“We were lucky that our childhood and youth ended before the government bought FREEDOM from the youth in exchange for roller skates, mobile phones, star factories and cool crackers (by the way, for some reason soft)... With her own general consent... For her own (seemingly) good..." - this is a fragment from the text entitled "Generation 76-82". Those who are now somewhere around thirty are eagerly reprinting it on the pages of their online diaries. It became a kind of manifesto for a generation.

The attitude towards life in the USSR changed from sharply negative to sharply positive. Recently, a lot of resources dedicated to everyday life in the Soviet Union have appeared on the Internet.

Incredible but true: the sidewalk has an asphalt ramp for strollers. Even now you rarely see this in Moscow


At that time (as far as one can judge from photographs and films) all girls wore knee-length skirts. And there were practically no perverts. Amazing thing.

The bus stop sign is great. And the trolleybus pictogram is the same in St. Petersburg today. There was also a tram sign with the letter “T” in a circle.

The consumption of various branded drinks was growing all over the world, but we had everything out of the boiler. This, by the way, is not so bad. And, most likely, humanity will come to this again. All foreign ultra-left and green movements would be happy to know that in the USSR you had to go and buy sour cream with your own jar. You could return any jar, the sausage was wrapped in paper, and you went to the store with your own string bag. The most progressive supermarkets in the world today offer a choice at the checkout between a paper or plastic bag. The most environmentally responsible classes return the clay yogurt pot to the store.

And before there was no habit of selling containers with the product at all.

Kharkov, 1924. Tea room. He drank and left. No bottled Lipton.


Moscow, 1959. Khrushchev and Nixon (then vice president) at the Pepsi stand at the American National Exhibition in Sokolniki. On the same day, the famous argument took place in the kitchen. In America this dispute received wide coverage, but not here. Nixon talked about how cool it was to have a dishwasher, how many goods there were in supermarkets.

All this was filmed on color videotape (super technology at that time). It is believed that Nixon performed so well at this meeting that it helped him become one of the presidential candidates the following year (and 10 years later, the president).

In the 60s there was a terrible fashion for any type of machine gun. The whole world then dreamed of robots, we dreamed of automatic trading. The idea, in a sense, failed due to the fact that it did not take into account Soviet reality. For example, when a potato vending machine gives you rotten potatoes, no one wants to use it. Still, when you have the opportunity to rummage through an earthy container and find several relatively strong vegetables, there is not only hope for a tasty lunch, but also training in fighting qualities. The only vending machines that survived were those that dispensed a product of the same quality - selling soda. Sometimes there were also vending machines selling sunflower oil. Only the soda survived.

1961st. VDNH. Still, before the start of the fight against excesses, we were not at all behind the West in graphic and aesthetic development.

In 1972, the Pepsi company agreed with the Soviet government that Pepsi would be bottled “from concentrate and using Pepsico technology,” and in return the USSR would be able to export Stolichnaya vodka.

1974 Some kind of boarding house for foreigners. Globe polka dots at top right. I still have a jar like this, unopened, and I keep thinking: will it explode or not? Just in case, I keep it wrapped in a bag away from books. It’s also scary to open - what if I suffocate?

On the very right edge next to the scales you can see a cone for selling juice. Empty, really. There was no habit in the USSR of drinking juices from the refrigerator; no one was showing off. The saleswoman opened a three-liter jar and poured it into a cone. And from there - by glass. As a child, I found such cones in our vegetable shop on Shokalsky Passage. When I was drinking my favorite apple juice from such a cone, some thief stole my Kama bicycle from the store's dressing room, I will never forget.

1982. Selection of alcohol in the dining car of the Trans-Siberian train. For some reason, many foreigners have a fixed idea - to travel along the Trans-Siberian Railway. Apparently, the thought of not getting off a moving train for a week seems magical to them.

Please note that the abundance is apparent. No exquisite dry red wines, of which today even in an ordinary tent there are at least 50 types sold. No XO or VSOP. However, even ten years after this photograph was taken, the author was quite satisfied with Agdam port wine.


1983. The worm of consumerism has settled in the naive and pure souls of Russians. True, the bottle, young man, must be returned to whom it was told. Drink, enjoy the warm drink, return the container. They will take her back to the factory.


The stores usually had “Buratino” or “Bell” on sale. “Baikal” or “Tarragon” were also not always sold. And when Pepsi was displayed in some supermarket, it was taken as a reserve - for a birthday, for example, to be displayed later.

1987 An aunt sells greens in the window of a dairy store. Cashiers are visible behind the glass. The ones you had to come to well prepared - know all the prices, quantity of goods and department numbers.


1987 Volgograd. In the American archive, this photo is accompanied by the commentary of the century: “A woman on a street in Volgograd sells some sort of liquid for the invalids of the Great Patriotic War (the Soviet name for World War II).” Apparently, it was then in 1987 that the inscription on the barrel was translated, when there was no one else to ask, that WWII disabled people were served out of turn. By the way, these inscriptions are the only documentary recognition that there are queues in the USSR.


By the way, in those days there was no struggle between merchandisers, there were no POS materials, no one hung wobblers on the shelves. No one would even think of giving out free samples. If a store gave out a beach ball with the Pepsi logo, he considered it an honor. And he put it in the window sincerely and for free.

1990 Pepsi vending machine in the subway. A rare specimen. The vending machines on the right were found everywhere in the center - they sold the newspapers Pravda, Izvestia, and Moskovskie Novosti. By the way, all soda machines (and gaming machines too) always had the inscription “Please! Do not omit commemorative and bent coins.” It’s clear with the bent ones, but the anniversary coins cannot be omitted, because they differed from other coins of the same denomination in weight and sometimes in size.


1991. A veteran drinks soda with syrup. On the middle machine, someone had already scratched the Depeche Fashion logo. Glasses were always shared. You go over, wash it in the machine itself, and then place it under the nozzle. Disgusting aesthetes carried folding glasses with them, which had the peculiarity of folding during the process. The good thing about the photo is that all the details are characteristic and recognizable. And a payphone booth, and a Zaporozhets headlight.


Until 1991, American photographers followed the same routes. Almost every photograph can be identified - this is on Tverskaya, this is on Herzen, this is near the Bolshoi Theater, this is from the Moscow Hotel. And then everything became possible.

