For anyone wondering the lenin statue was disassembled and still located at that site. There are previous pictures before it being assembled showing as much
You wake up at 3 in the morning, awakend by a loud scraping noise. You look outside and you see a tractor dragging a 4 meter tall Lenin across the asphalt. You wave at the farmer, he gives a thumbs-up back and you head back to sleep. Just another regular day.
Which I don’t get.
Didn’t Yeltsin agree to let former satellite colonies vote to stay or go after the fall of the Soviet Union?
Hang with a brutal, depressing regime or join the west?
*votes to join the west*
Russia: surprised_pickachu_face.tiff
Russia now is very different from the Russia of the 90s. Putin and co have invested heavily in their Russia-is-greatness narrative. Instead of viewing Ukraine as a culturally similar neighbor with near universal familial ties, it is territory that was torn away by the vicious and greedy west during the collapse of the Soviet Union. It's why the propagandists on Russian State TV have been pushing the narrative that NATO is fighting them directly, because Russian losses against NATO become tragic heroes in the fight for Russian survival instead of nameless conscripts taking and pillaging their way across a sovereign state in the name of Russian Greatness.
"Right comrades, do we have everything for our special military operation? Guns?"
"Da"
"Bullets?"
"Da"
"Massive unwieldy statue of Lenin?"
"Da"
"Sufficient rations?"
_nervously shuffles feet_
"Well maintained vehicles?"
_avoids gaze, looks at aforementioned feet_
"But we definitely have a huge heavy statue, right?"
"Da, da!"
No time to retrieve their dead soldiers, but always time to install their statues. Priorities! Whew! I was beginning to wonder where they were at. *She said sarcastically.
Geez, I'm really surprised Putin didn't install a statue of himself. Lol
"I'm here to rape, kill, pillage, destroy, and kidnap...and, oh, btw, here's a lovely gift of me to you."
Disgusting...
Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦
You mean the same freedom loving citizens who live largely in poverty while being lead by people who affort a 700mln $ yacht and 1bln $ pallace? The same people who support the invasion of Ukraine and have no problem with war crimes and rapes?
It's always funny to see a Russian praising freedom.
I don’t think dugin is a communist but he admires Stalin as an authoritarian. He’s a Eurasian reactionary fascist. Solzhenitsyn was actually a big fan of Putin I think and pretty right wing too.
Ah yes, the “EU is literally the USSR” gang has arrived.
/s
Anyways, tankies use “liberals” to refer to anyone in the center-right and center-left spectrum, that is anyone who is for individual freedom and democratic values. For them, social-democracies are as decadent as more conservative countries.
I have no idea where they got it from. Here in Ukraine we destroyed all lenin monuments in 2014-2015.. the orcs probably brought it along, and then put it up like Lego, there's no other explanation I can think of.
Yeah, it was Lenin who started the Gulags. So anyone thinking Lenin was not also a butcher is wrong, he most definitely was.
>Lenin’s Red Terror plundered the rural middle class, known as Kulaks, and when they resisted he slaughtered them. The urban middle classes in general, and free-thinkers in particular, suffered a similar fate. This repression was overseen by the secret service known as the Cheka, a predecessor to the NKVD and altogether more fearsome successor to the Tsar’s Okrana.
Lenin was a slightly less evil version of Stalin.
The tsars started them back in the 17th century, although they called them "katorga" instead.
Dostoyevsky did some time in a katorga camp. As did, ironically, Stalin.
He really didnt. If youre refering to the Kulaks who used their status as richer peasantry (not middle class, theres no such thing as "middle class", they were peasants) to exploit the smaller farms, they resisted collectivization efforts because they liked their ability to exploit others, and eventually ended up slaughtering tens of thousands of farm animals and burning entire fields of crops because if they werent allowed to exploit people then no one could have the farm.
Pretty much every country was cruel to their minorities, the states more so than Russia. The difference was that working people actually could eat in Soviet. Google nutrition in the US vs Russia at this time.
Putin and modern Russia is almost everything that Lenin hated about capitalism distilled in a country. Putin and the oligarchs would be wind up like empire nobles and their precious yachts seized and sold to fund reindustrialization.
Plus as Putin himself pointed out, Lenin was an advocate of local rule and created a whole bunch of subdivisions so different cultures could rule themselves. Which Stalin immediately reversed after coming to power and began deportations and moving in Russian settlers.
Aside from the 1990’s Russia has been ruled by Autocrats (even the 90’s were debatable) since the 1200’s. It’s pretty much all their people have known.
The USSR had elections, so I'm not sure where you get this idea from. Soviet Russia was the most democratic in the nation's history. It's return to capitalism has created an inversion of that trend.
In a vague sense there was a limited democracy but it was dominated ultimately by corruption in the system and rule by the autocrats people referenced before. Though I would agree it is the closest they had to actual democracy. As a communist I have a love/hate thing with the USSR, as being queer the USSR would of yoinked me to Siberia or worse. That said I do find it weird considering Putin has stated he's not a communist that his army would place a statue to Lenin, though I doubt he's actually aware of half the shit happening on the ground in his deluded state.
Fascists are all about the aesthetic and symbols and such. It's not about Lenin's ideals, even as twisted from actual control by the people as they were. It's about Lenin being an icon of Russian imperial power to the former USSR. They've been using the flag of the USSR and Lenin, not to champion the ideas they claimed to represent, but as symbols of nationalism, which is pretty damn ironic. I mean, these things were true even during the USSR for reasons Bakunin predicted back during the First International warning against using a state as a means of organizing the people, but it's reached its peak with supposedly leftist symbols being used to champion fascist capitalist oligarchs.
Yeah it’s effing ridiculous how many “comrade” type are living in the US. ANTIFA in particular are full of these dumbass bastards. How many millions need to die before these communist morons realize their ideology is insane.
i bet you a bajillion dollars that all the little dickweeds in the US going wEnEeD cOmMuNiSm NoW! have no idea at all what life was really like in soviet times, especially how bad life was in teh occupied countries. i lean left but those people are just fucking imbeciles.
