"People won against" Stalin?

34
The Great Patriotic War for our people is one of the most tragic and at the same time brilliant dates in its great stories. In this war, the people showed all their best sides, lived in full force, fought and created. Our enemies do their best to belittle this feat, worthy of gods and titans. One of the “black myths” born by them is that the people won the war in spite of Joseph Stalin. But if you read articles that are not soaked with lies of various kinds of spiteful critics who hate the Soviet era of our history, and study this period in a comprehensive manner, then you can point out a number of important moments that completely disprove this myth.

"People won against" Stalin?

K.Vasilyev, "Farewell Slav", 1975.

First, Stalin was one of the main ideological inspirers of the process of industrialization of the state. So, in 1927, he was told the famous phrase that “we have 10 years to catch up with developed countries, otherwise they will crush us”. To do this, it was necessary to suppress the strong resistance of the supporters of the development of the NEP, “tighten the belts” and turn the state into a powerful industrial power in just three part five-year periods. This was already a feat. One can imagine what would happen if the Soviet Union took the path of the NEP supporters, when the Wehrmacht mechanized armada would encounter an army like the Polish, without a powerful defense industry, of thousands tanks and aircraft and the ability to produce them in thousands. And all this is the merit of Stalin.

The industry “for war” was rebuilt and built over 10 years, so even the Moscow metro had two uses: one of the modes of transport and a powerful and roomy bomb shelter. An industrial base was specially built in the east of the USSR, so that if the western regions were under bombardment or, God forbid, were captured by the enemy, the country could supply the army with everything necessary. The enterprises were built "double", with the same purpose.

Secondly, the country where a large part of the population was illiterate, simply at amazing rates, first eliminated illiteracy, and then began to increase the educational potential at a pace that eventually resulted in the Soviet educational system becoming the best in the world. The Germans were then amazed at the striking changes: if in the First World War the Russian soldier was mostly an illiterate or semi-literate peasant, then in the Second World War the Germans had already encountered competent, often technically savvy workers, collective farmers. These people could already have mastered the management of a tank, an airplane, become an anti-aircraft gunner, etc. It’s not for nothing that they say that “the Soviet teacher won the war”. And it is clear that education itself does not develop by itself, the country's top leadership has given it enormous influence.

Thirdly, Stalin and the top leadership of the USSR love to scold for collectivization, in fact, so-called. “Excesses” were not small, but in the end food security was ensured. Agriculture could provide raw materials industry, feed the city and the army, including during the war.

Fourth, great attention was paid to the army, the fleet, large resources that could be spent on education, science, the construction of houses, light industry enterprises, etc., went to defense needs. They tried to arm the army with the most modern weapons according to the principle “it is better to feed your soldier than a stranger”. And then Stalin had nothing to do with it?

Fifthly, the greatest attention was paid to the patriotic and technical education of young people. Various circles, clubs, gliders, parachutes, war games, films, music, etc., were aimed at educating the patriot of his country, who was skillful and versed in technology. Negative tendencies of 20's were curtailed when the struggle against the “damned tsarism” was going on and under its cover they destroyed “Russian great-power chauvinism”, together with A. Pushkin and Alexander Nevsky.

Sixth, and this is a very important factor, the “fifth column” of the “Trotskyists-internationalists”, who could stab in the back in the event of war, was largely disarmed.

And all this was done in spite of Stalin? It was during this period that the system was created, it is called by the name of Stalin - Stalin, who broke the back of another effective management system - Hitler, which was able to subjugate almost the whole of Europe. In order for people to win, they needed an effective system that took care of weapons, supplies of ammunition, uniforms, food, medicine, treatment of the wounded, feeding of cities and much more.

One of the myths that supports the idea of ​​“victory contrary to the system” is the myth of “decapitating the army” before the war. But what the documents say: in the years of mass repressions of the commanders who were shot, 1410 was a man of commanding personnel, not 30-100 thousand, according to “de-Stalinizers”. There were a total of 30 thousands dismissed for health reasons, political reasons, drunks and other reasons, but of these, over 12 thousands of people were able to recover, proving their “purity”. In addition, in 1938-1940, the army received 271 500 new commanders, that is, ten times more than it lost from "mass" repression. During this period, military education grew steadily: if in 1936, 13 thousand people received higher academic military education, 125 thousand people received secondary military education, then 1941 thousand commanders received academic education and 28 thousand military commanders by 206 year. As a result, we met the war with an educated army. In addition, those commanders who, during the Great Patriotic War, will become heroes, our best commanders, have advanced to the top.

Stalin perfectly learned the lessons of the First World War, the Russian Empire died due to the fact that it did not neutralize the assorted “fifth column” before the war, which eventually organized the February Revolution. The empire did not industrialize and did not introduce universal primary education. The activities of foreign agents, both German, Austrian, and supposedly "allied" - English, French, have not been stopped. A complete failure in the field of ideology, the church in society no longer had its former authority, and almost all of the intelligentsia were pro-Western, conducting subversive work against their own state. As a result - a total disaster.