Recent history.

1992. Near Kyiv. This is no longer the USSR, it just had to be said. A dude poses for an American photographer, voting with a bottle of vodka to exchange it for gasoline. It seems to me that the bottles were given out by the photographer himself. However, a bottle of vodka has long been a kind of currency. But in the mid-nineties, all plumbers suddenly stopped accepting bottles as payment, because there were no fools left - vodka is sold everywhere, and it is known how much it costs. So everyone switched to money. Today the bottle is given only to doctors and teachers, and even then with cognac.


Things were pretty bad with food in the late USSR. The chance of buying something tasty in a regular store was close to zero. There were queues for the delicious food. Delicious things could be given “to order” - there was a whole system of “order tables”, which were actually centers for the distribution of goods for their own. At the order table I could count on something tasty: a veteran (moderately), a writer (not bad), a party worker (also not bad).

Residents of closed cities, in general, by Soviet standards, rolled around like cheese in Christ’s bosom. But in their cities it was very boring and they were restricted from traveling abroad. However, almost everyone was restricted from traveling abroad.

Life was good for those who could be useful in some way. Let's say the director of the Wanda store was a very respected person. Super VIP by recent standards. And the butcher was respected. And the head of the department at Detsky Mir was respected. And even a cashier at the Leningradsky station. They could all “get” something. Getting to know them was called “connections” and “connections.” The grocery director was fairly confident that his children would get into a good university.

1975 Bakery. I felt that the cuts on the loaves were made by hand (now a robot does the sawing).

1975 Sheremetyevo-1. By the way, not much has changed here. In the cafe you could find chocolate, beer, sausages and peas. Sandwiches did not exist; there could be a sandwich, which was a piece of white bread, on one end of which there was a spoon of red caviar, and on the other - one turn of butter, which everyone pushed and trampled with a fork under the caviar as best they could.


There were two types of bread stores. The first one is with a counter. Behind the saleswoman, there were loaves and loaves of bread in containers. The freshness of the bread was determined by questioning those who had already bought the bread or in a dialogue with the saleswoman:

— For 25, a fresh loaf?

- Normal.

Or, if the buyer was not rejected:

- They brought it at night.

The second type of bakery is self-service. Here, loaders rolled containers to special openings, on the other side of which there was a sales area. There were no saleswomen, only cashiers. It was cool because you could poke the bread with your finger. Of course, it was not allowed to paw the bread; for this purpose, special forks or spoons were hung on uneven ropes. There were still spoons here and there, and it was impossible to determine freshness with a fork. Therefore, everyone took the hypocritical device into their hands and carefully turned their finger to check in the usual way how well it was being pressed. It’s completely unclear through a spoon.

Fortunately, there was no individual packaging of bread.

Better a loaf that someone carefully touched with a finger than tasteless gutta-percha. And it was always possible, after checking the softness with your hands, to take a loaf from the far row, which no one had yet reached.

1991. Consumer protection will soon appear, which, together with care, will kill taste. The halves and quarters were prepared from the technical side. Sometimes you could even be persuaded to cut off half of the white:

- Who will buy the second one? - they asked the buyer from the back room.


No one gave any bags at the checkout either - everyone came with their own. Or with a string bag. Or so, he carried it in his hands.

The grandmother has bags of kefir and milk in her hands (1990). There was no Tetrapak then, there was some Elopak. On the package it was written “Elopak. Patented." The blue triangle indicates the side from which the bag should open. When we first purchased the packaging line, it came with a barrel of the correct glue. I found those times when the package opened in the right place without suffering. Then the glue ran out, it was necessary to open it on both sides, and then fold one side back. The blue triangles remained, but no one has bought glue since then, there are few idiots.

By the way, then there was no additional information on the product packaging - neither the address nor the manufacturer’s phone number. GOST only. And there were no brands. Milk was called milk, but varied in fat content. My favorite is in the red bag, five percent.


Dairy products were also sold in bottles. The contents varied according to the color of the foil: milk - silver, acidophilus - blue, kefir - green, fermented baked milk - raspberry, etc.

A joyful queue for eggs. There could still be “Peasant” butter on the refrigerated display case - it was cut with wire, then with a knife into smaller pieces, and immediately wrapped in butter paper. Everyone stands in line with receipts - before that they stood in line at the cash register. The saleswoman had to be told what to give, she looked at the number, counted everything in her head or on the accounts, and if it matched, she gave out the purchase (“released”). The check was threaded onto a needle (on the left side of the counter).

In theory, they were required to sell even one egg. But buying one egg was considered a terrible insult to the saleswoman - she could yell at the buyer in response.

Anyone who took three dozen was given a cardboard pallet without question. Whoever took a dozen was not entitled to a tray; he put everything in a bag (there were also special wire cages for aesthetes).

This is a cool photo (1991), with video rental cassettes visible in the background.


Good meat could be obtained through an acquaintance or bought at the market. But everything at the market was twice as expensive as in the store, so not everyone went there. “Market meat” or “market potatoes” are the highest praise for products.

Soviet chicken was considered to be of poor quality. Hungarian chicken is cool, but it has always been in short supply. The word “cool” was not yet in wide use at that time (that is, it was, but in relation to rocks)

Before 1990, it was impossible to imagine that a foreign photojournalist would be allowed to take pictures in a Soviet store (especially on the other side of the counter). In 1990, everything became possible.

On the street, at the same time, the color of the meat was more natural.

There are two chickens on the counter - imported and Soviet. Import says:

- Look at you, all blue, not plucked, skinny!

“But I died my own death.”


On December 30, 1922, at the First All-Union Congress of Soviets, the formation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was approved.

In December the Union, in July - the government.

The agreement on the formation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was signed on December 29, 1922 at a conference of delegations from the Congresses of Soviets of the RSFSR, Ukrainian SSR, BSSR and ZSFSR and approved by the First All-Union Congress of Soviets. December 30 is considered the official date of the formation of the USSR, although the government of the USSR and the Union ministries were created only in July 1923.

From 4 to 16.



Over the years, the number of union republics within the USSR ranged from 4 to 16, but for the longest time the Soviet Union consisted of 15 republics - the RSFSR, the Ukrainian SSR, the Byelorussian SSR, the Moldavian SSR, the Armenian SSR, the Georgian SSR, the Azerbaijan SSR, the Kazakh SSR, the Uzbek SSR SSR, Kirghiz SSR, Turkmen SSR, Tajik SSR, Latvian SSR, Lithuanian SSR and Estonian SSR.

