Babushka with the Soviet flag really knew her stuff and she was up on everything.

[dusttilldawn]

Thank you Comrade The Lady that made her own flag was a true inspiration to all off the Workers in the World Long Live Russia

[encomunismo]

I do not think I am exaggerating when I say that the USSR is still the greatest feat undertaken by Humanity. The world will always be in debt to the USSR. From a Spanish communist with love: Long live Russia!

My favorite part is when this gentleman next to the lady with a flag says that his son was eating black caviar with the spoon lol
From now on I will tell this as an answer to shortage questions.

I really think we need to start disabusing foreigners of the false notion that the American people are somehow good, and it's just that the government is bad. We have a volunteer army and consistent majorities who support war and fervently believe in American exceptionalism.

All of these old Soviet citizens were again amazing to listen to, especially the babushka. :) And that young KPRF comrade? He was lovely to listen to, well. Let's hope that his dreams for a return of the Soviet Union and Soviet socialism can be realised! Thanks very much, comrade. :)

Brilliant video. I love listening to older people reminisce about their life in the USSR. It’d be interesting to hear what they remember of their parents’ lives also. I wish the interviews were longer. Thank you!

[sarahgry]

Awesome. we need more of these story to show the world they have been lied by imperialism, well done Comrade😍😍😍🥰✊✊✊

[edhiepitz]

I like the babhuskha with the huge flag, she might be older than Biden but she can still string full coherent sentence.

[ProleCenter]

I guess they are lumping in the mid to late 80s in with the 90s because there absolutely were some shortages beginning in the mid 80s.

Happy Holiday Russia . Thank you for an excellent report !

[Aussie_Truth]

Seriously - That went so quickly, I was so absorbed listening to those lovely people from the Soviet Union. Then the next thing you say, "well that's it comrades" 😂 it was fantastic 👍

Can you point me into the direction of some honest video's of 'in the Soviet times', not western made, which is all I seem to be able to find over here in Australia, and they all portray the Soviet Union as negative, closed off and backwards.

The West portrays everyone in Soviet times, similarly as North Korea's portrayed now, with the entire population wearing gray outfits, working 20 hours a day, living in horrible accommodation, eating only bread and water, while singing endless songs praising the Soviet Leader.

[hangonsnoop]

This is wonderful journalism. Thanks.

[ProleCenter]

That last guy you interviewed got cut off toward the end. You know, Western communists always ask Soviet citizens their opinions about Lenin and Stalin, but I'd love to get their take on Khrushchev as well. The popular idea among many communists these days, that Khrushchev was an evil revisionist, I find to be ridiculous. Btw, the CIA got their hands on the so-called secret speech before it was published in the West. We don't actually know what Khrushchev really said.

[cyrusabasi]

What a shame! how easily the Russian Lost this deeply human system and enormous advanta
Ges economico political.and for the rest of the world was catastrophic!

[woodytobiasjr]

Try and get translations if you can, then I could listen to them while I work.

[RBLXGaming]

Why do you use a GDR song as the intro for your channel which is mostly about the Soviet Union?

[idansimpson]

It me. One of the Americans tired of what the US is doing around the world. It's disgusting.

[Henryy]

Love your videos man...I truly believe that Russia will breakup if socialism doesn't return, people are getting too greedy and mean to each other.
