37.228.229.112: Removal of derogatory language

The '''Stalin-Lydia Affair''' was a historical controversy surrounding [[Joseph Stalin|Stalin's]] exile to Siberia between 1913-1917 in which bourgeois historians claim that Stalin impregnated 13-year-old Lydia Pereprygina.<ref name=":0">https://x.com/prax_ben/status/1801828255176987134</ref> Ironically, this myth was propagated by pseudo-historian Simon Sebag-Montefoire, an actual pedophile listed on Epstein's black book.<ref>https://www.standard.co.uk/hp/front/stalin-and-his-lover-aged-13-6581841.html</ref><ref>https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/1508273-jeffrey-epsteins-little-black-book-redacted</ref> Today, it is used by low-IQ anti-Communist midwits.

==Quick Debunking==
In February 1913, the Okhrana began to crack down on the Bolsheviks, arrested Stalin and sent him to exile as Turukhansk'. Worried about future escapes, he was sent to Kureika during Easter 1914<ref>https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=TGvUsBAxTUUC&oi=fnd&pg=PT5&dq=%22By+Easter+1914,+Stalin+had%22&ots=IOU8CTh4Iq&sig=gEvc1Z90KIxqXCzLmEyuaZZ9YTY#v=onepage&q=%22By%20Easter%201914%2C%20Stalin%20had%22&f=false</ref> to live with approximately 67 other villagers, and among them were a family of orphans - the Pereprygins. The youngest was Lydia, who was 13 years old at the time. Sometime in December 1914, Lydia gives birth to a child who dies shortly after. In 1917, she gives birth to another child - Alexander Davydov

The claim that is made is that Stalin fathered both children, but when looking at the evidence, that isn't realistically possible. Stalin arrived on April 20th 1914, and since Lydia had a child in December, that would mean she had a pregnancy of 7-8 months. Stalin left Kureika to Krasnoyarsk' in October 1916, but according to official Russian archives, Davydov was born in November 1917.<ref>https://pamyat-naroda.ru/heroes/person-hero122901790/</ref> This means that Lydia should have had the ''longest recorded pregnancy in history -'' at nearly '''400 days.''' Must be pretty convenient going from 7-8 month pregnancies to 13 month ones.

Most of these claims that Stalin had any intimacy with this child come from random tabloids/newspapers, and are not scholarly nor peer-reviewed whatsoever.<ref>https://lib.byu.edu/faq/244739/</ref> On the other hand, historian Ronald Suny of the University of Chicago states that any such claim that Stalin was the father of either child can't be confirmed at all.<ref>https://www.amazon.com/Stalin-Revolution-Ronald-Grigor-Suny/dp/0691182035</ref> These tabloids themselves admit that Lydia admitted to nothing explicit in her memoirs.<ref>https://www.standard.co.uk/hp/front/stalin-and-his-lover-aged-13-6581841.html</ref>

=== Is the 'DNA Test' accurate? ===
In 2016, son of Alexander Davydov - Yuri Davydov, in tandem with the BioPapa company, had a DNA test done that 'proved' with 99.98% certainty that Stalin was his grandfather.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20190430000116/https://scandaly.ru/2016/04/07/yuriy-davyidov-moy-ded-iosif-stalin/</ref> However, these tests were not carried out through court, so it isn't legally valid by BioPapa's admission<ref>https://old.asiaplustj.info/ru/news/tajikistan/laworder/20140211/klinika-biopapa-my-ne-stali-riskovat-svoim-avtoritetom</ref>. As such, it isn't a clear test according to any real standard whatsoever.

Biopapa has also been known to forge results.<ref>https://avesta.tj/2013/11/19/advokaty-obvinili-sledovatelej-vedushhih-delo-zajda-saidova-v-moshennichestve-dopolneno/</ref> The founder of the company himself admits they were offered 'heavy bribes' in order to falsify them.<ref>https://kontur.ru/articles/2594</ref> In 2013, a Tajik businessman by the name of Zayd Saidov was charged with rape and supposedly was a father to a child, and the court went through BioPapa to have DNA tests done. The prosecution requesting the results from BioPapa claimed the results weren't falsified, but then Saidov couldn't get any repeat results or confirmation. Safe to say that BioPapa isn't any legitimate source proving that Davydov was Stalin's son.