Three Constitutions in 69 years.



Over the nearly 69 years of its existence, the Soviet Union has replaced three Constitutions, which were adopted in 1924, 1936 and 1977. According to the first, the highest body of state power in the country was the All-Union Congress of Soviets, according to the second, the bicameral Supreme Soviet of the USSR. In the third constitution, initially there was also a bicameral parliament, which, in the 1988 edition, gave way to the Congress of People's Deputies of the USSR.

Kalinin led the USSR the longest.



Legally, the head of state in the Soviet Union in different years was considered the Chairman of the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR, the Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, the Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR and the President of the USSR. Formally, the longest-serving head of the USSR was Mikhail Ivanovich Kalinin, who for 16 years served as Chairman of the Presidium of the USSR Central Executive Committee, and then for eight years was Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR.

The flag was approved later by the Constitution.



The Treaty on the Formation of the USSR stipulated that the new state had its own flag, but no clear description was given of it. In January 1924, the first Constitution of the USSR was approved, but it did not indicate what the flag of the new country looked like. And only in April 1924, the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR approved a scarlet cloth with a red five-pointed star, hammer and sickle as the flag.

In America - stars, in the USSR - slogans.



In 1923, the coat of arms of the Soviet Union was approved - an image of a hammer and sickle against the backdrop of the globe, in the rays of the sun and framed by ears of corn, with the inscription in the languages ​​of the union republics “Workers of all countries, unite!” The number of inscriptions depended on the number of republics within the USSR, just as the number of stars on the US flag depends on the number of states.

Universal anthem.



From 1922 to 1943, the anthem of the Soviet Union was “The Internationale” - a French song with music by Pierre Degeyter and lyrics by Eugene Potier translated by Arkady Kotz. In December 1943, a new national anthem was created and approved with text by Sergei Mikhalkov and Gabriel El-Registan and music by Alexander Alexandrov. Alexandrov's music with modified text by Mikhalkov is currently the anthem of Russia.

The country is the size of a continent.



The Soviet Union occupied an area of ​​22,400,000 square kilometers, being by this indicator the largest country on the planet. The size of the USSR was comparable to the size of North America, including the territories of the USA, Canada and Mexico.

The border is one and a half equators.



The Soviet Union had the longest border in the world, over 60,000 kilometers, and bordered 14 states. It is curious that the length of the border of modern Russia is almost the same - about 60,900 km. At the same time, Russia borders on 18 states - 16 recognized and 2 partially recognized.

The highest point of the Union.



The highest point of the Soviet Union was a mountain in the Tajik SSR with a height of 7495 meters, which in different years was called Stalin Peak and Communism Peak. In 1998, the Tajik authorities gave it a third name - Samani Peak, in honor of the emir who founded the first Tajik state.

A unique capital.



Despite the tradition in the USSR of renaming cities in honor of prominent Soviet figures, this process did not actually affect the capitals of the union republics. The only exception was the capital of the Kirghiz SSR, the city of Frunze, renamed in honor of the Soviet military leader Mikhail Frunze, who was a local native. At the same time, the city was first renamed and then became the capital of the union republic. In 1991, Frunze was renamed Bishkek.

In the mid-1950s – early 1960s, the Soviet Union accomplished a kind of “scientific and technical hat-trick” - in 1954 it created the world’s first nuclear power plant, in 1957 it launched the world’s first artificial Earth satellite into orbit, and in 1961 launched the world's first spacecraft with a man on board. These events occurred respectively 9, 12 and 15 years after the end of the Great Patriotic War, in which the USSR suffered the greatest material and human losses from the participating countries.

The USSR did not lose wars.



During its existence, the Soviet Union officially participated in three wars - the Soviet-Finnish War of 1939–1940, the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945, and the Soviet-Japanese War of 1945. All these armed conflicts ended in victory for the Soviet Union.

1204 Olympic medals.



During the existence of the USSR, athletes of the Soviet Union took part in 18 Olympics (9 summer and 9 winter), winning 1204 medals (473 gold, 376 silver and 355 bronze). According to this indicator, the Soviet Union still ranks second, second only to the United States. For comparison, Great Britain, which is third, has 806 Olympic medals with 49 participations in the Olympic Games. As for modern Russia, it ranks 9th - 521 medals after 11 Olympics.

The first and last referendum.



In the entire history of the USSR, the only all-Union referendum was held, which took place on March 17, 1991. It raised the question of the continued existence of the USSR. More than 77 percent of referendum participants were in favor of preserving the Soviet Union. In December of the same year, the heads of the RSFSR, Ukrainian SSR and Byelorussian SSR announced the termination of the existence of a single country.

Happy New Year 2017 to all users of the USSR website. I wish all the best and prosperity to you and your family and friends. May the new year bring only good, kind, eternal things!

How did we live in THE USSR?

People tend to remember mostly only the good things in life. And this is a very useful evolutionary acquisition. Thanks to him, we live like people, and not like angry dogs barking at everything around us for no apparent reason. Almost everyone who shares their memories of life in the USSR (these are those who were already adults 25 years ago) writes that they still have the kindest feelings about that time; Emotional memories of carefree childhood, first love, ice cream for 9 kopecks, cheerful student life and many other, of course, pleasant and positive events. Without denying the pleasantness of good feelings and remembering that assessments of the same events can be completely different if they are analyzed for different purposes, in this article I will try to briefly understand not the feelings that different events caused in different people, but the fact that what it really was.

This must be done because today many public and political figures very persistently, rather even obsessively, they praise the USSR, tirelessly repeating that there we supposedly had free education, free medical care; supposedly free housing, free or very cheap vacation; and a lot of other things, just as tasty, beautiful and also supposedly free. This enemy Zionist propaganda, promoted with all its might by enemies, is designed primarily for the youth, which at one time did not have time to take a good look at all the “delights” of the Soviet way of life and therefore is forced to take such clever oracles at their word.

In order to understand what the USSR was really like, we need very little:

  • Find out who invented communism and when?
  • Find out why the USSR was created?
  • Find out who received the main benefits from this project?

