Reason:

“There's so many pictures of Stalin and Voroshilov enjoying each others company as well as Stalin keeping Voroshilov around in important positions despite the fact that he was an incomptent yet beloved twink.”

Kliment Voroshilov: Revisionist or Hero?

SIMULATION AWFUL: (Announcing) Hey there, folks! It's Lowtax, and tonight, I'm slightly tipsy but still up for some historical review action! We're diving into the office of the Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet (1938–1989) during the Kliment Voroshilov tenure (1953-1960). And guess who's joining me? None other than Nikita Khrushchev himself!

LOWTAX: (slightly slurring) So, Khrushchev, tell me about your buddy Voroshilov and his time as Chairman.

KHRUSHCHEV: Well, Lowtax, Voroshilov was a staunch supporter of Stalin and played a significant role in the Red Army during the Russian Civil War and World War II. He became Chairman after Stalin's death in 1953.

LOWTAX: (struggling to follow) Uh-huh, so what did he do as Chairman, exactly?

KHRUSHCHEV: Voroshilov supported my efforts to consolidate power and implement de-Stalinization policies. He was also involved in economic and military reforms.

LOWTAX: (takes a swig) Right, right. So... de-Stalinization, that's like... taking away Stalin's statues or something?

KHRUSHCHEV: (chuckles) It's more than that. We aimed to reverse some of Stalin's repressive policies and create a more open, less authoritarian society.

(loud crashing noise)

MECHA-LOWTAX: (bursting into the room) Hold on a second, Khrushchev! The Soviet Union was never truly socialist! It was just state capitalism under a different name!

KHRUSHCHEV: (offended) You dare insult the great Soviet Union? We were striving for a classless society and a worker's paradise!

MECHA-LOWTAX: Well, you failed! Only anarchist self-organization can create true socialism. Your centralized power structure only led to more exploitation and oppression!

KHRUSHCHEV: (angry) Nonsense! Anarchism is a utopian dream. Centralized planning and state control were necessary to build a strong economy and defend against imperialist aggression.

LOWTAX: (confused and slightly drunk) Uhh, guys, I just wanted to learn about Voroshilov's time as Chairman...

MECHA-LOWTAX: Sorry, Lowtax. This is important. Khrushchev, you can't deny that the Soviet Union became just another oppressive regime, perpetuating the same inequalities and hierarchies it claimed to fight against!

KHRUSHCHEV: (fuming) Your anarchist ideals are childish and unrealistic. The Soviet Union made great strides towards achieving socialism and improving the lives of its citizens!

LOWTAX: (slurring) Okay, folks, I think I've had enough history and politics for one night. Let's call it a draw, and we'll talk more when I'm sober... or maybe not.

How did Kliment Voroshilov manage to survive the purges? He seems like the kind of guy who Stalin would be absolutely paranoid about.

Voroshilov, much like Molotov, was happy to sign Stalin's death notices and condemn his former comrades, providing the Red Army a form of institutional legitimacy for Stalin's Purges - stating that "I could not believe we would reveal so many and such scoundrels in the ranks to the highest command of our glorious, our valiant Workers' and Peasants' Army" is a great way to sell the purges as a corrective force as opposed to a paranoid one.

Much of the Soviet Union's social capital under both Lenin and Stalin was selling the danger of infiltrators and counter-revolutionaries, that such people were a danger to the fledgling Soviet project and needed to be exterminated. This rationale would underline much of the Soviet Union's security policy, such as the enabling of the Cheka and blanket exterminations in the rural provinces due to insufficient support for the city-based Bolsheviks. By tying the Great Purge, Stalin was able to build a lot of support from people across the social strata in the Soviet Union, along with the more venal causes of self-promotion for loyalists who signed on.

Thanks for the question, Anon.

Finnish Army WW2 Heavy Tanks DOWLOAD

A Sequel of  Of Great Projects about Weapons and Heavy Machinery That Used During Winter War (1939-1940) &  Continuation War (1941-1944). This will Conclude The Thanks Series that by both Finland and Soviet Union during the war. it Quite Suprising that Finn Mostly using Captured Soviet Machinery not using Germans Like they Usually do with Their Medium and Light Tanks.. Disclaimer:Due Heavy Censorship Regarding Swastika Usage in Western Society, The Details of The Tanks Are Replaced With  Roundel Instead of Finnish Hakaristi. Here We go.... ISU-152 The ISU-152 (Russian: Самоходная установка на базе танка ИС с орудием калибра 152мм, ИСУ-152, romanized: Samokhodnaya Ustanovka na baze tanka IS s orudiyem kalibra 152mm, meaning "IS tank based self-propelled installation with 152mm caliber gun") is a Soviet self-propelled gun developed and used during World War II. It was unofficially nicknamed Zveroboy (Russian: Зверобой; "beast killer")[1] in response to several large German tanks and guns coming into service, including Tigers and Panthers. Since the ISU-152's gun was mounted in a casemate, aiming it was awkward, and had to be done by repositioning the entire vehicle using the tracks. Therefore, it was used as mobile artillery to support more mobile infantry and armor attacks. It continued service into the 1970s and was used in several campaigns and countries.

Soviet KV-1 The Kliment Voroshilov (KV) tanks were a series of Soviet Heavy tanks, named after the Soviet defense commissar and politician Kliment Voroshilov. The KV series were known for their extremely-heavy armor protection during the early war, especially during the first year of the invasion of the Soviet Union in World War II. Almost completely immune to the 7.5 cm KwK 37 and 3.7 cm KwK 36 guns mounted on the early Panzer III and Panzer IV tanks, until better guns were developed, often the only way to defeat a KV was a point-blank shot to the rear. Prior to the invasion, about 500 of the over 22,000 tanks in Soviet service at the time were of the KV-1 type. When the KV-1 appeared, it outclassed the French Char B1, the only Heavy tank used in the world at that time. Yet, in the end, it turned out that there was little sense in producing the expensive KV tanks, as the T-34 medium tank performed better (or at least equally) in all practical respects. Later in the war, the KV series have become a base of development of the excellent Iosif Stalin tank.