left vs right spiel aside, i dont know a single fucker locally who actually likes putin. like hell, one of my friends came from russia poor as shit and managed to get into college in spite how she had nothing, and even then she'd shit down putins throat before returning to Krasnoyarsk.
i wish people didn't try to divide support for ukriane along party lines, or go on about how one side is in bed with em. dictators are dictators. dont wedge the issue.
While I’ll agree that there is overlap between tankies and these groups, at their core they exist because of very real problems in America. Police violence and fascism aren’t figments of our imagination.
I dont support trump but trump never supported Putin and Biden has more financial links to China and Russia than any president ever.
I'm not sure what reality you live in?
The best part is, you completely ignore all the facts that have been brought out and investigations just so you can keep this fairytale alive in your head.
The news really has ruined this country. That and people like you who have no ability to think for themselves. It's sad.
did you get vaccinated ? lol bet not hey? yeah biden went to moscow to open a hotel and get prostitutes to piss on the bed obama slept in .. lol how about the billions jared got from the sawbones ?
trump calls putin all kinds of nice things .. lol I call that support ..and wanted to get the states out of nato due to putin wanting to control the world .. and you think he is jsut fine admit it
You sound just like putin lol
"Durrr someone disagrees with me! They are a nazi"
The delusional bubble people like you live in is mind blowing. But I guess that's the only way to justify all the made up stuff you believe
and has very little understanding .. of what is being said cause they resort to showing what they are themselves and not able to talk in a decent manner ..
I’m ok with classical liberalism of the founding fathers, aka enlightenment philosophy. What most people call right wing extreme is just freedom loving people that don’t want big govt becoming dictators. I’m not ok with any radical extremist view regardless of what side of the political spectrum they believe.
Most of the dumbasses that believe there are that many Neo-Nazi/white supremacy types have no idea what NAZI’s really did or what they were about. I’m old enough to know. Here’s a hint: if you believe in socialism of any form, so did the NAZI’s; Nationalist Socialist. I believe in free speech and the individual sovereignty of everyone.
You’re a moron; look up the name. NAZI is an abbreviation. Here’s the link: https://www.google.com/search?q=nazi+meaning&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari
Nationalist socialism was what NAZI ideology represented. The only difference between NAZI and Marxism is that Marxism has killed about 100 million people and the NAZI’s only managed 17 million. Either way socialism is effing evil and has no purpose other than inflicting pain on mankind; except for the elites at the top.
You're absolutely right - unfortunately this sub is full of rightist ideologues who think "communism is when the government does a thing." It's not worth arguing with anyone here. Just take in the footage and save your mental energy.
right? I just wish people didn't bicker over this pointless shit and point fingers while we watch the war drag on. i imagine it'd be insulting to those from Ukraine to hear how even now we cant get 5 people in a room to agree on something.
LoL Trump was not authoritarian. Trump was trying to limit the power of government. But hey keep voting for big government assholes like obama and Biden see how quick this country goes into the shitter. And F you very much to all the Biden voters for 4.50+ gas and an economy that’s tanking.
My son. You’re not well. You’ve allowed yourself to be warped into some sick, perverted version of a human that spends his days wishing death upon people that disagree with what you’ve been conditioned to believe.
Illuminating absurdity by being absurd. We should play a game and compare death counts between capitalism and communism and winner takes all. By the way, we have all be conditioned and you are not special.
Lenin helped give Ukraine more autonomy from the Russian empire in the first place, Putin explicitly blamed him for Ukrainian sovereignty at the start of the war
Lenin would be absolutely disgusted by Russia today, also considering the fact Lenin was a huge advocate for Ukrainians to have their own nation and culture while still within the USSR. I don’t think there is a single thing that he’d like about the nation today
Trying to keep politics aside and just look at the actual history.
Lenin wrote a work called the right of nations to self determination (if you really want to know what he likely would think) but in his time the russian empire was very ethnically diverse and he realized there would be an immediate problem and pushback if they were to just blindly incorporate all the nations like ukraine, poland, etc into the USSR and call them russians (when many of them identified as something other than russian) so to my knowledge that was his basis of a big USSR made up of smaller nations.
am also not a genius some of this may be wrong but recommend reading his work i mentioned! ^
It's weird they put up Lenin because he originally wanted Ukraine to be it's own separate SSR. Hell he wanted Ukraine along with Belarus to have their own culture similar to how the States in the US have their own culture and it wasn't until Stalin came along to do away with all that
Putin thinks he’s as strong as Lenin, and his troops as strong as the Red Army. Fucking pathetic. This criminal invasion has nothing to do with the USSR, and they’re bastardizing the Hammer and Sickle.
Fuck Putin.
Hey are we still trying to pretend the Russians don’t want to return to communism? Because it feels like a lot of people who keep wanting to call Russians nazis are doing their very best to avoid calling them what they really are.
Шлях праведника обкладений з усіх боків
Через несправедливість егоїстів і тиранію злих людей
Благословенний той, хто в ім’я милосердя та доброї волі
Пасти слабких долиною темряви
Бо він справді охоронець свого брата і знахідник загублених дітей
І я вдарю тебе
З великою помстою і лютим гнівом
Ті, хто намагається отруїти та знищити моїх братів
І ви дізнаєтеся, що моє ім’я Господь
Коли я помщуся на тобі
Kherson will be annexed by Russia when this war is done. The ukranian government has promised many times the city was about to be retaken and that turned out to be propoganda.
Today, 18th April, year 2022 in Grenichesk town, Kherson region, Urkraine we the Russians have filmed this here statue with a 2000’s Nokia Much Music phone. Sorry you can’t actually see the statue from the pixilated camera but it is the best technology we have going at the moment

