Western propaganda would not have been convincing if the system of the USSR had worked better or at least had had better counter-propaganda.
Unfortunately, the Soviet Union was so focused on being a global superpower that it lost at home.
It was all the western propaganda from the radio's fault, the grocery stores were full.
LOL. That was the USSR of comprador Gorbachev who engineered the collapse of the country. The USSR that I left
during the mid 1970s had shops full of food. People bitched about being on waiting lists for apartments for 10 years
because they had no clue how much accommodations cost in the west. The analogue in Canada is waiting for
subsidized housing. I know one person who has been waiting for 13 years.
NATO propaganda is always NATO propaganda.

Groceries were never full as far as my memory goes. It even goes before Gorbachev. Usually it took 30 mins to wait. Old people where usually sent to do shoping as they had nothing to do:D My grandfather used to spend 8 hours shopping for us.
There were komision shops too. You could legally buy foreign goods there, but their prices where crazy. Ofc Russians who came to LTSR used to say that it's zagranica here and were suprised to see doktorskaya sausages lol. I've heard that more remote places of SU(300km east from Moscow) were constantly on deficit.
There was a golden era ofcourse, but meh, stagnation began.
Even after degradation of social services I would say today life in Russia is better than it was in Soviet Union.
It's more dynamic and atleast there is no stagnation. You would hardly put new generation back into communism too.

One notices how the bastards (in Kiev and US axis) swiftly "corrected" themselves, when the threats against the gay march were issues they named Right Sektor by name, but when the march was attacked it was by "unknowns", now we have "unknown" protesters attacked by "unknown" assailants- hell they don't even say they were attacked.
How can not one boil with anger, feel like throwing any principles out the window and wish the worst and most painful fate to the Kiev scumbags, their fascist goons and their puppeteers?

Yeah the issue with those pictures is that they don't mean that there wasn't food, it means the distribution system was on its head, typically because there wasn't a demand and supply process governed by demand and supply but an artificial demand and supply equation.
However, for the same of the matter, let's go on a paradoxal fight:
See how those pictures have an absurd meaning...
Here a momument at capitalist glory, Homeless guy, enjoying not one but two bottles of Lanson Brut, a champagne circa 1989. What can you ask more, even the HOMELESS can drink the finest, while stoopid socialists don't have food huehueheuhueheu.
Normally one can ask oneself, why is he homeless in the first place, but that would be socialist.
I have also posted a recollection of Soviet Middle class vs Western middle class and one sees that "poverty" and "limitations" don't have the same meaning, at all, depending on how the human being is conceived and educated. Which is the case today as well, spending 300 USD on telephone bills, not having enough food for the kids in the same sentence, a staple of consumerist parlay...The funny part is that the End of History, aka the failure of the (socio-economic) alternative didn't brought us, neither peace, nor stability. It brought only more insecurity. People just start to understand what the real price is for full shelves on your grocery store.

There must be a point in the near future where enough people will be fed up and then we will see a new Maidan. We might witness the creation of a true European Somalia. A country that has collapsed and unwanted by Russia or Europe. Ukraine will be left with hating Russia for taking back Crimea and denying the Donbass, and Ukraine will hate the West for their unkept promises. The country will be left with barely any wealth or security. Europe will be denied Ukraine, and more migrants will come to Russia which will empower Russia.
Not Russia's problem really.
Russia was tempted by the West but was never tempted to kill Ukrainians for that goal.
Ukrainians are willing to do anything it seems.

Not enough local support yet, again, if the Ukrainian people are anything like their Russian brothers, they will be able to wait for quite some time before we see popular uprising against Porky. Probably better off waiting for the NAF to roll through and watch them exact the already long overdue punishment on Porky and his entourage. Or watch the VVS bring the level of devastation to the Maidan square that Donetsk, Lugansk, or any inhabited point that Kiev brought war to in the East has witnessed. Kinda a shame it won't happen in the near/foreseeable future though, ain't it?Regular wrote:Lets just wait when people from front will go to square to protest... With AK-74.

Of course there and we know who they are... seriously i never stop being amazed on how surprised people can be that the known enemies of russia wanted russia to balkanize, it is all about worlds richest country, worlds biggest resources and never about anything political. The goal is total world domination and world domination only goes via Resources, they want russia gone because they don't want russia to be capitalistic. That is why the West advocated communism to be brought to Russia, so the russian resources stayed untouched for most part that of course would not be the case when Russia would become a capitalist country instead of a socialistic country "communistic". The americans did not want that russians would waste their resources like US had depleted its own.

Heartful and mindful people keep Soviet memory in a high position but they do not want the old Soviet model to come back, either. After all the model of USSR had been gone wrong for many reason and became further and further from the vision of Marx and Lenin.
The 1991 event caused extreme chaos and a chance for pro-West 5th columnists to rampage in the SNG. But it also wipe out the military dictatorship created by the unholy duo of military general and corrupted Party officers, paved the way for technocrats/industrial leader to bounce back - given the case if there was a competent leader who could make full use of that way.

