Did joseph stalin do anything good?

Answer 1

In some ways, Stalin was very beneficial to the Soviet Union. He industrialized the USSR and made them a world power in military and industry.

He also started their space program, which was innovational to the entire world.

However, in other ways, he was detrimental to the USSR. He helped instigate the Cold War, which ultimately led to the breakdown of the USSR. He murdered millions of people, and his style of winning wars, (widely known as throwing people at the battle until the enemy retreats) resulted in tens of millions of both soldier and civilian deaths in World War 2, and even today this is partially the reason there are less than 9 men for every 10 women in Russia.