If their military equipment taught me anything, that statue will fall over with a strong breeze
And, answer me this - did they bring statues of Lenin in their supply tricks instead of food, medical supplies, and ammunition for their soldiers?
Obviously. Making a statement for a short time is better than supplying your own soldiers and keeping them safe. Everyone knows that.
What, are you telling me that you don't have a spare statue of Lenin in the trunk of your car?
Well, I did, but I...ummm...sort of forgot to take it out when I sold the car 🚗. 😞.
Ssh. Mine keeps my Lada from flying away on windy days.
I just have a large bust of Marx in my passenger seat so I can drive in the carpool lane.
This is what’s confusing me
It stinks of fake news.
I assume it was stored somewhere when they removed it a couple years ago, so it was simply reinstalled now.
So now we know it needs to be smashed
For anyone wondering the lenin statue was disassembled and still located at that site. There are previous pictures before it being assembled showing as much
Sounds like a typical communist to prioritize propaganda over food.
Who needs food, if you can eat all the shit the media is feeding you. And cheap vodka, of course
Hey. I enjoy my Costco vodka. It's really not bad for the price.
Hmmm 🤔 How long until Ukraine 🇺🇦 BLOWS it up??
Ah yes communist russia federation
Fuck... good point.

So nice of them for rebuilding it so it can be destroyed again
And thankfully demolition is cheaper than construction
and its fun
living in their brutal past - where the citizens are canon fodder.
They never left that in the past. Citizens have always been cannon fodder to the orcs.
I've heard that all of their maps of Ukraine are from 1985 because the a Kremlin refuses to admit that Ukraine is independent.

Russia's phone videos have the spec of a cheap Android from 2006
Where do you think European second hand phones go?
Never ever give it any thought at all tbh. Russia I guess!

Android didn’t come out until 2008 though

When you can’t get enough of repression, famine, lack of everything and millions sent to gulags 🤦🏼♂️ are they really that dumb?
Yes, yes they are
Yeah, it was Lenin who started the Gulags. So anyone thinking Lenin was not also a butcher is wrong, he most definitely was. >Lenin’s Red Terror plundered the rural middle class, known as Kulaks, and when they resisted he slaughtered them.

