    Damn, I remember when we had a new history teacher in the 10th grade. A woman about 40 years old, not to say that she was a bad person, but damn, I remember how in social studies and history lessons she told us about Putin’s authoritarian regime and the totalitarian USSR. That Russian policy is imperialist (in particular, as an example, the military operation in Syria) and equating Soviet pioneers with the Hitler Youth.

    I don’t want to say that there is no propaganda in Russia, especially in the field of education, but in which country there is no propaganda? From the stories of comrades from Western countries, I got the impression that they also have propaganda in their schools, but people like the one who posted this video will not tell about it.

      Ahhh, the Soviet Pioneers, an organization where you would learn to swim, camp, track, tie knots, make friends, and ensure that all children no matter of family wealth, could go to summer camp.

      Compared to the Hitler Youth, where you learned how to operate weapons systems, grenades, march in formation, beat the weakest member of your group to death, then be immediately be drafted for war at 18. What a lovely organization.