That is why in 30-ies and gave a decisive battle of various kinds of destructive elements, undermining the unity of the people in the face of a common threat. That is why Stalin is so hated - he did not allow Russia to be “devoured” in 1941, preparing the country and the people for a decisive battle for survival.

          I think that we are discussing a too complicated thing - the role of the individual in history. Thanks to which and contrary to whom. I do not personally blame Stalin, but of course he, as the head of state, also bears personal responsibility for all this, that’s all. It is clear that he personally did not kill and did not plant, but he built this system around him, he became interested in the internal party struggle and almost did not notice the external threat when he noticed that much could not be changed, because later it turned out that the mistakes were monstrous in this matter, monstrous excesses. There is no such thing that everyone in the country is happy with everything, but this is not always an occasion to send them to Siberia or even worse ..

        Tupolev, Tukhachsky, Rokosovsky, Korolev, Blucher.

        Tupolev sat for a rastroat, yes, but he was released, realized and did quite a few for the country's defense, including power.
        Tukhachevsky, a red Napoleon, who owes defeat in the first year of the war, as a commander-ZERO.
        Rokossovsky was slandered by the Tukhachevsky conspirators, rehabilitated, commanded the fronts, and enjoyed the exceptional respect of Stalin. Khrushchev suggested that he should blab something bad, Stalin answered for me.
        Korolev, being slandered, rehabilitated, worked to create a rocket = nuclear shield and space, where there is not at least a small indication that Korolev had accounts for Stalin.
        Blucher-his activity in the Far East, the absence of any combat readiness of troops, the collapse of command and control, an attempt to replace the Government with his own decisions, is a sufficient basis for what he answered for. As a commander, ZERO.
        Evaluation of your dreams that allegedly Tukhachevsky and Blucher, and with them hundreds of "brigade commanders" allegedly constituted the color of the army, is an absolute lie.
        The boundaries of the commentary on him allow us to cite an interesting list of "great" commanders of the ranks of brigade commanders. Anyone who will be very, very sour.
        The defeat of PAVLOVA District, the result of PAVLOVA and its leadership, or rather the lack and direct non-implementation of the Directive of June 18, and then because of the collapse of the Western District, the result is a defeat in Kiev, etc.

    `` A complete failure in the field of ideology, the church in society no longer had its former authority '' - this statement is true in relation to the upper strata of that society and to the intelligentsia, carried away by Westernism, but in relation to the peasantry it is not true. The words of Trotsky (Leiba Bronstein) that if the whites had put forward the slogan "For Faith, Tsar and Fatherland", then we would have lost. Monarchist organizations among whites (mostly Republicans) were in an almost illegal position, which was closely followed by the "allies" (England, France). I'm not saying about the fact that only a few who ended up badly (died on the same day, etc.) were called out to destroy temples from the local population. Local secretaries of party committees baptized their children (secretly). When the war began, the temples were filled with people (despite the continuing "godless five-year plan"), only later they were opened, so to speak, officially. The authority of the Church was for the people., just when people saw an impious priest did not spread their opinion about him to the whole The church, as it is now. And, not to mention the Red Terror, ask the old people what work for work days in the village is. The grandmother, who told me about how they lived until the age of 17 and how they later began to live and how churches were demolished, every few minutes she asked, “but for what I’m telling the truth, nothing will happen?” This is about the “great, wise” Stalin. In our village until 1917. there were two schools and one vocational school, and in the neighboring church a library for peasants (as it was called), at the entrance to which everyone was given white gloves to keep books.

    One of the “black myths” born by them is that the people allegedly won the war in defiance of Joseph Stalin

    Imagine, the Germans took Moscow, took Leningrad, Stalingrad, Voronezh and moved troops towards the Urals. Stalin died during the bombing of a train, moving towards Kuibyshev.
    Well, that’s the end of the country.
    But no, everywhere in the villages and villages of the country people rise in the hands of guns, sticks, pitchforks, knives. They attack the columns of the German army, destroy the enemy rear, attack them day and night.
    The enemy flinched and began to retreat to the western part of the country, but even there they were not given rest, they chased after every German until they beat him to death.

    Now, only in this case I acknowledge the victory,people over the Nazis.

    .
    Actually, the system won, people and power are included in this system.
    The authorities created a military industrial complex, plants, factories, organized ore mining, smelting into iron, and the production of weapons and ammunition. They trained people for pilots, tankers, sailors, raised morale, and people, each in its place, showed heroism, training and savvy.
    But only in this case, when power and people are united, victory is possible.
    But when power is divorced from the people (as it is now) and they live parallel to each other, there can be no question of any victory, in any case.

