Who Was Stalin Responsible

138 Words1 Page

Soviet Union is in good hands now as Stalin takes power after his battle with the sly Leon Trotsky! That traitorous Trotsky who was the supporter of the Mensheviks before 1904 had finally backed down from the battlefield as he was banished from our country to Mexico. It was unfit for a person like Trotsky to rule over us if he is to be irresponsible. We should not forget that he did not come to our beloved Lenin’s funeral and rarely participated in any important political meetings such as Politburo meetings. Just think of the dreadful possibilities of the future if our country, if our prideful country, were to be led by the self-centered and arrogant bastard, Trotsky! Our merciful, powerful, and generous Stalin is truly the only one that is

Stalin, just like the Tsarist autocratic regime, was not committed to collectivism but preferred capitalism in his ruling of the Soviet Union.

    Introduction Joseph Stalin is perhaps one of the most important and discussed people in Russian history. He was arguably a feared tyrant cursed and despised by many. At the same time, one finds sufficient evidence for the adoration and worship of Stalin that used to exist in the minds of the citizens of the Soviet Union.

  • Joseph Stalin: The End Justifies The Means

    990 Words  | 4 Pages

    Through the folds of history, the phrase “the end justifies the means” has appeared often in an attempt for leaders to degrade their terrible acts and exaggerate their achievements that resulted. In the late 1800s, during the repressive and absolute rule of Stalin, many Russian citizens argued however, that Stalin did not justify his end with his means. The death of tens of thousands of Russian citizens from both execution and starvation, which were a direct result from his goals of a perfect communist utopian society, is not an act that can be ignored when considering his ultimately ‘good’ goals of pulling Russia out of poverty and stagnant economic and political growth. Joseph Stalin was able to greatly boost the Soviet Unions economy by instituting the 5-year plans with a resulting goal of rapid industrialization, and by instituting collectivization. Joseph Stalin ruled with an iron fist.