So let’s look for answers to these questions, especially since today there is more than enough information to consider.

Who invented communism and when?

It is generally accepted that communism was invented by two Jews: Karl Marx And Friedrich Engels. In 1848 they published the Manifesto of the Communist Party, in which the following lines stand out: “Communists consider it a despicable thing to hide their views and intentions. They openly declare that their goals can only be achieved through the violent overthrow of the entire existing social order. Let the ruling classes tremble before the Communist Revolution..." However, it is known that these works of “German” philosophers were generously paid.

“Communism is the brainchild of the Jews!”

In 2001, a book by an American historian and publicist appeared in Russia David Duke entitled "The Jewish Question Through American Eyes." The author describes how, while still a schoolboy, he accidentally stumbled upon the truth about the creators of communism in America, while working as a volunteer in the office of a public organization. But he did not believe what was written in the newspapers and decided to check everything himself... Now he has been speaks the truth loudly about the actual role of Jews in many social processes on the planet, from the organization of the slave trade to wars, revolutions and environmental disasters. Dr. David Duke maintains its website on the Internet (in English) and constantly posts on its channel in YouTube video messages dedicated to the latest revelations of the subversive role of the “chosen people” on Earth. We translate these small, unique films into Russian and post them on Sovetnik and Molvitsa...

“The CPSU was created by Jews!”

On April 24, 2013, Nikolai Starikov on his website very well described who, how and when founded the party RSDLP, which later became known as CPSU. You can read about this in the article. The author writes that there is a house-museum in Minsk, where on March 1-3, 1898, constituent The first congress of the RSDLP (Russian Social Democratic Labor Party - predecessor CPSU). All programmatic and other necessary documents of this party were adopted later, at the Second Congress in 1903 in London. And this congress was only supposed to create a party. The founders of the future CPSU were the following Jewish comrades:

  • Eidelman Boris (1867-1939)
  • Vigdorchik Nathan Abramovich (1874-1954)
  • Mutnik Abram Yakovlevich (1868-1930)
  • Katz Shmuel Shneerovich (1878-1928)
  • Tuchapsky Pavel Lukich (1869-1922)
  • Radchenko Stepan Ivanovich (1868-1911)
  • Vannovsky Alexander Alekseevich (1874-1967)
  • Petrusevich Kazimir Adamovich (1872-1949)
  • Kremer Aaron Iosifovich (1865-1935)

This is a comprehensive answer to the question: “ who invented communism?. I repeat, communism was invented by people of Jewish nationality who have the Jewish religion. Why is this so important? Because these people had the misfortune of being chosen by certain Forces to achieve certain goals. Information about what Powers elected them, and what tasks they set for the Jews, is discussed in detail in the book of the academician Nikolay Levashov .

This is more or less clear. Now the next question: “ Why was communism invented??».

This question is answered "Manifesto of the Communist Party", which the text turned into "Project of the Communist Creed", written in early 1847 by the son of a merchant, Friedrich Engels, and his partner, the son of a rabbi, Karl Marx, members of the League of Communists based in London. Here is a relevant quote from the Manifesto: “The history of all hitherto existing societies has been the history of classes... Modern bourgeois private property is the last and most complete expression of such production and appropriation of products, which is based on class antagonisms, on the exploitation of some by others. In this sense, communists can express their theory in one proposition: destruction of private property…»

I hope everyone understands that if private property is destroyed somewhere, i.e. is taken away, then in another place (from the customers who paid for the work of the authors), it arrives, i.e. increases. Those who do not understand this “law of property conservation” can remember how the Jews carried out privatization in Russia in the early 1990s. That's the whole answer. Although, it can be supplemented a little to expand, so to speak, one’s horizons...

If you look at least a little closer at the revolutions organized in France and in other countries, and compare the methodology with modern so-called. "orange revolutions", then we will see a striking coincidence! Moreover, communist slogans "Equality, brotherhood, happiness" used by Jews even during the organization of the first revolution (coup d'etat) in Persia in the 4th century BC! And then - again during the second coup and robbery of Persia in the 5th century AD. (they then substituted the vizier Mazdak in their place).

Why was the USSR created?

The Treaty on the Formation of the USSR was signed on December 29, 1922, and the next day, December 30 of the same year, the First All-Union Congress of Soviets promptly and unanimously approved it.

Knowing who and for what purpose created the communist idea and brought it to life all over the world, the answer to the question posed can be obtained almost automatically: the USSR was created by Jews for enslavement, subsequent robbery And destruction, the Russian people and subsequently the entire white race on the planet. You can read about how the founders of the ideology of communism actually treated the Slavs in general and the Russians and Russia in particular in the article by A. Ulyanov. Hatred of the highest degree and a wild desire to destroy these “unhistorical”, reactionary peoples standing in the way of the world revolution, as “special enemies of democracy.”

It was for this purpose that he came to Russia with a lot of money, weapons and hired bandits from Leiba Bronstein(Leon Trotsky), on whose conscience were later millions of ruined lives of Russian people. Leiba Trotsky, among many others, was supplied with money, weapons and bandits by his distant relative Jacob Schiff- American banker and pathological Russophobe.

Comrade Bronstein was an ideological enemy of everything Russian and did not hide this, openly expressing the aspirations of his sponsors: “...We must turn Russia into a desert inhabited by white blacks, to whom we will give such tyranny that the most terrible despots of the East have never dreamed of. The only difference is that this tyranny will not be from the right, but from the left, and not white, but red, for we will shed such streams of blood, before which all the human losses of capitalist wars will shudder and turn pale..."

During the Civil War, the Chairman of the Revolutionary Military Council, Leibe Trotsky, was actively helped by both Americans and Europeans. They even sent him a special armored train, equipped with the most modern means of communication at that time and many other wonders. This is how Leiba Davydovich himself wrote about this miracle of technology: “...It was a flying control apparatus. The train had a secretariat, a printing house, a telegraph, a radio, a power plant, a library, a garage and a bathhouse. The train was so heavy that it had to travel with two locomotives. Then we had to split it into two trains..."

