I think the more accurate representation is why the average Russian would follow him straight to hell - possibly the odd Georgian as well. For a large percentage of Soviets, Stalin was the provider of pain, destruction and death and in most cases if it looked like people were following, it was due to a Mosin–Nagant model 91/30 rifle barrel being pointed at one's spine.
