopia”.
 * Stalin was an aggressive nationalist and expansionist (his annexation of the Baltic countries, Eastern Poland, Carpathian Ruthenia, and Moldova is enough proof of his expansionism). Nationalism and Communism in theory are in constant conflict with each other. I say this because Communism puts emphasis on the workers of the world, while Nationalism focuses on a nation.
 * Stalin was against the Permanent Worker’s Revolution, as he actively suppressed Trotskyites. This is inherently anti-Communist because of the emphasis that Communism places on the workers of the world.

Despite this, he was not a Communist. His actions as premier had too much disagreements with the original Communism proposed by Marx.

Now we dealed with Stalin, let's move on. You said: 'Communism is the best ideology ever!!! I agree! :D'. I'll guess that was sarcastic. Well then, let's try looking at some alternatives to communism:

Capitalism

This is what capitalism leads to:  Fascism 
 * Typically leads to massive wealth (and thus, power) inequality
 * Workers may be exploited for the benefit of the wealthier capitalists
 * High levels of stress, desperation can encourage crime (a la strain theory)
 * Going along with wealth inequality, higher wages are frequently not correlated to greater production. Does the CEO really work a hundred times as hard as their average worker? Didn’t think so. Banks make fortunes by… having money to lend out. Power leads to more power, and this is the main flaw of capitalism. The more specialization of labor there is in an economy, the greater this problem may be.

Well, I think it's understandable why fascism is wrong.

Among all those ideologies, racism and discrimination is a common thing. Communism opposes racism, hate and discrimination. It also says that everyone should be equal. So yes, in some aspects it is the best ideology.
