@Full Metal Raymond What's it?
Hi
@Full Metal Raymond here we are
It's difficult to say that Joseph Stalin was anything short of a totalitarian dictator.
There are people who disagree with that assessment, believing that the structure of the Soviet government checked his power, or that he was some sort of socialist ascetic who lived simply to serve the people. Neither of those arguments refutes the notion that Stalin was a dictator, and neither has any basis in fact.
Let's start with the definition of a dictator - a ruler with total power over a country. Joseph Stalin personified this definition. His policy choices were pursued with all means necessary, including wholesale killing. And while there are things that he wanted and never got, that was never the result of someone standing up to him, because standing up to him within the Soviet Union always resulted in death.
Stalin's power, in fact, went beyond that. He wasn't merely a dictator, he was a totalitarian dictator. Life in the Soviet Union required complete subservience not just to the state and the communist sanial contract, life in the Soviet Union required complete subservience to Stalin. His name was invoked in every aspect of life, at every level, like the name of God in a theocratic society. School children sang songs about him, movies were made about his heroic exploits, his likeness graced every public area (frequently in counter-factual recreations of great moments from history), an military units fought for his glory. Even things like scientific achievements and breakthroughs in engineering were attributed in part to him.
stalin was not a dictator
There are people who argue that this simply is not true, citing the pluralistic structure of the Soviet government and the presence of the Politburo as checks on Stalin's power. This argument is, quite simply, stupid. Stalin became the General Secretary two years before Lenin died, and from that point on he controlled who was and was not given favor by the Party. While that is not absolute power in and of itself, and others in the Politburo had significant power, it was enough for Stalin to isolate Lenin in his final days and other rivals in the years to come. And he didn't merely control the politics, he controlled the ideology, too. Only his views were valid, including his views on Communism, Socialism, Leninism, history, economics, and military strategy and tactics. Anyone who rivaled him, let alone stood up to him, had to die. Trotsky, Kamenev, Zinoviev, Kirov - the list goes on. And those who stood with him, like Molotov, Khruschev and Beria, had to drink and dance on his command.
the ussr was the most democratic hierarchical state to exist still to this day