Trotsky managed to do a lot during the time that he was actually at the helm of the USSR (Trotsky's Revolutionary Military Council was a government body parallel to Lenin's Council of People's Commissars). And he would complete his work - until the last Russian, if, fortunately for us, he had not been stopped Joseph Dzhugashvili(Stalin). Comrade Stalin, after consulting with his other comrades, rightly reasoned that since they had seized Russia, it was no good to give the country and all the goods completely to American and English Jews, but it was better to try to reign to your heart’s content, especially since the banksters had everything investments in "Revolution" They returned it, and with huge interest.

Stalin and his comrades also had plans to take over the world. They sought to create the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics of the World ( USSR). Speaking to the delegates of the Fifth Congress of the Comintern on July 17, 1924, the chairman of the executive committee of the Comintern said: “There is no victory yet, and we still have to conquer five-sixths of the earth’s land so that there is a Union of Soviet Socialist Republics throughout the world.”. It is clearly visible that the name of the state does not even contain a hint of either nationality or territorial affiliation. And the purpose of this state was quite clearly expressed in the Declaration of its formation, namely: “...it will serve as a true bulwark against world capitalism and a new decisive step towards uniting the working people of all countries into the world Socialist Soviet Republic”. The slogan became the call: “Workers of all countries, unite!”, and the anthem of the USSR until 1943 was “Internationale”.

This is how the country, which will soon be called USSR, and in which everything leadership positions always belonged to Jews, some of whom were accomplices of a comrade Trotsky(Trotskyists were mostly Jews Sephardim), and some were accomplices of a comrade Stalin(they were mostly Jews Ashkenazim). In order to obtain documentary evidence of who really led the Union, I recommend reading the wonderful book by Andrei Diky “Jews in Russia and the USSR”.

What was wrong in the USSR?

Trotsky's Sephardim constantly fought with Stalin's Ashkenazim. It was an old war that Levites managed to arrange it in order to be able to somehow control their hyperactive fellow tribesmen. And although in 1937 Comrade Stalin slightly thinned out the ranks of the Trotskyists, this struggle has not subsided to this day and has a decisive influence on most of the events taking place in Russia. We need to understand well that USSR created by Jews NOT for Russians, but for yourself. In addition, we must remember that the Sephardic Trotskyists are still carrying out the task of total destruction of people on the planet. But the Ashkenazis do not interfere with this, but only try to make sure that there are enough slaves left for them in Russia. Those. in reality they are hostile towards the Russian people and Trotskyists(Sephardim), and Stalinists(Ashkenazi). But the former want to destroy the Rus completely, and the latter agree to leave a few Rus for their service. That's the whole difference between true creators USSR!

Now let’s briefly analyze point by point several specific statements about what and how it was in the USSR, especially since the author lived almost his entire life in and personally observed and was a participant in much of what happened there. Let me remind you that I am trying to analyze what really happened to us in the USSR, and not what it seems to someone today or what some circles want us to think.

1. Public ownership of the means of production. This is pure water deception(enemy propaganda), because apart from these words, the “general people” never had anything else. The Constitution actually contained such a general phrase, but there was no specification, what kind of people in the Soviet multinational state is this owner, and nowhere was it written down exactly how this nationwide form of ownership is implemented. In fact, none of the people had even the slightest opportunity to dispose of any parts of the public property, and therefore, in fact, were not its owner or co-owner! The Jewish leaders of the CPSU simply brainwashed semi-literate population, masking the fact that the real owner of Russia was Russia, which had long lived under communism, even during the war. So, there was no “public ownership” of anything in the USSR, and Nikolai Levashov quite rightly wrote that “socialism is state capitalism, plus the slave system!”

4. Free housing. And this is a brilliant example of communist ingenuity and Jewish shamelessness! If in the West almost the entire population has long been buying housing, cars and much more on credit (there are big problems with credit there, because 200-300% is paid for the loan), then in the USSR it was done it's the other way around! The workers received supposedly free housing, but after standing in line for 15-20 years, and in fact paying in advance the cost of housing, education, and medical care. service, and everything else “free” through your hard work throughout your life. So cunning "free" was in the USSR. And at one time so much was shown and written about the quality of the housing being built that only the blind, deaf, and dumb did not know about it. By the way, today they build housing almost the same way as they once did in the Soviet Union. And not because they don’t know how, but because they deliberately deceive apartment buyers, trying to save money wherever possible and impossible, from the thickness of the walls to the lack of ventilation, central heating, poor windows and doors! But the prices for this shame are set as if everything were made of pure gold...

5. The country's governance system was truly democratic. Many probably remember that the country was called Soviet, i.e. everything was formally concentrated in all sorts of advice, starting from townships and villages, and ending with the Supreme Council. This was done so that the official could avoid personal responsibility for the decisions made: they say, the Council decided so, and “bribes from him are smooth.” But real power belonged everywhere party bodies. The little party god of the regional scale was a real king in his fiefdom, but at the same time he was completely subordinate to another god, who sat on the floor above; and so on, all the way to . This is how they lived: decisions were made by some, carried out by others, and popular discontent, which very often took place in the USSR, was suppressed by others. Reading newspapers with various Resolutions and Decisions, it was impossible to understand anything, just like today, and only much later the picture began to gradually become clearer...

6. Real poverty reigned in the USSR! Of course, not everywhere! In the Union, in addition to party secretaries and instructors, workers of numerous Soviets lived well, and, most importantly, a populous caste of trade workers. Managers of enterprises and organizations, workers in hazardous professions, and very few artists and writers were more or less able to make ends meet. And the bulk of the population (percent 90-95 ) had great difficulty making ends meet. For example, my parents were doctors with higher education. But they were honest and decent people and did not stoop to extorting gifts from the sick, i.e. lived on salary. Therefore, I remember that, although we lived very modestly, for many years my mother could not make ends meet in the family budget and constantly borrowed several rubles from neighbors "before payday". And this despite the fact that dad never spent money on alcohol, because he didn’t drink because of a stomach ulcer he received while still a student. People's salaries were extremely low, and with this system of remuneration the population was deliberately lowered professionally, morally, and ethically. In order to live more or less tolerably, people were forced to use chemicals– to steal, i.e. break the law, become criminals! Thus, the Jewish Soviet government, following the precepts, slowed down or even completely stopped the evolutionary development of the population, slowly but surely turning it into a large herd of rams (rams).

