[papakilatube]

It's the Greensboro NC shooting. The Klan shot unarmed protesters from civil rights and leftist groups dead in the streets while the police did nothing. I remember it well. AKA The Greensboro Massacre.

[71ajax74]

Да, раритетик! Помню....

[IndieSlashFilms2011]

People, socialism is the best. Not quite communist, but not quite capitalist.

[kobatv1]

@kmica2008 It is Ku Klux Klan- or Kkk they are talking about, not deluxe clan :)))

[kobatv1]

All good things tend to end eventually... Sad but true...

[kmica2008]

what is this cool deluxe clan they are talking about? i wanna join!!!!

[zepphree]

they have good puski no?

[DaVince21]

The music is actually really catchy if you ask me.

[MarkP0rter]

Can someone tell me what they say about the USA?

[beekneed]

@MarkP0rter In the "License to Kill" part, the guy says "Alabama" and "Ku Klux Klan", and then at 3:33 he says "Greensboro, North Carolina". From there on, at least, it's about the Greensboro Massacre of 1979 where protesters were shot at by the KKK while the police were notably absent. Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark wrote a song about it called "88 Seconds in Greensboro" (for what it's worth). You can look up the Greensboro Massacre on Wikipedia.

[aayooh]

@MarkP0rter only the truth :)

[zepphree]

i would fuck those russian bitches.hard.

[MsMarinaSH]

Да еще и не такое показывали из Южной Африки. А эта перестрелка скорее всего не имела расовой почвы. Какие-нибудь латиноэмигранты разбирались. А фронт-девушка эта из аэробики - Ирина Букреева. Точно помню.

Фром Казахстан.

[vulpix5]

Я и не знал что у нас на телевидении показывали такие ужасы во времена СССР (((. Это ужасно видеть как убивают людей из-за расовых предрассудков(((

[Ottonturk]

@vulpix5 да нет - нормально)

[Earffman]

@vulpix5 Зато теперь у них президент нег...ой афро-американец=)

[AeroMBA]

@vulpix5 Это ужасно, просто так кого-то убивать, но предрасутки тут нипричем, впринцепе убивать неугодных на своих землях это верно, тем более когда эти неугодные портят кровь. Но вообще-то в даной ситуации я всеми конечнастями за то что бы индейцы перебили всех янки, а негры имея свободу валили бы дамой, там есть чем заняться.

[alexeykh]

All of this 'Soviet people could do this & that' only applies to people in the Soviet Union who were party members. Sure, they could go on vacation & away to a health spa. But what cost to the rest & even to their own consciences.

[MCSimRUS]

Уау, как эта гимнастика возбуждает!

[VOLTRON507]

Thumbs up if you learned to count 1 - 2 - 3 in Russian with this video!

[4ingP]

@VOLTRON507 Thumbs down if we already knew how?

[VOLTRON507]

@4ingP hahaha... yeah, could be.

[AnimusPipboy]

At least there wasn't any racism in the soviet union lol

[5up3rk1w1]

@AnimusPipboy I don't know which Soviet Union you're talking about, but it was and still is the most xenophobic country in the world! You're an idiot to believe that racism only affects SOME countries. It exists everywhere!

[AnimusPipboy]

@5up3rk1w1 Hey moron i grow in ex communist country so dont talk about things that you dont you will never understand ok ? It's true that the racism is everywhere but look USA and look at you own country and tell me where have more racism.and sir you are gay !!!

[MrJacMac1986]

Back in 1986 i picked up a Havana Cuba AM radio station and heard Synchronicity by The Police. Guess Fidel Castro was trying propoganda to make Cuba sound interesting."Come to Cuba we rock"

[theraver2020]

I think the Soviets actually envied the American life when they seen the documentary

[Neptuneman07]

I bet the music came from Western Europe, as NRG and Italio Disco was huge in USSR.

