Its funny how, soviet russia, might be one of the countries i connect to africa the least, yet here we have, a soviet cartoon, about africans, and they even made them normal, not like, all stereotyped
Товарищи афроамериканцы, в советском Союзе было 180 национальностей, все жили в мире. Англичане захватили земли индейцев, и заставили вас строить им дома... А теперь адумайтесь, эти же люди говорят всем что советский союз был кровавым и социализм по своей сути являются злом.... Они правы социализм = равенство, оно являезлом, но только для них, а не для всех
So the moral of the story is that being private land owner is good and you should not under any circumstances have to share that wealth with people who didn't work for it. Got it, thanks USSR.
Interesante ver como los soviéticos se dieron cuenta que la mejor arma que tienen los gringos para debilitar a una sociedad es destruir su inteligencia con entretenimiento inútil, después de todo, hicieron lo mismo con su propia gente
From now on only the Comments from African people count. No comments from Russia or Western countries are valid. ONLY AFRICAN !!! Только комментарии от африканцев считаются самыми объективными. Все комментарии от Запада и от России не считаются 😊 😛
Yep as an African myself I agree we got played hard, this was beautifully made, captured how Africa was once a paradise it's people lived on, then after being too welcoming and overfamiliar with foreigners, got over-exploited and shriveled up into what seems like a wasteland, but nothing lasts forever so I'll leave it at that. * And I love how the black man wasn't drawn in an offensive way like most sketches during the time.
The contrast between consumption as destruction and tending as creation. The man is a creator, loving the land he owns. The imperialists are consumers with an endless appetite, and it’s because they don’t own the land but steal it. Truly beautiful. I’m not political but this is art and doesn’t even imply communism as an answer. Simply man loving his land instead of eating it up.
I don’t support the Soviet Union with their plan to work with African nations, but they do have a point. The West never did anything good for Africa with only the intent to take more. Conservatives will tell you “the solution is capitalism,” but evidence points towards the contrary.
I like it, I love the idea to paint water... with water! Nice drawning all the cartoon. The massage is clear: A nation takes everything from the other nation in blinding him with superflual things and void promises. Everyone should see cartoons like that. It is like the Rammstein Song "Amerika": "When we dance I want to lead, I'll show you how it really should work, I'll save you from wrong steps..."
Soviets generally were less racist than the west (especially during the 60's), but they did act pretty much the same as the animals they're showing here, but not because of racism.
Хотите вам всю малину обломаю и одним предложением докажу, что это пропаганда? Этот мультфильм показывает как двуличен был советский союз (и заметьте, я не говорил, что современная Россия другая). Они показывают как некий "гость" ущемляет права бедного местного жителя и как гость не прав, какой гость мерзкий и отвратительный. Тем временем советский союз в краях малых народов в своем составе вел и ведет себя точно так же. Пришли, например, к бурятам и отобрали всё. Сначала мех и золото, потом нефть и алмазы. Отобрали культуру, отобрали язык, отобрали родину. Сейчас этот богатейший край населен беднейшими людьми, у которых нет газа и туалета дома, стены падают и гниет крыша. Сейчас там не учат местному языку и местной культуре, она почти погибла. И так во всех местах, куда пришёл сапог "советов".
Sorry, no cookies from me. It's a beautiful art style, but is based on the same old notions of white supremacy. This delusion that black civilizations were all hut dwelling, jungle people that walked around in loincloths is an outdated racist fabrication that I'm sure still placates insecure ego's. The history and savagery of white supremacist ideology might as well have happened yesterday in terms of the entire history of man. What is constantly thrown around is everything after the fall of black civilizations, not the fall itself and the centuries of diplomacy, warfare and resistance that took place.
СССР как и капиталистам было плевать на африканцев, Из Африканских стран из которых ушли европейцы пришли коммунисты за своей выгодой и жизнь простых людей никак не изменилась.
USSR talked about african colonialism, but forgot about russian colonialism in north Asia and middle Asia. Stupid propaganda for stupid people (for western left for example).
Before the collapse of the USSR, the absolute majority of the population of Central Asia voted to preserve the USSR. A strange colonialism, when remote republics lived better than the metropolis. Humanity did not appreciate the role of the USSR.
it is very funny to hear this, considering that Central Asia was the last to leave the union, and even to this day the most support for communist parties is in this region
"friends" more like "do what we tell you or we overturn your ruler and put our dictator and also here's an unequal treaty so give us your oil" i dont know wich kind of friendships you had growing up but that sounds horrible