7. Nepotism and protectionism reigned in the USSR. It was possible to get to any leadership positions only (!) through patronage. And the positions, relatively speaking, higher than the head of the housing office, could only be obtained through Jewish protection, which non-Jews could never receive in principle. The only exceptions are those cases when it was impossible to do without a goy specialist, when he had to carry out all the work. But basically, all positions of any significance were occupied by persons of revolutionary nationality. One of the confirmations of this may well be the following example, which I saw for several years in the main building of the Donetsk Polytechnic, where I happened to study at one time. There on the long wall near the Rector's office hung large portraits all exes rectors this once highly respected university. And walking past this gallery hundreds of times, I gradually read almost all the names of the “patriarchs”, who, of course, every single one of them turned out to be Jews. Then I didn’t see anything unusual in this, because we were taught internationalism from the cradle. And now, remembering this small touch of my student life, I also remembered that all the vice-rectors, all the deans and all the heads of departments at that time were also Jews And… communists. And then I noticed that the secretaries of district committees, city committees, regional committees, and chairmen of councils at all levels, and all the rest of the “boss” were either Jews (in most cases) or representatives Semitic peoples(Armenians, Georgians, Chechens and others (more than 30 nations)).

8. In the USSR there was complete lawlessness and total corruption. This was inevitable in conditions when all power was concentrated in the hands of party functionaries who were not responsible to anyone. no responsibility for your actions. Therefore, in the USSR it was not reigned, but a real tyranny of party secretaries and punitive authorities. And the entire population was forced to submit to this evil will. Because, in case of any disobedience, any person could simply be destroyed, deprived of his job and, accordingly, his means of livelihood, or put in prison or a psychiatric hospital on fabricated grounds or even without them. The party bosses were not afraid of anyone or anything, because they diligently carried out "party line", which had sufficient power to quickly neutralize any person or organization. You can get some idea of ​​the level of corruption in the USSR from articles and many others.

9. In science, culture and art almost everything was occupied by Jews. Accurate estimates will probably someday emerge, but offhand we can say that about 90% of all figures in these areas were Jews. One of the documentary evidence of this is the text of the memorandum of Agitprop of the Central Committee M.A. Suslov “On the selection and placement of personnel in the USSR Academy of Sciences” dated October 23, 1950, which also states as a direct test that the Academy is sabotaging work in the most important areas... To understand the situation with culture, you can read the short article “Russian culture with a Jewish mark.” And be sure to read the wonderful books of the real Russian writer Ivan Drozdov, who began his writing career immediately after the Great Patriotic War, and became a victim of the victorious Jewish wars for Russian literature.

This is far from a complete list of what those people who sincerely regret the collapse of the USSR do not know or have forgotten. As Vladimir Putin recently very aptly and accurately noted: “Whoever does not regret the collapse of the USSR has no heart, and whoever wants its revival has no head!” But besides the CPSU, there was also the KGB, there was the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there was the ObkhSS, there was the Army, in which All leadership positions always occupied by people who defended the interests of the ruling government, and Not Russian people. Let us remember, for example, in August 2008, organized by the United States and Israel: the Russian military authorities did not dare to resist the Zionists! Vladimir Putin, being at that time the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation (the Supreme Commander-in-Chief was then President D. Medvedev), urgently left the Olympics in China and flew to organize a rebuff to the aggressor! And only then did Russia begin to fight... Those who wish can always find a lot of additional and confirming materials on the Internet and make sure that Soviet Union was for real slave state, only slavery was organized not as shown in - with chains and shackles, but in a modern way, when slaves consider themselves free people and independently work for the slave owner!..

Who destroyed the USSR and how?

The USSR was the creation of the Jewish financial mafia, it fulfilled its functions of keeping a huge country in slavery very well, and, of course, no one was going to destroy it! The imitation of the confrontation between the “two systems” was necessary to divide the peoples of the planet and instill hatred among the peoples of the whole world towards the Russians, whom the Jews presented as the creators. And, of course, neither the Sephardim, who are led by the Rockefeller family, nor the Ashkenazim, who are commanded by the Rothschilds, nor the Levites, nor other clans of a higher level had no plans to destroy the “system of socialism”, with the help of which a good half of the white race of the planet was kept in slavery...

The USSR was a multinational country with the proclaimed principle of friendship of peoples. And this friendship was not always just a declaration. It was impossible to do otherwise in a country inhabited by more than 100 different nations and nationalities. The equality of all peoples in the formal absence of a titular nation is the basis for the propaganda myth of “a single historical community - the Soviet people.”
However, all representatives of a single historical community were required to have passports, which contained the notorious “fifth column” to indicate the citizen’s nationality in the document. How was nationality determined in the USSR?

By passport

Certification of the country's population began in the early 30s and ended shortly before the war. Each passport must indicate social status, place of residence (registration) and nationality. Moreover, then, before the war, according to a secret order of the NKVD, nationality was to be determined not by the self-determination of a citizen, but based on the origin of the parents. The police had instructions to check all cases of discrepancy between the surname and the nationality declared by the citizen. Statisticians and ethnographers compiled a list of 200 nationalities, and when receiving a passport, a person received one of the nationalities from this list. It was on the basis of these very passport data that mass deportations of peoples were carried out in the 30s and later. According to the calculations of historians, representatives of 10 nationalities were subjected to total deportation to the USSR: Koreans, Germans, Ingrian Finns, Karachais, Kalmyks, Chechens, Ingush, Balkars, Crimean Tatars and Meskhetian Turks. In addition, there was implicit, but quite obvious anti-Semitism, and the practice of repression against representatives of other peoples, such as Poles, Kurds, Turks, etc. Since 1974, nationality has been indicated in the passport based on the application of the person himself. Then jokes like this appeared: “Dad is Armenian, mom is Jewish, who will be their son? Of course, Russian! However, in most cases, nationality was still indicated by one of the parents.

By mom and dad

In the overwhelming majority of cases, a citizen determined his nationality by the nationality of his father. In the USSR, patriarchal traditions were quite strong, according to which the father determined both the surname and nationality of the child. However, there were other options. For example, many people, if they had to choose between “Jew” and “Russian,” chose “Russian,” even if their mother was Russian. This was done because the “fifth column” made it possible for officials to discriminate against representatives of certain national minorities, including Jews. However, after Jews were allowed to leave for Israel in 1968, the opposite situation was sometimes observed. Some Russians looked for some Jew among their relatives and made incredible efforts to change the inscription in the “fifth column.” During this period of free national self-identification, nationalities were determined according to lists of officially recognized peoples living in the USSR. In 1959, there were 126 names on the list, in 1979 – 123, and in 1989 – 128. At the same time, some peoples, for example, Assyrians, were not on these lists, while in the USSR there lived people who defined their nationality in this way .

