Daily reminder that the USSR was run by patriotic technocrats who simply sought out Russian interest while the USA was run by internationalist megacorps and Intelligence agencies who sought world conquest.
Yet the USSR is the "bad guys" because their state atheism was more honest than the West's state atheism.
sucks to suck vladmir, Go back to standing in your breadline
because invading Afghanistan was in the best interest of the union
Yes, purging the kuluks via throat cutting and brainbullets and killing many millions of people through starvation and famine was for the good of the people.
Daily reminder that technocrats fuck everything up by overcentralizing the economy. Stalin's business model was "invite western mega corps to invest in resource extraction, jack up the cost of doing business so that these plants fall into trouble, and use that as a pretext to nationalize that industry and run the people who created it out of town.
Once their economy was finished industrializing growth dropped to essentially zero, and the brittle Soviet economy simply lacked dynamism and robustness and could no longer compete with the west.
And they were the "bad guys" because they were a bunch of STEMspergs sending people who disagreed with them to forced labor camps if they weren't murdered outright.

>Daily reminder that the USSR was run by patriotic technocrats who simply sought out Russian interest
Literally every country acts for the interest of their own people.
Not every country kulaks everyone accused of thoughtcrime though
A lot of good goys in this thread, fall of USSR let western globalists run everything unopposed.
ad hominem
irrelevant. they sought Russian interest, it doesn't mean they were always right.
That stopped after Stalin
Perhaps. It doesn't make it worse than capitalism except from an economic stance.
>USSR
>Patriotism
Patriotism is forbidden. The revolution is for the whole world. To the gulag you go!
>implying you wouldn't get thrown in the gulags for espousing Trotskyist world revolution.
Maybe that was the plan all along. The gulag is the ideal place for all workers to unite together. In dying.
There was more to the USSR than just the 1930s you know.
So? It failed nonetheless, and spectacularly so. What's your point?
Everything about domestic USSR post-1945 is honestly boring af tho
The breakup of the USSR is when things get interesting again, at least from my myopic American perspective
>Cold War and Space Race isn't interesting
Pleb
France is the greatest enemy of Slavs
Yugoslavia, best contry ever! But nationalists and western powers fucked up.
Patriots indeed... they love their country so much they sold themselves to a genocidal maniac that despised everything bar (((bolshevism)))
Stalin was far worse than the fucking Germans or the US could ever be
>totalitarian state that terorize its citizens is the good guys
oh the contrarianism
You know what in the end it didn’t matter, Colossus and Guardian were created at the same time and now we live under the fascist rule and constant threat of nuclear holocaust from AI who somehow run on vacuum tubes and magnetic tapes!
Why would the system matter when the end result is the same?
>belives in Western propangada
After Stalin that largly stopped.
This. Non-aligned were the only "good guys" of the Cold War
>STEMspergs sending people who disagreed with them to forced labor camps
Actually sounds pretty good desu
No, that's G*rmany or other Sl*vs
Historically Germans were the biggest natural allies of Slavs (with the exception of P*les) pretty much until the Berlin Congress.
>After Stalin that largly stopped.
No it didnt.
Yah your right. Your average soviet citizen of the 1970s had to face up to 5 gulag imprisonments a day.
>STEMspergs sending people who disagreed with them to forced labor camps if they weren't murdered outright.
the only righteous form of government imho
being enslaved on the kolkhozy with no travel rights is imprisonment enough
>inb4 apartheid is good when it smashes capitalism guys!!!
socialists are all the same, justifies of chaos, slavery, and destruction if only it benefits their muh ideals. begone to the dustbin where you belong.
>travel rights
Stay spooked comrad.
I see in my country people who don't travel anywhere and don't work. They'd be better off tied to some plot of land farming.
This is a lie.
It isn't cake.
>Russian interest
