To facilitate the expropriations of farmland, the Soviet government portrayed kulaks as class enemies of the USSR. >More than 1.8 million peasants were deported in 1930–1931.[4][5][6] The campaign had the stated purpose of fighting counter-revolution and of building socialism in the countryside. This policy, carried out simultaneously with collectivization in the Soviet Union, effectively brought all agriculture and all the labourers in Soviet Russia under state control. >Hunger, disease, and mass executions during dekulakization led to at least 5,000 to 6,000 deaths from 1929 to 1933,[7] though higher estimates also exist, British historian Robert Conquest estimating in 1986 that 5 million people may have died.[8] The results soon became known outside the Soviet Union. The Bolsheviks preferred to blame the "rural counterrevolution" of the kulaks, intending to aggravate the attitude of the people towards the party: "We must repulse the kulak ideology coming in the letters from the village. The main advantage of the kulak is bread embarrassments." Red Army peasants sent letters supporting anti-kulak ideology: **"The kulaks are the furious enemies of socialism. We must destroy them, don't take them to the kolkhoz, you must take away their property, their inventory."**
