So do you want me to?
Whatever ill do it anyway
Many of them, in fact, think stalin is the best ruler the ussr ever had
I know it wont change your mind
the people's first reaction to seeing the USSR collapse was to try to stop it
And usually the ones who claim tha lived under stalin
But i might as well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvcwKsz5Ub8 why was this recommended to me?
He's not listening anymore
He's just saying "I'm gunna post what people in America thought of the ussr" over and over again
While he desperately tries to find evidence
Good stalling technique
America no.1
ussr no.300
Hahahahaha
No dumbass. People from the ussr
haha
but yeah if you find any footage of actual soviet citizens reacting to the collapse then you will see them pushing against yeltsinism
Ill get another
You'll get more furry porn?
funny how you mention belarus when they still celebrate soviet holidays
And considering I'm from Belarus @DA GOMMIE JOO
Most people who hate the ussr lived under gorbachev
And only lived under gorbachev
So I can't blame them for hating the ussr
But those who lived back in the good old days
They always tell you otherwise
But they'll always be a rebellious minority
The Education of a True Believer by Lev Kopelev. New York, Harper & Row, 1980 (Originally published in the US in Russian, 1978).

Nice one
You should watch the video though
What do people think of the ussr who were living in the ussr?
>They miss it, especially people who experienced both. This seems to be a reasonably reliable objective report of a survey that is pretty typical: “According to the latest poll conducted by the independent research agency Levada Center, the proportion of those who confessed to negative feelings over the collapse of the USSR is currently 56 percent, with 28 percent claiming their sentiments are entirely positive and 16 percent deeming the question too complex to give an unambiguous answer.”
>It's not easy to say why because there are many factors involved. One is the collapse of the Soviet Union as a world superpower and the concomitant loss of prestige. In a very unMarxist way, nationalism was a strong force in the old Soviet Union. For example, they call their part of World War II, you know, the part that actually beat the Nazis at the cost of 25 million lives, “"The great patriotic war.”
>Then there is the loss of the non-Russian republics, and one of the Russian Belarus, which geographically and in other ways diminished deal of the USSR. That is part of why Russia a brutal war to stop the secession of Chechnya, when Russians as a group tend to hate Chechyans and vice versa, and after the other Republics seceded by agreement with a kiss and a handshake.
