What do Russians think of Stalin? - BBC News

- Under Vladimir Putin, Russia's Victory Day has grown into a major public celebration - and today, once again, tanks will roll across Red Square.
The renewed stress on the Soviet victory against Nazi Germany has recast Joseph Stalin as a great war leader, glossing over his crimes and repression.
The latest polls show that even young Russians now have an increasingly positive view of Stalin, but the reality is not quite as straightforward as the statistics suggest.

What percentage of young people in Britain don't know about Churchill's famine in India?
@@thechumtoad Tell that to BBC
Churchill's famine in India wasn't meant as genocide or a political action.
It simply happened because Churchill prioritized the lives of young british men over Indian lives. Brutal and awful but war is war, it was necessary.
Killing tons of your own people and ukranians wasn't necessary and dont even compare it to western brutality.

@@amirhankhatsiev1035 Agreed, they think Stalin played a pivotal role in winning the war, but in reality, Russia would have won it either way, and Stalin’s tyranny actually made it harder for Russia than easier.
This idea that Stalin was a bad military commander originates from Khrushchev’s 1956 “Secret Speech”. Aside from Khrushchev, no one else said this. Marshals Zhukov, Vasilevsky and Golovanov, long after Khrushchev’s ousting (and by extension, Stalin’s regime), all praised Stalin’s ability as a wartime commander.

*hitler invades russia*
Stalin : im about to end this man's career
With the help of my teammates of course.(Roosvelt and Churchill) who later became worst enemies.
Here are real numbers for Stalin's years: After that, 7 million sounds quite a pedestrian number. Real numbers are even lower. Two best and most reliable documents regarding numbers of imprisoned and killed in Stalin’s days are (1) The Attorney General et al report to Nikita Khrushchev in 1954, saying 2.5 million were imprisoned for all Soviet period, and 600 thousand sentenced to death, and (2) Dr Victor Zemskov painstaking research, well known for its thoroughness. Zemskov had studied activities of the state security bodies from 1921 to 1954, and he discovered that in this period 650 thousand persons have been sentenced to death (not all of them were actually executed) and 2.3 million were sentenced to prison terms. That’s for 33 difficult years of Stalin’s rule. That’s all, folks.
Its funny that the BBC never actually mention where their sources come from concerning the number of dead or imprisoned during Stalins period, they start by mentioning that he was a repressive monster that killed millions to give shock value to the audience so that they believe their bullshit uncritically.

Of course anything that contradicts Western chauvinism must be revisionist! How dare they refuse to acknowledge the superiority the British Empire!
In 1945 Stalin was liked in all allied nations that won ww2, expecially in the USA, beucause it was told to the people for years that Uncle Stalin was helping the war effort against Germany, also thanks to the land lease.
The bad reputation came only after. In 1945 Churchill, the only person more respected than Stalin in the USA, was invited to New York and held a speech against Stalin, calling him a tyrant. This was part of the plan to change public opinion against him, since the rivality between West and East had started, and with that the Cold War.
In a couple of years Stalin went from one of the most respected world leaders to the most hated, and this perception still remains strong today.
This shows how easily people are influenced by political moves and propaganda and how true "in time of need, the enemy of my enemy is my friend" is.
Yeah propaganda can change a nation view pretty quickly one time you are great friend and an allied but just one negative speech about you and the whole nation just imidiately hate you, the power of propaganda is terrifying and it is very hard to identify it
Churchill was useless in big three.

The British should be the last people to point the finger and talk about crimes against humanity, just before the United States.

I’ve never thought the problem was war crimes, I’ve always thought the problem was burying them under the rug and not learning from them. The Brits buried a lot of the dark history of the British Empire, the Americans have buried a lot of dark history of the Cold War(I grew up in the US system, they teach us our past war crimes extensively up until the Cold War era where they just stop talking about them), the Russians have buried a lot of dark history related to Stalin’s famines, and Japan buried their brutal imperialism and militarism in the early 1900s. Germany for the most part is the only exception, all other countries that committed these war crimes should not only own up to them more, but should enforce the teaching of them in class.

