In Kiev and Zaporozhye, a spontaneous action is held under the slogan "April 22 Happy Birthday to Grandfather"

34
Graffiti appeared on the streets of Kiev and Zaporizhia, the text of which reads: "April 22 congratulate grandfather on his birthday." The organizers of the action thus decided to remind fellow citizens that on April 22 145 is being celebrated since the birth of a man, with the help of which Ukraine has grown by new territories - Vladimir Ulyanov (Lenin). Portal PolitNavigator publishes an interview with one of the participants of the action:

You cannot directly call people to celebrate the birthday of one of the most prominent political figures of the twentieth century, you can not distribute flyers on the streets, you can not create events in social networks, you can not politicize this date, much less actualize the legacy of Marxism-Leninism. Dangerously. So, what can we actually see when we carefully read the call “to congratulate grandfather on his birthday” on April 22? We will see how a code is being developed, a new speech, when it is veiled, without loud political attributes, people are trying to talk about things that cannot be talked about. This is the beginning of a new silent communication, when words and external attributes cannot speak about their political position, when political disagreement with the regime in Ukraine remains for some time something that lives and grows deep inside a person. Sooner or later, it will be possible not only to speak out loud about this disagreement, but to shout and be active. In the meantime, no one forbade simply silently to come to the center of Kiev, somewhere in Bessarabskaya Square, and put a bunch of flowers with a greeting card to the place where the monument stood, demolished by the rioters.


In Kiev and Zaporozhye, a spontaneous action is held under the slogan "April 22 Happy Birthday to Grandfather"



If several years ago sociological polls in Ukraine showed that the majority of Ukrainian citizens are indifferent to the figure of Lenin, then after the demolition of monuments and the prohibition of communist symbolism, the number of people trying to protect one of the main symbols of the Soviet era has noticeably increased. It turns out that the actions of the radicals who demolish the monuments to Lenin, the monuments to the Soviet soldiers-liberators, plus the actions of indulging the radicals of the authorities adopting the relevant laws, can play the opposite effect in Ukraine.

          The Forbidden fruit is sweet. What is forbidden is always desirable. Therefore, normal people are present in Ukraine. And they are already starting to think about how to live on. Poroshenko and Yaytsenyuk did not have to sit in armchairs for long. The country is in ruins and awash with mattress fascists. Oh, soon they will come across a mouse tears.

      Yes, everything has already happened ... it makes no sense to stick out your civic position, which runs counter to the party in power, because it is fraught with physical destruction ... just according to the grandfather's covenants - underground comrades ...

        This is a bullet in your pocket instead of active resistance. The gut is thin on the active position. The ruin is the land of the Big Dream of the Great Freebie. The leaders, the educators, made it this way.

      Very controversial figure. But undoubtedly - ingenious. But with what sign ... probably still waiting for its assessment. Clearly not a black and white figure. And of course - worthy of monuments. It is impossible to delete such a figure from history.

          Probably, this issue can be resolved by referendum (expensive) or by a survey with a significant coverage of the population. Personally, I am for burying.

            My point of view. It was up to contemporaries to decide whether or not to bury, and we only had to maintain the historical memory of the person who headed our state in one of the most controversial and difficult periods of history.

      It is not necessary to deal with Lenin, but with his own story. This is more important than spaceports and submarines. As long as the people have no understandable history, they have no future. And a people without a future will be destroyed.

      For me, Ulyanov is second after Satan. I will never forgive Nicholas 2 for not destroying this geek.

      It was he with his Jewish associates who destroyed Russian Russia. Although I am calm about the Soviet Union and I think that we left a lot of good there. But this is not thanks, but contrary to Ulyanov.

      but I also do not welcome the demolition of monuments. What no, but this is our story.

      Lenin can be treated differently. But to whom, but dill must be prayed for. This was his idea - the creation of Ukraine self-sufficient in the industrial, energy and industrial sense. The deceased tried to counterbalance Russia so that there wouldn’t work out if the Russian Proletariat was tired of the Power of the Soviets. The Ukrainian Proletariat will be able to balance. Which all Power of the Soviets lived better than in Russia in the domestic and economic sense. But the oats didn’t go to the horse, and for nothing. Go ... all that they got from the USSR, and even damn Lenin. Pigs and beads - Eternal History! True, do not dream .....

      If it weren’t for the bloody villain Ulyanov, Kiev was still a Russian city, the center of Maloros, and Ukrainians would have been hunched over to panov in Polish Galicia. Grandfather Lenin died 90 years ago, and people still die because of his cannibalistic ideas.

      Grandfather Lenin is not to blame for the fact that people like you, idiots - descendants, will drink everything that he did for YOU
