is this just atrocity propaganda, or was stalin actually a mass murderer? deleting someone from a photograph is not a good sign.

      Holy shit yezhov was added.

      I’ve been saying for some time now, as somewhat of a thought experiment, that we couldn’t prove he wasn’t added in. Nobody has ever offered me evidence to show he was edited out, so it was just as likely he was added in.

      But looking at the picture on my phone and zooming in, really focusing, I now believe this conclusion.

      He is sandwiched between Stalin and the short wall, literally he would be compressed against it were he actually there. There is no space for him to be standing there. And he doesn’t look like he’s actually there, he’s just looking into the distance while Stalin is giving an actual look at the camera, acknowledging it, while the others are looking at the newly built canal. What would yezhov even be doing there?
