The Fatal Paranoia of Joseph Stalin #shorts #history #stalin

Joseph Stalin's paranoia eventually led to his own death. His rule of no one being allowed to enter his bed chambers resulted in his execution of loyal guards who were just trying to help in what they thought was an emergency.

[Luka_]

Imagine screaming for help and then executing the people who try to help you

[redactedagentdataexpunged]

"Should we investigate?"

"Should you shut the fuck up before you get both of us killed?"

[CrestedSaguaro]

The worst job in Russia:

Being a guard for Joseph Stalin. You're damned if you do help him, and damned if you don't. It's a losing game!

[eliasujashvili]

Staling *Seizure*
Guards: Nah we ain’t falling for that.

[amishpandey]

Mr. Stalin played reverse uno card on himself💀💀💀

[ValphaVolf]

Imagine he actually survives and then executes the guys who entered his chambers for disobeying his orders

[rydyly]

Serves him right. Don't prey upon the good nature of people who (supposedly) care about you.

[TheHomelesslander]

Stalin: “No man will ever kill me, for they will fail and be executed.”

God: “Fine, I’ll do it myself.”

[niteturfs]

In Russia, they don’t have “the boy who cried wolf” nah they got “the death of Stalin”

[za_warudoo]

The guards did a good thing by doing nothing.

[theonlynoob]

“Hey Stalin! How are you doi- oh… he’s dead…” - OverSimplified

[sym]

... and the guards were executed for not helping him!

[EesaUsman-peik]

Joseph stalin takes advantage of his guards instantly regrets it

[DVNEngineer]

"It's just a prank bro"
the prank:

[katherinetodd]

Morale of the story treat your guards better.

[A-RedRightHand]

Moral of the story: Treat your Guards like VIP's
And then they will protect you til they die
And don't test them with a death threat unless you're an idiot

[maxthecharacter]

Even if the guards had rushed in at the right moment, I have a feeling that Stalin would've put them to death just because they entered his room.

[smarticus]

Those guards lost a game of Simon Says IRL

[turquoiz_the_potato]

Morale: Don't let your guard down. *Literally.*

[Ryenobal]

I heard that his doctors also took their time treating him; they wanted to make sure he would pass.