Actually let put that one to rest. "Fifth columnists" were only power-hungry, ammoral people like the bulk of those you see wielding power in the corporate world today. There was no grand scheme to bring the USSR down the way it did, because that paved the way for the current row. The plan probably was to totally dismember the USSR, Ottoman style and deal with each statelet once at a time. A kind of grind and bind, in the same way the EU absorbed the eastern european states and put various leashes on it. That's what nationalism has always been used for, and that's what's not clicking in Ukraine.
Ukraine's is in the gutter, but not because it wasn't Nationalist enough, but that its Nationalism was schizophrenic.
1. Hang the Moskal, yes but not to tight, you need their visa-free regime to made some quik buck.
2. Put the Moskal on the Knife, but not to sharp of a knife, you need the Moskal to buy shit from your deadbeat industries.
3. Burn the Moskal, but only blue, because you need Moskal's gas.
4. Kill the Moskal, but only with words, because the Moskal needs to subsidize your banking sector.
So yeah Moskal this and that...

Russian-backed militant forces in the east of Ukraine now have the same quantity of troops and weapons as the average European country, Ukrainian Defense Minister Stepan Poltorak said in Kyiv on Monday at a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Inter-Parliamentary Council, according to an UNIAN correspondent.
OK, so what is the definition of an "average European country" ? That "average" is as big as 50% of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts ? "average" means small countries like Denmark, Belgium, Holland ?
Yeah yeah yeah, because of Russia, Russia again, everything is because of Russia, Porkie get a stomachache or a headache is also because of Russia...

06.08.155:18 AM ET Anna Nemtsova
The daily diet of the Kremlin’s ‘weaponized propaganda’ is not all lies—and it’s heating up Russians’ outrage over the war in Ukraine and the West’s role.
MOSCOW — A recent survey by Russia’s Public Opinion Research Center found that 60 percent of the Russian population gets its news from television and 75 percent trust what they see there.
Well, here’s what they’ve been watching.
Last Thursday every news program on Russian television aired video of wounded, bleeding women and men on stretchers at Donetsk hospital, and images of a destroyed city market set on fire by artillery during one of the fiercest battles in Ukraine in months. The shelling of Donetsk region intensified, and Russians could see many ruined private homes under fire. News presenters blamed the Ukrainian military for creating over 50 “provocations” endangering the ceasefire along the entire front line in Eastern Ukraine. It blamed Kiev’s leadership for breaking the Minsk agreement from last February, and it blamed the West for backing Ukraine.
Thursday’s news reports covered clashes the day before in the fight for control over a town called Maryinka (also, Marinka), right outside the regional capital of Donetsk, that involved heavy artillery and tanks. Over 20 people were killed and at least 100 were injured in separatist-held towns, the reports said. The Ukrainian military deliberately chose sunset to shell the thickly populated town of Horlivka, Channel-5 reported. Vesti, a news program on the popular Russia-24 channel, quoted separatist Deputy Defense Minister Eduard Basurin insisting that Kiev plotted the attack on purpose. He claimed the Ukrainian military wanted to have a small victory to show before Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko addressed the Rada, or parliament. But “Kiev failed,” said Basurin. And the majority of Russians believed it.
Day after day, Russian television viewers discuss horror stories from Ukraine. After a short and largely quiet break, clashes have intensified on the front lines, and as they’ve grown increasingly violent, outrage against Ukraine’s military and its leadership have been heated up by the anti-Kiev and anti-West news coverage.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is pushing a proposal that would see the self-proclaimed republics of Luhansk and Donetsk remain under Ukrainian control. Leaders in the disputed regions have said they might be open to the idea provided conditions of the failing ceasefire are met by Ukraine.
"This is a fundamental issue. I think this position should be viewed as a sound precondition for the start of substantial negotiations," said Putin, according to a transcript of the interview published by Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera and released by the Kremlin.
While EU and NATO officials suspect the Russian military is helping the rebels in their fight against Ukrainian troops in East Ukraine, Putin has resisted calls to annex both regions as he did with Crimea in March 2014. The cost of rebuilding the region and assimilating the millions of civilians living there, it is thought, is the reason it will not happen. In addition, Russia's economy has suffered badly since EU-led sanctions were put in place against it last year.
Europe would also like to see the sanctions lifted as Russia is considered one of its biggest trade partners, but that can only happen if Russia withdraws its troops and weaponry from Ukraine, and meets the full conditions of the Minsk II agreement that was signed in February. Putin has also expressed a desire to normalize ties between Europe and Russia, as well as seeing an end to fighting in the region.
"The key aspect of the political settlement was to create conditions for this joint work, but it was essential to stop the hostilities, to pull back heavy weaponry. On the whole, this has been done. Unfortunately, there is still shooting occasionally and there are casualties, but there are no large‑scale hostilities. The sides have been separated. It is time to begin implementing the Minsk agreements," he said.
However, the group charged with overseeing the conflict, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, said earlier this week it witnessed some of the most intense fighting since the ceasefire agreement was signed. The Ukrainian military reported 14 soldiers were killed and dozens injured in battles near the de facto rebel capital of Donetsk.
Fighting continued Saturday with the Ukrainian military reporting increased use of Grad rockets, which are supposed to be banned under the ceasefire agreement. Continue reading.

Russian-backed militant forces in the east of Ukraine now have the same quantity of troops and weapons as the average European country, Ukrainian Defense Minister Stepan Poltorak said in Kyiv on Monday at a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Inter-Parliamentary Council, according to an UNIAN correspondent.
OK, so what is the definition of an "average European country" ? That "average" is as big as 50% of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts ? "average" means small countries like Denmark, Belgium, Holland ?
Russia continues to be the main organizer and sponsor of the armed conflict in the east of Ukraine. Moreover, he said Moscow was continuing to supply weapons and train the armed groups.
Yeah yeah yeah, because of Russia, Russia again, everything is because of Russia, Porkie get a stomachache or a headache is also because of Russia...
