      They feel incredibly weak; even with the propaganda blasting 24/7, they must sense subconsciously that the country is nearing the end of its run, as an international player. So to combat the cognitive dissonance, they are regressing to the last time the reality was consistent with propaganda. It’s the same as the fuss about British passports being blue again… or green, or red. I can’t remember. Just muuuch more acute.

      They are stupid, that’s why.

      Probably some old fuck remembering how he was happy during soviet times… it’s amazing what alcohol during pregnancy does.

      The Soviet Union is russian imperialism that both left-wing and right-wing chauvinists can get behind. They use this flag as a symbol to state their imperialist claim on territory they at one point occupied but no longer do.

      Russia isn’t in a good place right now. 

      They are clinging to old ideals, idealising how things used to be, not realizing that times have changed and the world has moved on. 

      Not to mention, the war in the Ukraine has done an incredible amount of damage. Besides highlighting their own incompetence and awful state of their military, their hemorrhaging money, their killing off younger generations and loosing support because the oligarchs are being hit hard. 

      Russia is an embarrassment.

      looks like someone tried to improvise a Chinese flag but couldn’t quite get the details right

      It’s their security blanket. Couple of years ago they were snickering at their “smart” adds on TV how Europe will freeze in darkness without Russia and now they have to explain their kids why Belgorod is in darkness and why the air raid sirens are going off every day. All they can do – dig out that red rag from the basement and remind to everyone of their “glory times” to cope.

      Low cost, low effort attempt at .. idk intimidation? Posturing? Nostalgia? They run out of Russian federation flags? The possibilities are limitless when dealing with “mysterious Russian soul” combined with overzealous propaganda machine.

      They evidently miss the good old times, pathetically I might add

    11. They are threatening their former colonies with the flag of Russian imperialism 2.0.

    12. Prudent_Link6029 on

      It’s a distress signal – close to collapse and breakup like in 1989

    13. They run out of a good “ideologies” to rally people with. Tried with “poor west” but russia is currently 20 years behind and there’s internet so people don’t buy it. Bad imperialism is sort of inconvenient being that russia is no 1 imperialistic country currently. Radical socialism is also inconvenient as without small business they’ll tank. So they took the ride with sentiment combining it with religion. It really shows how shallow their ideological pond has become.

      Nostalgia. Those were times whe they were more powerful, now they are weak

      Is that an official flag pole related to a border post or just someone living there?

      To quote Master Oogway “You are far too concerned of what once was. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present.”

      The overwhelming sentimentalism of once “great USSR” amid russians will be their ultimate downfall.

      Putin has visions of the old USSR dancing in his head, and the sees his legacy as resurrecting that old Dinosaur.

      genuinely who cares. i know we should be prepared for the worst but russia is a paper tiger at this point. their trolling has gotten so tired and predictable it doesn’t strike fear anymore, it’s just kind of like okay anyway