As students and non-historians, I feel as though we tend to weigh both the negative and positive against one another to judge whether an individual was of historic significance as a hero or villain. Stalin and the Soviet Union made absolutely significant contributions towards the Allies' victory over the Axis in WWII, and I believe things would certainly have been a bit different, had it not been for their contributions to the war, but I also think it's important to learn of the terrible things that occurred while he was in power also, rather than recognizing only the positive OR negative. We should learn of BOTH the positive AND negative. I feel as though it would take away from a bias.
I see him as a super strict dictator whose brutal methods WORKED at bringing up the living standards of his citizens in the long run
Was he a good guy? No
was his methods good? NO

Stalin was much much worse than any other russian leader who would've fought in the war, the war would be won much earlier if it wasn't for stalin who executed generals who tried telling him Hitler is going to invade Russia, and it would of ended faster if Stalin didn't try to join the goddam axis.

That's not a valid comparison. Hitler started history's most destructive war WHICH DESTROYED GERMANY. So even without the Holocaust, no German can ever think positively of a leader who DESTROYED their country! The fact there was a Holocaust as well is two strikes against the Fuehrer. As I and others have said here, Stalin wasn't just a Totalitarian who caused the deaths of tens of millions (few people deny this!) The fact is that his rule with an iron fist had very real positive impacts, not least of which, the Industrialisation of the Soviet Union, which enabled its victory over Germany in World War II. Stalin left his country in a far stronger state than he found it (in 1953, the USSR had nuclear missiles and was a superpower rivaling the US). When Hitler shot a bullet in his head, Germany was nothing but a smoking pile of ruins. Huge difference!

As Russians, I declare to you that in our country, on the contrary, propaganda accuses both Stalin and the entire USSR in general of all human sins (Putin also constantly accuses Lenin of the collapse of the USSR, and reminds about Stalin's repressions). Stalin is popular with us because of the oligarchy that arose in Russia and because of the poor social level.
Stalin for all his faults gave not just Russians but all member states of the soviet union a far better and much more stable life than they had ever had prior.
But at least he still left many economic and military achievements for the countries of the Soviet Union and post-Soviet Russia, successes that today's capitalists can hardly claim.
Why would Putin accuse Lenin of collapse of USSR? He died 70 years before it. The USSR had only just been established a year before he died.

Next: What *Chinese* thinks of *Mao Zedong. Did Chinese really understand his atrocities, especially during *Cultural Revolution.*
Well, it's from my personal experience of speaking with some Chinese so it may lack credibility, but many of them actually knows. Furthermore, some of them even resent the ruling communist party itself for their censorship and draconian law. But, the most dominant emotion for both Mao and the CCP, I think is apathy. They really don't care anymore. What they do care about is to make China a global superpower, with cutting edge technology and unstopping of innovation. And they believe that communist party, for the past decade, has done a quite good job at bringing those in. So even if they don't agree with everything the party was or is, they still consider it to being a necessary evil, rather than a demon that needs to be eradicated.

Actually, many in the US know about its history of slavery, Native American genocide, Japanese American internment, Jim Crow laws, Chinese exclusion laws and many more.

@@aniruddhnaik5277Yes, he likely believed these things, alongside quoting that they bred "like rabbits". But in the context of imperial Britain and an overall racially minded world this is unsurprising. What is important is that he didn't act on these beliefs. He did not receive information about the severity of the Bengal famine for quite some time. And when he finally did, he instantly agreed that food should be dispatched from Iraq and Australia to aid the Indians, saying that “something must be done.” Within the war cabinet itself, Churchills role was one of broad oversight rather than detailed management, so the idea that he had much influence on actual relief aid to Bengal is far-fetched, especially at the height of the war. I think, exaggerated as the British role was in the famine, certain high ranking figures did make the situation worse, particularly the somewhat racist economist John Maynard Keynes, but assigning the blame to the prime minister is false.

