The Cult of Personality

I believe Stalin did a lot of bad things/bad actions however he did improve Russia/the USSR in positive ways, for example the life expectancy rate of the Russian people became a lot higher once Russia became Communist. And, it put an end to the feudal Tsarism which was possibly even worse than Communism because Tsarism used religion to convey the message, and as Karl Marx said "Religion is the opiate of the people", however in modern context, and once communism came about that is not so much.

yea they wheeled people out of the hospital right before they died. that helps numbers a lot.

He was an ordinary murderer. Simply nobody.

there is no one special, his ambition made his one of the greatest figure of the 20 century. an ordinary man, but with a great vision, a great man

Comrade Stalin!!! you should have used cult of personality by living colour, it even mentions stalin

fuck him! He Was Dirty Devil

Here's the thing:

Stalin kept everything domestically within the Union itself (other than the WWII, which Germany provoked.) The United States has killed millions innocent of Iraqis and Afghans, rooted their governments, imperialized the countries, and for what? Oil. Stalin might've killed people, but he interpreted them as "treason to the Union" (not that I'm saying that's right), but he developed a depleted Russian Empire to a great Union, 2nd in World Power. No wonder US went in-they feared.

totally agree with u
very good post

The most repulsive person that ever lived!

Well stalin badly needed to dominate the media more than other dictators and facist governments; everyone knew he hated ordinary russians and christianity (the foci of the people), and it took alot to delude them to the contrary.
