Tell me one thing they accomplished other than being laughed at

go back to worldstar

says the namefag

>being laughed at

Yeah, so much that United States literally funded every faggot on the Earth, including, by the way, radical muslims - the ones that now drive trucks of peace across Europe, to take it down.

If they were so laughable, why the fuck US were scared so much of them? To the point of traumatizing their kids with duck and cover and making Stephen King shit himself over the sputnik?

tankie detected

Looking back on it i really dont know why the US was afraid of them either, western GDP was easily 5-6x larger than soviet gdp

Because they were a good boogey man while it lasted. Now we have "radical islamic terror"

Because they stole the secrets to nuclear weapons and developed them then threatened to use it against the United States and China.

They also gave nukes to China. I would be scared too, the Soviets were literal bad guys.

>Yeah, so much that United States literally funded every faggot on the Earth, including, by the way, radical muslims - the ones that now drive trucks of peace across Europe, to take it down.

But wasn't glorious socialist planning supposed to make the Cold War a cakewalk for the USSR?

Defeated by a grocery store

To keep the US war machine funded.

because US bois cant fight for shit and if the USSR decided to crash this planet theyd come on top

>this is what roosters actually believe

For quite some time the USSR economy was growing at a considerably higher rate than the west. There was a fear that if that continues, the West would be fucked. We now know there's a hard cap on how much Soviet style central planning can improve a country, but that's the benefit of hindsight they didn't have.

>a bunch of asiatic barbarian pidors suddenly having access to nukes and modern army
Gee why wouldn't anyone be scares? That's like a monkey having a suicide vest with everyone in the room.

They were fucking great at hockey.

Solved the German problem for ~50 years

>namefag

Uh, Orwell was a socialist...

animal farm book is bullshit by a moneybag serf. Major nobles (French for an example) in old time lived like animals on the farm, and feeling them-selves happy. Also animals on a farm don't work, but humans do work.

This - it's way easier to be dispassionate about the USSR's growth rate this side of 1975 - but there's also the fact that GDP just isn't the only thing that matters when you're talking about a military threat. For most of the Cold War they still had the second largest economy in the world, a very capable military (memes aside), and they were RIGHT FUCKING NEXT to Western Europe, whereas America is across an ocean. I also seem to vaguely recall something about nukes.

"Well, they'll be economically irrelevant in a couple decades" isn't much consolation when they're a credible threat NOW and they're hanging out basically on your doorstep.

fuck me i hate americans so much.

Created the finest tank in the world

squashed Nazi Germany

Won the space race.

1000 years from now text books will remember the name Yuri Gagarin

That speaks poorly about your education.
Even beyond
>American
>Education
meme.

He's joking. Le American edukashun meme.

>Yeltsin
>Not Capitalist

they had a larger nuclear arsenal and military. not sure if you're aware how the korean war went for america but it was a brutal bloody stalemate. and vietnam. manpower trumps technology.

They got the first man, first woman, first animal, first satellite, and first space station into space. The Soviets were also the first to land a space craft on another planet (Venus). The Soviets managed to turn around the largest orchestrated invasion in military history. The USSR was the single biggest contributor to the defeat of the Axis powers, and if you can thank any nation for not allowing the swastika and fasces to be ruling over Europe today, it's the Soviets. Economically, the Soviets caught up with the Americans and for brief amounts of time even surpassed them. By the mid 1960's the Soviet standards of living were virtually the same as the US, and by the 1970's the the average Soviet caloric intake was identical to the US (and later surpassed it). The USSR managed to achieve the largest nuclear stockpile of any nation on Earth. And easily had one of the most advanced and largest military on the planet.

All of this when just in the 1920's the USSR was an agrarian shithole full of civil war, invasion, and tuberculosis outbreaks. Considering their starting position and what they achieved, it's safe to say the USSR was the most successful expirement of the 20th century.

>tell me one thing they accomplished other than being laughed at
this. the only thing sexier than two blondes going down on each other simultaneously is pic related

>They stole my fire and gave it to the People, so I had to punish them

Soviet state confirmed as Prometheus, America confirmed as crybaby gods.

>Because they stole the secrets to nuclear weapons
That was the fastest way to get nukes.

>2 rubels have been deposited into your account

eww not even the right version

do your fucking homework, user. Yeltsin was cappy

Also were instrumental in the world wide decline of Imperialism.

>the average Soviet caloric intake was identical to the US (and later surpassed it)
Dude that's not hard.

I'm Russian and our food is fatty as fuck. We eat literally the amount a lumberjack in the West would consume since childhood. Salo: pure fat. Pelmeni: meat in dough. Chebureki: meat in dough. Shashliki: grilled meat. I guess you can blame the freezing weather for that and our past of hard physical labor.

The first thing I noticed about Europeans is that they eat like fucking women. Americans would feel right at home with our cuisine.

killing the most intelligent and talented members of their own population for two generations

although Pol Pot managed to take it even further

>Afghanistan

Ruined the reputation of Marx forever despite not even doing things that Marx would've approved of.

>The main man who put soviets in space, Korolev, was literally imprisoned in Gulag for most stupidest shit ever and almost died from scurvy, barely managing to survive without his teeth

>/leftypol/ loves to save images of materialist Thots with tattoos who have soviet flag in their room.
How can /leftypol/tards be even more pathetic then /pol/trads? I thought it couldn't be achievable.
