He went outside for a smoke. On his way back to his room, he stopped at the desk and said 'Please send a pot of tea up to room 23.'

The two drunks were still being loud. The third man went in, looked at them, then leaned over to the light socket 'Comrade Major, please send some tea to my room.'

The other men thought this was hilarious...until there was a knock on the door, and a waiter with a pot of tea. They became completely silent, and the third man fell asleep.

When he woke up in the morning, he was alone. He went to the front desk, and asked where his roommates were.

'Well, the KGB came this morning and took them away.'

The man was horrified 'why did they spare me?!?'

the Soviet Union was a REGIME that KILLED its own people, murdered MILLIONS. and because the Soviet Union just happened to be on the winning side of the WW2 (oh and don't forget the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact) doesn't mean it should be treated any differently.

then you see the modern russians (not some elderly people but young 20+ who have access to the internet) — the arists\musicians\game devs etc and what do they do? they WORSHIP it, trying to make it only about the aestetics and erasing the fact of what really happened during that period

it's literally what russia is doing right now — tries to bring the Soviet Union back, and russian youth support it
