Your accent is very lovely. You really are a true Russian, or to be precise, a true Soviet.

Мой отец жил в Советском Союзе, я не знаю. Он всегда хвалил Советский Союз, говоря, что у него есть недостатки, но, несмотря на это, он говорил, что он дает права всем, и самое лучшее, что он делает. не допускать, а скорее интеллектуального вырождения, не знаю, но вижу, что в СССР ситуация лучше, чем в нынешнем мире, в конце концов, Запад живет за счет даров Востока, и этим. это то, что делает их сильными

Thank you for this video! This information helps me to have a deeper understanding the political dynamics of the Soviet Union during its time. My parents offered me an opportunity to go to Russia 🇷🇺 when I graduated high school in 1989 with my social studies class at my school and I turned it down. I have regretted my decision ever since. I turned the trip down because I thought my parents were doing enough for my graduation with parties, presents, big meals, overnight trips to Disneyland with my senior class, etc. I also regretted not visiting Russia because I could have seen what the Soviet Union was like before the Berlin Wall came down later in November of that same year. It could have been a piece of history and experience, now as a teacher myself could have shared with my students. Long story short, So now, I tell my students all of the time, if you ever get a window of opportunity that comes your way for a new experience, do it! So you don’t regret it like me 😢 Great video👍🏾😌

Every May 1st I host a May Day Party - gets a good 30+ attendees (grows yearly) who were in the Pioneers/Komsomol/Communist Youth of their countries. We wear our badges (many of us saved at least a few), red or blue kerchiefs - some people still have their hats. The party always starts out with us reenacting a Pioneer meeting, complete with reciting the oath, saluting, etc. To outsiders, it may sound lame, but we are ROLLING with laughter by the end. My housemate's mum was in the Titovi Pioniri (Jugoslavija) & only 2 years ago worked up the courage to join us (she's in her 80s)... at first she was nervous (old habits of being monitored die HARD), but now she has a blast and joins in the fun. Of course I make good old Soviet dishes - Makaroni po Flotski, Salat Olivier (tinned veg ONLY!), home made Kompot and Kvas... plus Communist-era dishes from the countries our friends are from... then we drink wodka, Slivovic, and Sovietskoye Shampanskoye (not all the labels say Igristoye yet) and sing the old songs. It's so much fun and VERY liberating (again, Westerners can't possibly understand). It's also a LOT of fun - yes, we lived in a giant prison, but that didn't mean we were miserable all the time! We laughed, ate, drank, and led decent lives. The funniest part is that we have people who were Russians, Soviet Jews, Hungarians, Poles, Jugoslavs, Ethiopians, Roumanians, Lithuanians, Slovaks - and with only SLIGHT differences, the meetings we all had to go through were THE SAME lol Да здравствует Первомай! !שאלעמ מיר מיי
