Now all Russia has to do is go socialist.
Again begging for this to happen it would be the best thing in history
Greatest comeback in history. It’d reshape world geopolitics forever.
It would be the defining moment of the 21st century, besides the fall of the USA inshallah
Suddenly the fall of the USA would be remembered by historians as the leadup to this event. Or vice versa.
Bah gawd, is that the USSR’s music?!?!
Lmao. Lenin’s display begins wheeling itself down the entryway with the international blasting in the area.
I feel like they’d still be weaker than China but stronger than the EU.
“In a strange turn of events, the US is funds Russian opposition parties against Putin. Putin is removed from power, but the main opposition party is the KPRF, the others are too weak and deorganized to oppose them. Gennady Zyuganov becomes head of state and allies Russia with China.”
It will never happen, because the KPRF is mostly pro-Putin nowadays.
Zyuganov had a real chance in 1996, but of course
propped up that garbage pile Yeltsin.New leadership or an ‘unexpected’ purge is always on the table
It’s not going to happen until after the US balkanizes, at least.
Inshallah
Inshallah
Русския пожалуйста, СССР вернись
Including ideology?..
We can only hope that close relationships with China, DPRK, Cuba, and Vietnam help Russia find its way back to the light.
I will forever be shameless in my need for a Soveit (re)Union
can’t wait for the Soviet Well Overdue Reunion
Operation Sword: Soviet Well Overdue Reunion Drive.
Same tbh
I wake up every day very saddened that it has not happened yet.
Don’t get your hopes up
I’m not expecting much in the near future, but I think it’s sort of inevitable over the long run. China is going to have a huge amount of influence on Russia and it will necessarily affect how people view communism.
As “foreign stuff imposed on our holy land by the ebil slant-eyes”? Maybe, yeah. Don’t forget - there are people repeating the “Lenin was a German spy” bs even now
And who believes that, though? And “ebil slant-eyes” racism or not, the material conditions speak for themselves. The prosperity seen in China today is something that can and should appeal to anyone regardless of ideology, or even racism/etc.
It’s not just racism. “China will steal our Siberia” has been a boogeyman/talking point in Russia for as long as I remember - so probably even before the USSR collapse.
And you’re right. Material conditions matter. So what do the people see? They see China that is growing richer and more powerful with every passing day, while their own conditions worsen. Do you expect the reasoning to be “we should do what they do”, or will it be “they’re leeching off our wealth and grow fat off our blood”? You know, like Europe was doing for thirty years.
It honestly might just be due to racism (and other phobias). Far right parties are able to get people to vote against their own interests by centring “the other” as the issue rather than the system; the white working class (not all of them, of course) are ensnared in this trap, their racism used as an advantage. These parties use that racism to cloud the real problems and convince the white worker to blame non-white people as the origin of the economic disaster they are facing. It is not the system, but the people in the system. Other minorities (gender and sexuality) are used in this way as well. It is very hard to understand this view but it happens, some people will not come out of it until they see the problems persisting even after every minority is gone.

…what? That’s a thing?
Ayup. Welcome to the madness. The gist of the idea is usually “Lenin was a German spy, sent to destabilise Russia, collapse it and make it lose the war”. That’s because multiple territories had seceded from the now former Russian Empire (i.e. Poland, Finland), and some territories were given up as part of the Brest-Litovsk treaty (look up the terms of it, if you ever get tired of hearing how Germany was “humiliated” by Versailles treaty).
I never heard of the Brest-Litovsk treaty (in school we only learned about the treaty of Versailles) and, my god, they paid the Germans 300 million??? And so much territory lost too…
USSR exported revolution, China exports reform, lol.
Ha
uncritical support for the DPRK in its heroic struggle to liberate occupied Korea from the genocidal American empire
Countries with land border have close relationship. This is why you need to be worried:
ukraine nationalists enter the chat
They really do hate everyone they border with.
it’s what happens when you internalize advanced race theory.
Juche Russia Juche Russia Juche Russia
(Needlessly sexy wink) “In ALL areas.”
My delusional ass: We can change him!
