Propaganda in the Soviet Union

During the Soviet Union, propaganda was used to control the people and make them believe a certain idea. It was a way to spread a political message or idea so that people accepted it as true, even if it wasn’t. It was done through posters, news reports, movies, books, and even music. The government wanted everyone to think that the Soviet Union was the best place to live and to make sure people agreed, they would only show and spread the ideas that agreed with what the government wanted. People who spoke up against the government or protested against it were not shown in the media and their voices were silenced.
