Most finnaboos still think Russia (not USSR mind you, they always use Russia) had lost the "winter war". Muh hwyte deff and all that

I once won a short trivia game against five pretty well-educated friends by a single point, because I was the only one who knew that the R in USSR stood for 'Republics', not 'Russia'

Jfc. How old have you all been at the time?

[–] CascadeOfLight@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

We were all born after it stopped existing, but I have no doubt older people in my country have equally little clue what it stands for.

Bruh my 9th grade history teacher though so too 💀

We have a similar story in India, as you might know our Mughal kings definitely had defeated the Rajput kings and ruled Northern India but after the Hindutva nazification our government approved school book says Rajputs defeated the mighty Mughals and Mughals rewrote the history to suite them.

Ah, the classics of nationalist mythology! I think we're still going through that in capitalist Russia, although there's the tiny difficulty of coping with Soviet past. Kinda hard to bash the ebil commies while chest thumping about being the first to space, you know?

At least you Russians did something in 1925-1980s to feel proud of , we didn't do anything still out nationalists think we are no.1 . And we constantly bash China for not having "democracy" . Yes a democracy where most of politicians are gang members did murders , rape one way or the other. Your libs are the worst , they would sell their mother for western democracy not much different than Indian libs but at least we have some sense of anti west feelings

Well you landed a probe on the moon just recently. That's something to be proud of imo

that's definitely an achievement after failing 2 times but remember it has been done when 30-50 percent of our people live in poverty . https://scroll.in/article/1048475/how-many-people-live-below-the-poverty-line-in-india-it-could-be-34-million-or-373-million , simply our middle class has shrunk after Modi's privatization and crony capitalism . The foundation of our space research was led by Nehru who was a pro Soviet guy and founder of Non Aligned movement, BJP where as is busy with all sorts of superstitions and what not.

A rat done bit my sister Nell.

(with Whitey on the Moon)

Her face and arms began to swell.

(and Whitey's on the Moon)

I can't pay no doctor bill.

(but Whitey's on the Moon)

Ten years from now I'll be paying still.
