he results of censorship in the Soviet Union included the control of information and ideas, the suppression of dissent, and the shaping of a narrative that served the interests of the Communist regime. Censorship restricted artistic expression, controlled the media, and suppressed any form of dissent or opposition to the government. It contributed to the creation of a "cult of personality" around Stalin through propaganda, limiting access to alternative perspectives and reinforcing the state-approved ideology. Censorship also played a role in the russification policy, imposing Russian culture on diverse Soviet republics and limiting the expression of various cultural and religious practices.