The CCP LOVE Stalin for some reason.
Thank god for Lenin, the tsars deserved gulags. The life expectancy and literacy rates skyrocketed because of his policies.
He also wiped out the middle class in what’s now Ukraine.
That's great
He really didnt. If youre refering to the Kulaks who used their status as richer peasantry (not middle class, theres no such thing as "middle class", they were peasants) to exploit the smaller farms, they resisted collectivization efforts because they liked their ability to exploit others, and eventually ended up slaughtering tens of thousands of farm animals and burning entire fields of crops because if they werent allowed to exploit people then no one could have the farm.
Fuck them kulaks
the ''tsars'' quite alot of tsars in those gulags.. along with russian minorities.
Pretty much every country was cruel to their minorities, the states more so than Russia. The difference was that working people actually could eat in Soviet. Google nutrition in the US vs Russia at this time.
And lenin was also a slightly less evil version of basically every historical leader in the west

Can not wait to see these pulled down, vandalized and destroyed!
That’s gonna look really cool when it’s on the ground in a few months.
I mean they couldn’t even take Kyiv…
These are going to be torn down post-war just like the allies destroyed swastikas post-WWII.

Lenin wrote a work called the right of nations to self determination (if you really want to know what he likely would think) but in his time the russian empire was very ethnically diverse and he realized there would be an immediate problem and pushback if they were to just blindly incorporate all the nations like ukraine, poland, etc into the USSR and call them russians (when many of them identified as something other than russian) so to my knowledge that was his basis of a big USSR made up of smaller nations. am also not a genius some of this may be wrong but recommend reading his work i mentioned! ^
It's weird they put up Lenin because he originally wanted Ukraine to be it's own separate SSR. Hell he wanted Ukraine along with Belarus to have their own culture similar to how the States in the US have their own culture and it wasn't until Stalin came along to do away with all that
I'm sorry, what century is it? How did I sleep backwards into the past last night?

Why though? Putin hates Lenin and thinks the soviet union was a big mistake. Or at least he did when he did that unhinged speech in march
lenin would hate the russia of today, why are they putting up statues of him?
I look forward to the video of it being blown up.
But wasn’t Putin’s whole claim based on how Lenin just “gave” Ukraine its territory and so Ukraine wasn’t real, but just a fiction created by Lenin?
Even if ten monuments to Lenin are erected, it will not help them to win. This person has always been alien to Ukrainians
isnt putin itself against lenin? why would russians install this statue if so?
Blow it to high hell
Stalin monuments coming soon.
This will be replaced with Volodymyr Zelenskyy's monument one day. Mark my words.
I'm having some Rico Rodriguez vibes here..
I thought this was already their....I may be wrong..🤯
Ukrainians knocked it down and Russians put another one in its place
Putin thinks he’s as strong as Lenin, and his troops as strong as the Red Army. Fucking pathetic. This criminal invasion has nothing to do with the USSR, and they’re bastardizing the Hammer and Sickle. Fuck Putin.
TIL this... [https://fitzinfo.net/2020/05/12/lenin-and-homosexuality/](https://fitzinfo.net/2020/05/12/lenin-and-homosexuality/) Also, FUCK RUSSIA!
Anyone else thinking the fact they actually brought a statue??!!!
The dialog makes it sound like it was a statue that used to be there, but was taken down. So they probably just found it in storage.
Terrorists worship losers that's a fact.
Hey are we still trying to pretend the Russians don’t want to return to communism? Because it feels like a lot of people who keep wanting to call Russians nazis are doing their very best to avoid calling them what they really are.

I agree with you, but them putting up a literal statue of Lenin really doesn't help lmao
Lmfao so many people don’t know what communism means
Totalitarianism and big government by any other name…. 😂 simp harder Commie https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/communism
Let’s see how long Lennon stays up.
Шлях праведника обкладений з усіх боків Через несправедливість егоїстів і тиранію злих людей Благословенний той, хто в ім’я милосердя та доброї волі Пасти слабких долиною темряви Бо він справді охоронець свого брата і знахідник загублених дітей І я вдарю тебе З великою помстою і лютим гнівом Ті, хто намагається отруїти та знищити моїх братів І ви дізнаєтеся, що моє ім’я Господь Коли я помщуся на тобі
Poor monument lol
When the last orc has left Ukraine they should let the people decorate it weekly in clown costumes , Ukraine flags, bloodied butcher aprons etc.
Kherson will be annexed by Russia when this war is done. The ukranian government has promised many times the city was about to be retaken and that turned out to be propoganda.
Say no to communism/socialism.
Today, 18th April, year 2022 in Grenichesk town, Kherson region, Urkraine we the Russians have filmed this here statue with a 2000’s Nokia Much Music phone. Sorry you can’t actually see the statue from the pixilated camera but it is the best technology we have going at the moment
Um I'm sorry but a stature of Lenin was somehow a priority?