      But this is not a post-perestroika period. And yes, I recognize the merit of the power of the USSR in mobilizing the economy and human resources, I acknowledge the merit in building a strong ideological component, which already in the middle of the war did not revolve around the personality of Stalin and, in the best case of the Party, such a concept as Motherland in ideology surfaced. The Germans taught the Party and Stalin a lot, perhaps even saved the USSR by rallying society around real values. But here are the mistakes of the party and government of the outbreak of war (even the betrayal of the commanders is also their mistake) I can not forgive, sorry. The country's leadership is responsible for everything, it’s already taken.

    I highly recommend looking at the books of Sergei Kara Murza - the figures and facts show the complete defeat of industry as a result of the collapse of the Union, a terrifying drop in living standards and millions of people killed directly or indirectly. The West has achieved what Hitler could not. Some rise in Russia and Kazakhstan in recent years is explained (I think everyone will agree) to a greater extent by the sale of oil and the high price for it. If Stalin and the state (people) made difficult decisions, then at least not for the selfish interests of the oligarchs, but As a result of the collapse of the Union, the losses are comparable, but people had to suffer and often die not for their homeland, but for the villas and foreign accounts of these ....

      The West has achieved what Hitler could not.

      Did the West sit in Belovezhskaya Pushcha, did the West plunder factories for metal, did the West cut Armenians in Azerbaijan and vice versa, did the West shoot the parliament in Moscow from tanks, did the West export gold from the USSR?
      Until the Russians begin to admit their own mistakes they will all be held for fools, all this conspiracy leads to the fact that, instead of analyzing and taking into account the experience of their cruel mistakes, the whole country believes that some mythical British intelligence officers have destroyed the country / Marsinae / Jews / Ukrainians, until then, the entire West will consider Russian unworthy of owning their own land. In the 20-22m, the union was not destroyed, but in the 91st it was destroyed. Think what the difference was! The West in the 22nd The West was more hostile, the country was filled with class alien elements that did not support the socialist course, there was no money, there was permanent famine in the country, a fierce internal party struggle, but it did not collapse and became an empire, and there was no "wise Stalin" at the helm. One of the greatest "achievements" of the USSR was the upbringing of the elite who happily poured all the money and power, blind faith in this elite, servility and cowardice.
      Modern Russia is doing the same thing, and at this time you are being fed stories about the West, and you know that many of you subconsciously believe that because either the West decides everything and we just have to passively beat off his initiatives, or that nothing is said about us depends on, and at this time, the country is degrading and writhing in agony to the joyful little fenders of reports from the London exchange on futures quotes for Urals oil.
      And you know, Russia’s dictator is needed, but where the hell do you get it now, more firewood for the Inquisitor’s fires has ended under your joyful applause.

        So call those who ruined the country in 91, what are you making claims to Stalin?
        He at one time and in his place, reflected the offensive of the whole of EUROPE, did not surrender the country, why your juggling and throwing from one topic to another?
        Tell me honestly, in '91, a coup d'etat was made with the aim of redistributing state property by a group of persons, by prior conspiracy in their personal interests.
        Was Western aid used, yes used, since the structure of which was headed by Chubais was staffed by U.S. intelligence officers who aimed to destroy all the more or less knowledge-intensive and breakthrough industries in Russia. This is FACT.
        Do you have the opposite?
        In addition, you have the Ruins icon here, did you decide to teach us what to do now, when your once republic that surpasses TURKEY by 4 times, comparable in potential power to France, has become a laughing stock and reserve of Bandera banderlogs.

    You can reread "Khrushchev's speech at the 20th Congress", unexpectedly DO NOT FIND facts there, think ...
    And say it.
    "The people won in spite of Khrushchev!" But Khrushchev hid and took revenge in 1953. Then, within 10 years, he drove the economy of the USSR into a rare one ... And he handed over power to the Trotskyists who were released.

    Why do you believe Khrushchov? People!!! You are Russians. You grandfathers had great-grandfathers who really BUILT a new life and by 1953 they built.
    By 1949, the USSR was the first among the warring countries to abolish the card system ... And, then ... Then our fathers betrayed the Teacher. The result is outside the window.

      Lyudmila Verbitskaya, president of the Russian Academy of Education, deputy chairman of the Society for Russian Literature, expressed the view that Leo Tolstoy’s novel War and Peace, as well as some works by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, could be excluded from the school curriculum.
      Ludmila Alekseevna was born on June 17, 1936 in Leningrad. Her father, Alexei Bubnov, was a well-known statesman who, since 1943, headed the Leningrad City Executive Committee. On the last day of August 1949, as part of the acclaimed “Leningrad case”, he was arrested, a year later he was shot on charges of communicating with enemies of the people, and four years later he was rehabilitated.