@@velcranoxofficials9970 as an American I can say that is true and false. People die in war for their country or ideology and millions died in WWII for what they believed and to make there fathers and mothers proud, capitalists, communists and fascists all fought and died for their own cause, moral or not, and the western front was not a freebie as many died in Omaha beach and many died in Belgium, Holland, etc, as well millions of Soviets died in Poland, Ukraine, Moscow, Leningrad, etc so undermining ones effort of borderline disrespectful to those who died. Also, Churchill was not a good man however in my eyes he did a lot as mainland France would not exist if not for him taking power as opposed to Halifax, just like if DeGaulle wasn’t popular there would likely be less French resistance and France would not be the same, and if Wilkie had won the election over Roosevelt we likely would have stayed out even after Pearl Harbor and so forth. Maybe Britain did not have men to throw at the enemy but Britain in WWII was at least a symbol of the Nazis not winning and how the German army could fail (Battle of Britain). And although he did not engineer the Bengal Famine he didn’t help it as much as he should have, although this is also debatable due to the fact that Japan would have made British efforts to get food there difficult, so although this does not make it right there are a lot of factors in things and saying one is good or bad without looking deeper is just ignorant, not saying you are but I am saying many who don’t look at the time are being that way.
@@bltdffrnt860 the western allies were at fault, the USSR wanted to create a united front to counter nazi germany before the war because they actually saw germany's ambitions at taking europe, the allies didn't want to because they hoped that both countries would destroy eachother while they sat back and watched, this is why Stalin was forced to create a non aggression Treaty with germany because he had no other choice but to, when everything went to hell Britain and America waited off the invasion and didnt even move to try and take germany but instead took pockets of France and Belgium while moving UP italy instead of driving straight to the german industrial heartland like they should have because they hoped that germany would have weakened the ussr enough for them to actually invade e
the USSR, im not kidding you when the USSR invaded finland they wanted to bomb the caucuses and invade the soviet union while they were still fighting germany but that proved to be impossible because well the soviet union is strong, and they also wanted to make germany join them as they were making their way into their territory from France in hopes that the new front would be fought against the soviet union, thats what operation unthinkable was about and was named unthinkable because they found out that the soviets had alot more tanks than they did so invading them would be unthinkable because the soviets would have beaten them in Europe and the people in America and Britain would most likely start to riot asking for a peace Treaty causing the western allies to make peace and also let the USSR keep europe. So the only real victim in WW2 were the soviets because the nazis invaded their homes and the west wanted to invade them too.

The Soviet Union was going to invade while Germany was on the west. They had thousands of tanks lined up on the eastern border. The soviets also invaded Finland, Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. They also forced Romania to cease Moldova. It was obvious to Germany that the Soviets would try to take over Europe so they quickly invaded and were successful as they continued to push unprepared and unorganised divisions back very far. The battle that determined the Soviet-German war was the battle of Stalingrad. 80% of Soviet oil was in this southern Caucasus region.

As Russian I can say, that we know about repressions Stalin did, literally our grandparents were living at that time, so we know it was a really hard time full of fear, betrayals and hunger. But he did win the war, losing which would be worse than other awful things he did, and whether you want or not you can't change history, that's why we try to look at him from the positive side.

@@s-dyorindyorin-s149 hitler was just as evil as Stalin
An important nuance that people refuse to see is that the Soviet Union was not a "Russian" regime, Russian in the ethnic and national sense. The Bolsheviks and the early founders of the USSR were from all sorts of backgrounds and the purges and famines are really a phase that many countries that went through radical revolutions experienced. Look at France and Robespierre, the purges and the war with the Royalists, especially in Brittany. It's undeniable that there were big excesses, but it wasn't like the Nazi regime that exterminated people just based on imaginary ethnicity boundaries, charts, and definitions. It wasn't an ideology of hate at its root.
@@chargeentertainment2981 that's bull crap. Compare Obama, Biden, Trump with Hitler, but not Stalin. They are nothing alike.

He deserves respect not only in former soviet republics, but i. The whole world.
@@adevoidvessel Riddiculous. Stalin didn't care about western imperialism, he was a psychopat who was doing everything to achieve what he wished regardless of consequences. He didn't care about human lives. People were just tools for him. Millions of innocent people were imprisoned and worked in the labour camps. The Soviet tactics during WWII was terrible for their soldiers, they didn't care about how many of them can die, this is why so many of Soviet soldiers has perished. Not to mention, he actively cooperated with Hitler till 1941, by attacking Poland, having joint military parade, providing Germany with food and resources for the army.

Josef K Stalin was like the Mexican dictator porfilio diaz, industrialized the country at the expense of the people
He wouldn’t do that though.
He won’t just send peasants to gulag for nothing again!

