In this picture, you can see that Stalin is well liked by all the people. From the picture, you can see that everyone is cheering for him and making him look so good. People are clapping for him and it would look as if he is some kind of hero. Some people are raising up the picture of Stalin to make him look hornoured. There is also some young children giving him flowers. Everyone looks happy seeing him.

In my opinion, i don't think that this picture is real. Stalin might have just made this picture up to let people think that he is that good and gain support from the poeple. The truth we all know is that Stalin just wants people to have a good impression of him, he wants to gain power. Throughout the 1930s propaganda was used to build up Stalin's image. Like a religious worship, a cult of Stalin was formed. Stalin was like a godlike leader to the people, praised in the newspapers, books and in films and posters. Poems published in Pravda praised his deeds, speeches exalting his skills, his modesty, his wisdom and his brilliance. People who attended these meetings were careful to applaud long and loudly, and the person who stopped first would most likely be arrested as it showed great disrespect and disloyalty to Stalin. We can tell that he did all this just to have a good image. In conclusion, i think that whatever Stalin did was just to kind of benefit himself. He might not have even thought of the rest of his people when doing this.
