KPRF Presidential Candidate Says: BRING LENINGRAD BACK 🗣️🗣️🗣️
The Communist candidate for president of Russia wants St. Petersburg and Volgograd to be Leningrad and Stalingrad again
This will most likely be as (un)successful as the KPRF's attempt to readopt the Soviet flag as the national flag. Don't get your hopes up, they are not going to restore the Soviet Union by slowly "voting in" communist symbolism.
they get like 20% popular vote 10% seats and yeah the presidential race is not happening but this shit is hype.
2️⃣
This guy ran for president back in 2004. Twenty fucking years ago. Jesus Christ can the KPRF please stop recycling the same two old dudes and put some young, exciting and revolutionary candidates out there???
all the young russian communists are far too based and lgbt accepting, gotta keep the crusty guys going
As much as it disgusts me, I blame NATOids attempting to use my lust for cock as a weapon. Nobody can actually stop anime online LGBT brainwashing, they can only delay this.

Afonin and Parfenov seem pretty decent, according to the Russkies, but this one is a suicide mission. Everyone knows it, The most they can hope to get out of this election is to push Putin towards a more nationalized economy away from liberalism.
Oh joy, the revisionists are co-opting communist iconography for nationalist nostalgia
Yo this is the party of Lenin we’re talking about here. It’s also the most powerful communist party in today’s Europe, holding a double digit percentage of seats in the duma of Europe’s most populous country. I wish them well in the upcoming elections.
Arguably, the "Party of Lenin" is the RCWP, since that's the remnants of the hardliners that tried the coup in 91. They're a bit ultra but surprisingly youthful and progressive for a Party that came out of defeated military hardliners. Nevertheless (extremely) critical support to the KPRF.
I have plenty of critiques of the KPRF but I'm not really interested in baseless sectarianism. Feel free to elaborate.
People here will dismiss all post-soviet communist parties as "nostalgic boomers" but then tell us to join CPUSA lmao. Why is it OK for us to have imperfect revisionist parties we need to whip into shape, but not for other nations to? Why is the pro-DNC revisionism more acceptable than the pro-Putin revisionism when the DNC is actually a more fascist, genocidal, neoliberal and imperialist body than Putin's administration?
Its clearly nationalist pandering for the future election, but i have a soft spot for the return of soviet iconography so im willing to be positive
although there has been a large trend in the past few years at co-opting Stalin and other such socialist peoples for the purpose of nationalism in Russia. but due to its communist nature it could swing either way.
russian politics is extremely cursed
Baseless in what way? They're the self described continuation of Gorbachev's CPSU, which most MLs rightly criticize for a ton of reasons. They have an ossified aging leadership that refuses to bend to the more radical youth of the party and instead pushes milquetoast parliamentary "communism" to stagnant electoral results. The same social democratic dead end we've seen a hundred times already.
Bring back Stalingrad too!
I was surprised to learn the other day that Stalingrad was renamed under
. What a loser goddamn.Read "Khrushev lied", like the entire secret speech was a lie including some straight up in their face lies which people listening to know has been lies because some of them been there and witnessed, like the ones about Beria or Sergo or Yezhov, but he prepared everything just like he accused Stalin of doing and purged entire opposition.
His whole fucking career as head honcho was just sabotaging the legacy of Stalin and doing revisionism. The good military moves were secondary.
I suspect this guy is another post-East Bloc boomer who's nostalgic for the USSR more out of nationalist pride than genuine socialism, but the fact he said Leningrad instead of Stalingrad gives me mild hope. Weirdo Russian NatBols trend to be pure Stalin Stans while repeating that "Lenin was a German spy" BS.
Everything I don’t like is Nazbol
Could they simply be boring revisionist Soviets akin to Khrushchev (still a huge upgrade from any Liberal party)? No, they are secret Nazis!
