Joseph Stalin used indoctrination as a key tool to consolidate his power and control over the Soviet Union. He promoted a cult of personality through propaganda, emphasizing his leadership as essential to the nation's success and portraying dissenters as enemies of the state. The education system was heavily influenced by state ideology, teaching citizens to revere communism and the Communist Party while suppressing alternative viewpoints. Additionally, propaganda in the form of art, literature, and media was employed to reinforce his narratives and ensure widespread acceptance of his policies.