By the face

There is a sad joke about a Jewish pogrom. They beat up a Jew, and his neighbors say to him: “How can this be, you bought yourself a passport with a “fifth column” where it says Russian!” To which he sadly replies: “Yes, but they beat me not on my passport, but on my face!” Actually, this anecdote quite accurately illustrates the situation in the law enforcement agencies, where they were taught to determine nationality this way: not by the passport, but by the face . And if it is, in general, easy to distinguish a Gypsy from a Yakut, then it will be somewhat more difficult to understand where the Yakut is and where the Buryat are. How can you understand where the Russian is, and where the Latvian or Belarusian is? There were entire tables with ethnic types of persons, which allowed police officers, KGB officers and other structures to accurately distinguish people “not by passport.” Of course, this required a good memory for faces and observation, but who said that understanding the nationality of people in a country where more than 100 nations live would be easy?

At the behest of the heart

The "fifth column" was abolished in 1991. Nowadays, nationality is not indicated in the passport and other documents or is indicated in special inserts, solely at will. And now there are no lists of nationalities from which a citizen must choose. The removal of restrictions on national self-identification led to an interesting result. During the 2010 census, some citizens indicated their affiliation with such nations as “Cossack”, “Pomor”, “Scythian” and even “elf”.

They tell me how bad it turns out we lived in the Soviet Union. How bad it was. Like there was nothing in the stores. How the regime did not allow me to live normally. What villains the leaders were. Etc.

All this sounds from TV screens and on the radio, creeps into the brain from newspaper pages and magazine pages, and generally hangs in the air. But something inside me resists this mythology; simple everyday logic leads to completely different conclusions.

Let's try to put everything into pieces.

I was born in the 60s. I even managed to live under Khrushchev for a whole year. I didn’t feel the famous “Khrushchev’s thaw”, and my parents talked about corn flour, hominy, “Kuzka’s mother” for America and other delights of the “pre-stagnation” time. I can't say anything about this. I didn’t realize it then because...

Kindergarten

When the time came, they sent me to kindergarten. This is a good factory kindergarten. And the food was delicious - fresh fruits and vegetables were included in the diet, and they took them to the sea in the summer, and there were plenty of toys. The most important thing is that everything is FREE for parents.

But this part of childhood, which lasts so long, also ends.

School

The school was spacious and bright. A new building, as well as a gymnasium and an assembly hall, were later added to the post-war building. All conditions, in general. I remember free milk for elementary school students at the first recess and breakfasts for 15 kopecks at the second recess. Children from large, single-parent families and whose parents had low salaries ate for FREE. Either at the expense of various trade unions, or something else. Breakfast and lunch were provided for them.

At school there was just a bunch of all sorts of clubs, where those who wanted were literally forced into. As you already understood, of course, all this is FREE.

I remember that the parent committee sometimes collected money from parents for new curtains for the classroom. And all repairs were carried out at the expense of the state.

Summer rest

In high school, in the summer we were taken to the collective farm, to a labor and rest camp (LTO). Now they might say: exploitation of child labor. And we really liked it. Sometimes they harvested cherries, beets or tomatoes. Or weeding something. Lunch at a field camp – romance! And after lunch - sports games, trips to the village club, guitar and other pleasures. For us and our parents, everything was FREE, and the collective farm even paid a few pennies extra to the school. We were allowed to take up to half a bucket of cherries or a bucket of tomatoes from the field “for personal use” every day. Also kind of like an improvised salary.

I was lucky enough to visit a pioneer camp a couple of times. The camp was also a factory camp, and the factory was of all-Union significance. Therefore, children there were from all over the Soviet Union. So many new acquaintances! With whom we corresponded for years later.

The best schoolchildren were awarded trips to Artek (Gurzuf) or to the Young Guard (Odessa).

Sports and leisure

For this purpose there were departmental and state sports schools, cultural centers and, of course, the Palace of Pioneers. Any sports sections, clubs, cultural and musical clubs of all sorts. And it goes without saying that everything is FREE. From time to time, coaches and club leaders came to the school for “recruitment”—to lure students into these sections.

I also went in for sports. Different types until I chose what I liked. All sports sections provided sports uniforms for practice. Also, no one required anyone to come to the clubs with their own chess, paint brushes and other equipment necessary for classes.

There was a sports camp for athletes in the summer. It looks like a pioneer, only up to 3 training sessions a day, on the seashore. We went to competitions monthly, sometimes even 2-3 times a month. Travel, accommodation, food - AT THE EXPENSE OF THE STATE.

My passion for music led me to create a vocal and instrumental ensemble (VIA) at school. The school had some musical instruments, but the SCHOOL BOUGHT what we needed. They rehearsed, as expected, “in a closet behind the assembly hall.” Sometimes they performed at competitions. True, at competitions I had to sing not what I liked, but patriotic or Komsomol songs.

University

I won’t repeat myself, but education at any university was free. After graduation, all graduates had a job waiting for them. Moreover, it was necessary to work for 3 years. Honors students received a so-called “free diploma”, that is, the right to choose their place of work. In universities, as in schools, sports and cultural leisure were also fully provided. Plus a hostel for out-of-towners.

Army

Since I entered a military school, I know firsthand about the army. The army was what we needed. It had power, strength, and the most modern weapons. And COMBAT READINESS, now it’s even hard to believe, is such that after a night alert, the entire unit without any problems departed to a reserve area or training area, sometimes hundreds and even thousands of kilometers away. It was only later, when serving in the Ukrainian army, that exercises began to be carried out “on maps” - they (exercises) are called command and staff exercises. Or on computers in general. The imagination pictures a general with a joystick in his hands. But what to do when they don’t give you money for full-fledged combat training, with shooting, flying, military campaigns, etc.? The salary (in the army they call it salary) was very decent, and the service itself was very prestigious. The officer was treated with great respect in society.

