2018-12-03 16:44:56 UTC  

Many of them, in fact, think stalin is the best ruler the ussr ever had

2018-12-03 16:45:01 UTC  

I know it wont change your mind

2018-12-03 16:45:04 UTC  

the people's first reaction to seeing the USSR collapse was to try to stop it

2018-12-03 16:45:06 UTC  

And usually the ones who claim tha lived under stalin

2018-12-03 16:45:12 UTC

2018-12-03 16:45:20 UTC

2018-12-03 16:45:53 UTC  

He's just saying "I'm gunna post what people in America thought of the ussr" over and over again

2018-12-03 16:46:02 UTC

2018-12-03 16:48:22 UTC  

And considering I'm from Belarus @DA GOMMIE JOO

2018-12-03 16:48:48 UTC  

Most people who hate the ussr lived under gorbachev

2018-12-03 16:48:56 UTC  

And only lived under gorbachev

2018-12-03 16:49:05 UTC  

So I can't blame them for hating the ussr

2018-12-03 16:49:21 UTC  

But those who lived back in the good old days

2018-12-03 16:49:27 UTC  

They always tell you otherwise

2018-12-03 16:49:49 UTC  

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).

2018-12-03 16:49:55 UTC  

Heres a book

2018-12-03 16:50:03 UTC  

>New York

2018-12-03 16:50:07 UTC  

Nice one

2018-12-03 16:50:10 UTC  

You should watch the video though

2018-12-03 16:51:00 UTC  

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.”

2018-12-03 16:52:49 UTC  

>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.
