The purges in the Soviet Union during the 1930s, particularly under Joseph Stalin, created a climate of fear and repression, drastically altering everyday life. Millions were arrested, executed, or sent to labor camps, targeting perceived political dissidents, intellectuals, and ordinary citizens. This widespread terror stifled dissent, discouraged creativity, and led to a culture of suspicion, as people feared they could be denounced by friends or family. Ultimately, the purges solidified Stalin's totalitarian regime, reshaping Soviet society by prioritizing loyalty to the state over individual rights and freedoms.