Housing

This question has always been before citizens, since the population tends to grow and create new families - social units that need new living space. This was easy in the USSR. You work or serve, you stand on the housing register (in the queue for housing). And sooner or later YOU WILL GET AN APARTMENT, square meters depending on the number of family members. You could stand in line for three or ten years. Many factories themselves built housing for their workers - entire villages or districts. And with all the infrastructure: schools, kindergartens, shops, roads.

Job

Standard of living, shops, prices

The USSR is often depicted with empty store shelves. I've never seen anything like this. Not all goods could be purchased easily. This was called "scarcity". Imported goods were highly valued. Moreover, it doesn’t matter which country you’re from, capitalist or socialist. The main thing is that it is not like ours.

My parents, ordinary workers, always had enough salary for food, clothing, and household items. Large purchases - TV, refrigerator, furniture - were made on credit. Buying a car - that was the problem! And the price is unattainable, and there are special queues, quotas, etc.

Product quality

This is worth mentioning separately. We still use many goods produced in the Soviet Union. Made well, firmly, thoughtfully, conscientiously. There were some defective items, but not many. But our light industry constantly lagged behind fashion. First of all, due to the fact that she was not the trendsetter of this very fashion. So I worked late. And we were chasing imported clothes, buying “branded” items at exorbitant prices from black marketeers.

Medicine

The quality of Soviet medicine is still being debated. In many of its branches, our specialists were the best in the world. This applies to ophthalmology and cardiac surgery. And our therapy was up to par. We were lagging behind in some ways, for good reason. In any case, medicine in Ukraine has not become better, but you have to pay for everything. But preventive medicine, medical examinations for various categories of citizens and, especially, for children - so here the USSR was ahead of the rest.

Industry

The Soviet doctrine of isolation from the rest of the world required complete self-sufficiency in all industries. That’s why heavy industry, medium-sized mechanical engineering (rocket engineering), and, of course, the strong point of the entire system—the “defense industry”—were created and became world leaders. Hundreds of research institutes (research institutes) under the name “mailbox number such and such” worked for the defense industry. Salaries there were higher and there were more benefits.

In this situation, light industry, which produces consumer goods, always found itself in the rear. Both in terms of quality and quantity of products needed by the population.

Ideology

Ideology permeated the entire life of Soviet people. In kindergarten - poems about Lenin. At school - October, then Pioneer and Komsomol. At first everything was real and with youthful fervor, then, in the 80s, with the formalism of Komsomol and party meetings. Permitted and unauthorized topics for conversation. Discussion in the kitchen only with close relatives of “political topics” and fear of the KGB, which I never had to face. Prohibited films, rock band records and “samizdat” books.

It was difficult to understand that all this was pressing and strangling freedom of speech. There was no other point of reference, no example for comparison. Therefore, such manifestations of Soviet reality were perceived as certain rules of the game. We knew the rules and played by them. Sometimes for fun, sometimes seriously.

Decay

After Gorbachev's perestroikas, accelerations and other political and economic leapfrogs, the collapse of the USSR came. And in 1991, at the All-Ukrainian referendum, I, like millions of citizens living on the territory of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, voted for the independence of Ukraine. In those years, thanks to skillfully launched rumors, we all firmly believed that Ukraine fed half of the Union. And after separation we will roll around like cheese in butter. They separated and lived their own lives.

If we ignore the period of the dashing 90s, when wild capitalism raged, the plunder of state and public property flourished, inflation and social depression raged, then now everything seems to have calmed down. Everything has been plundered, divided, settled and reduced to an unfair capitalist denominator.

What did we get?

We send our children to the few kindergartens that survived the conversion, built during the Soviet Union. And we pay, we pay, we pay... Since independence, a dozen kindergartens have been built.

Then school and extortions, extortions, extortions. Poor quality of education and paid tutors. Educational clubs for money, sports for money, if we can afford it. And if not, then children are raised on the street, with drug addiction and juvenile delinquency. By the way, so many schools have been built since independence that there would be many fingers on one hand.

If you are lucky, your child will enter a university on a budget; if not, then go to a private educational institution. Somehow he’ll get a specialty, but it’s unlikely that he’ll get a job. And the young specialist will go to sell at the market or work as some kind of office bug, or as a promoter, merchandiser and other riffraff involved in the sale of goods.

And in 90 percent of cases it will be unrealistic for a young family to earn an apartment; they will wait until “the grandmother vacates the living space.”

Factories in Ukraine have either been looted and destroyed, or have passed into private hands and work for the “uncles”, and not for the public pocket. Accordingly, they are not involved in social programs, construction of housing and sanatoriums for workers and employees.

Unbiased statistics say that in 20 years less than fifty kilometers of railways have been built in Ukraine. Against several thousand kilometers of railway in the Ukrainian SSR during the Soviet Union.

But we now have the most free ideology. And you can say whatever you want. Because everyone really doesn’t care what and how you talk about. Freedom of speech in full glory. And now we have parties, like uncut dogs, for every taste. But none of them will protect the interests of the common man.

And how chic it is in our stores. Everything in bulk: imported clothes, electronic equipment from Europe and Asia, products with GMOs and other chemicals from all over the world!

conclusions

So it turns out that we gained as a result of independence. Freedom of speech and an abundance of clothes. The first is, of course, a valuable acquisition. Today we can no longer live without freedom of speech. You get used to it quickly, but it’s impossible to get out of the habit.

Opponents will probably say that Ukraine will rise from its knees, develop its economy, etc. To me it sounds like a fairy tale, because I am no longer old enough to believe in fairy tales.

The main thing we have lost is social protection, state protection, state care for its citizens. The social model of the state, when the state provides citizens with decent education, medicine, pensions, and social programs, has been replaced by a liberal one. Liberal comes from the word liber (“free”). Citizens are given freedom - do what you want, within the law, of course. But the state also shrugs off concerns about its citizens. Freed up. Live as you want. Study as you want, get treatment, live where you want or don’t live at all.

So, I lived a lousy life during the Soviet Union??? Convince me, please. I’m not in poverty now, I’m not depressed and I don’t complain about life. But I don’t want to believe this lie. The Soviet Union cannot be returned, but why blame it? As if this makes anyone feel better.

We continue to use everything that was created, built and produced in the USSR. We wear out factories, roads, schools and hospitals like old clothes, without producing anything in return. How long will it last?