All the peasants are already there comrade made me laugh!
@Alex The Awesome it's funny how the wars started by America in the middle east alone killed more than 2 million people
Wasn't Stalin the one who helped oversee the electrification of the Soviet Union, I think the slogan was something like "Communism is Soviet power plus electrification"
Next one: What Italian think about Mussolinni
All the normal people hate Mussolini but unfortunately there are still some dickheads who think Mussolini was great.
They tipically say:
Mussolini destroyed mafia ( was fought from before and was already crushed but americans armed them when they landed in sicily because they needed local support)
Or
When there was Mussolini train used to arrive on time( bullshit)
Or
What about the foibes ( fascists did the same before)
Or
Communism killed more people ( no communist country ever existed, only socialist)
Or
Mussolini invented the pensions ( existed from 1896 or something like that)

There was a cerimony if you didn't want to become fascist:
They beated you with bats ( like, the police one, not the baseball one ) and forced you to drink a special oil that caused diarhea. I don't know the name of it in english, sorry

What's so bad about Churchill?
He was definitely. A racist
And made Bengal starve so that the japenese would have a harder. Time resupplying
Of course he won the war and was certainly a great wartime leader
But was incompetent in Peace time and thats why he was immediately voted out
Pretty much lmao.
@@nandakishorem8238 correct
Btw just about everyone was racist
@UNION WORLD no Japan seized Burma which supplied India with food and Indias supply was already fragile
No food was donated because of the hard profit stance of Churchill
-if you can't handle it it's your fault -
Which is bs obviously

Strange thing that my granddad, after having been in GULAG for 10 years (for literally nothing, he was then rehabilitated and even received some benefits as a victim) still would say that Stalin was a good leader. He used to say that he had seen what kind of people there were in the camp and many of them deserved their punishment. Not all of them, but many. I could never make my mind about it. Maybe he was still afraid that everything he said was reported.
Wow that's insane
even if he was in for nothing, what did the state claim he was in for?
@@PowersOfDarkness Honestly, I don;t know for sure. He didn't like to talk about it. he was acused of "antisoviet agitation" or something like that and i don't know what stood behind it. In addition, he was kulak's son which was already pretty bad. I have another story in the family, my greatgranddad on my mom's side. He had medals for the War but still he was acused of stealing half a bag of wheat and sent to the camps. He was a driver and had to deliver some goods somewhere, so when he arrived to his destination point the bag was missing. My grandma was only 14 and she had to travel to the camps somewhere far in the north to ask for reconsidering of his case. He was released after that, but there were equal chances that he would serve his time there. Judging by what my grans said, it was very easy to get
to jail.
bruh maybe hes right and ur dumb lol
Your granddad was brainwashed while he was in the gulag. All your leaders have been dictators and all dictators are cowards.
BBC trash talking Stalin : *Good*
Indians pointing out Churchill : *Bad*
_The Lion, The Witch and The Audacity of The Brits_
Because Churchill wasn't a bad person.
He is someone, who gets presented as worse than he actually was.
"But omg genocide in Bengal" First of all, it was a famine. Second, Churchill wanted to prevent the famine, he even asked FDR to send food to india.
For some reason stalin and hitler are the only people in ww2 mentioned by people all over the world till this day, while Mussolini, Eisenhower and Churchill aren't mentioned by anyone at all.
Edit: since a lot of people misunderstand my meaning, I meant that Eisenhower and churchill are not as famous as stalin and Hitler when it comes to ww2.
Its the propaganda man they want to manipulate us with that 5G tower,Aliens and nuke man :v
Thats interesting. Ive heard a lot about them. Then again Im interested in history and read a lot so maybe I just know a little bit more than most people.
lol what are you talking about
@@luigimini2124 dont believe me? Everytime I discuss ww2 in any historical community they say so, ask any history teacher or anyone and you'll see.
@@jackgrant7356 tell luigimini here, he thinks we are joking.
Stalin took a crippled country with revolution and anarchy and made it world superpower.
He is one of the major reason for power of Russia so, I don't think people have negative perception of him.
Why he did a lot of things good and bad... He lead a country from bottom to top with his leadership.
I hate Stalin but he has so many quotes that are just facts. I love his quotes
he beat the nazis too
