Persuasion

"Stalin acted not through persuasion, explanation and patient cooperation with people, but by imposing his concepts and demanding absolute submission to his opinion. Whoever opposed this concept or tried to prove his viewpoint and the correctness of his position was doomed to removal from the leading collective and to subsequent moral and physical annihilation."
-Nikita Khrushchev,
"The Cult of the Individual and Its Consequences" (February 24, 1956),
"Secret Report to the 20th Party Congress of the CPSU"