[MegaTessaC]

Wow, I never knew that the soviet union has great music

[5up3rk1w1]

@MegaTessaC It doesn't

[ThunderbirdTV1]

omg elena is soooooooooo hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[harris3693]

@ThunderbirdTV1 Well, u should have not been so against commies as they helped keep their women lookin' hot as hell!!!!

[Tokopol]

I must find that music.

[Wolfboy183]

i dont get why communist states were so afraid of being criticized. I live in BC and we talk trash about the provincial government all the time, and they are still in power screwing us over. :D

[jimgravesus]

Russians are some of the most xenophobic, racist, sexist and intolerant people on earth. If you're black and you walk into a working class bar in Moscow you're taking your life in your hands. There won't be any press outrage. The consensus between the patrons, cops and government is that sambo should never have been there.

Mass murder and oppression are Russian legacies; from the Czars to the Soviets.

We Americans aren't perfect but life has much more value here.

[Huilton83]

@jimgravesus

we love you nigra!

[Jaabyourface]

@jimgravesus finally, someoone who gets it!

If you're black, you're must sit on a palm tree and shut up.

80s chicks with big tits. something we dont see alot nowadays, look more appealing than scabby ugly lady gagas

[emlodik]

If I may correct the uploader... The title correctly translates as "License for Violence," NOT "License to Kill."

[kjckjckjckjc]

I didn't know Soviet Union had colour TV, coloured clothes, and big boob chicks

[ivanmendoza93]

Why I am not surprised that you did not know?..

[SMGJohn]

Argh Soviet musics, why couldn't Soviet still exist hell I move right in!

[madleon81]

the titles n all like the one we had on Indian national tv...but boy never those chics :-( why didnt our socialists pick that !

[BushcraftBloke]

Ah, the tune at the very beginning is "Follow The Brightest Star" by Voyage.

That girl in the exercise programme is hot!

[coshgr]

damn! I remember this show! this is the hotest, sexiest shit soviet teens ever seen!

[coshgr]

i'm talking 'bout this «RITMIKA»

[chabba77]

The music in these Soviet exercise videos is contagious. I also seem to remember a movie where these computer monitors were somehow picking up Russian TV, which happened to be an exercise show. Anyone know what movie that was?

[crazyvaclav]

wouldn't be "jumpin' jack flash" would it? Whoopi Goldberg? maybe

[blackeyedjim]

Incredible. I didn't think "20 Minute Workout" was copied anywhere else in the world. You know...the workout show that doesn't work, but you don't give a damn, The one in the pink is obviously chewing up the scene, while the poor guy in the yellow probably doesn't realize how gay he looks. Oh well...in communist

Russia, anything's possible with a gun to your head. I would love to see more of these Soviet videos, if there are any to be had. And yes, Gabriel, she is pretty hot.

[CamaradaGabriel]

OMG This woman is soo hot!! I'm in luv with soviet russia!!

[BVargas78]

they should of kept economy state owned but allowed a free press and freedom of speech, but otherwise the system remains similar and former soviet people would of been better off today

[danielshacalis]

What they should have done is allow small scale operations to be private and have Banks and only key sectors in public hands. That lays foundation for transitional period

[freakyfadge]

@BVargas78

should HAVE, bitch

[BVargas78]

@freakyfadge suck it! i'll kick you in the nuts!

[ianforallseasons]

@BVargas78 The problem is no matter how immoral or inequitable a free market may seem, it is the most efficient way of producing and distributing goods and services. That is why the world economy follows a capitalist model, instead of a form of central planning.

[BVargas78]

@ianforallseasons It is more dynamic, i'll give it that, but is it sustainable? A trend of globalisation, is production going to developing countries were costs are lower, and the rise of the post industrial society were the service industry becomes a big employer, helping to make up for having lost the industrial related jobs.

I'm skeptical as to whether this set up will ever resolve the big problem of unemployment, if it worsens it could contribute to the rise of political extremes.

[garett69]

@BVargas78 You can't have free press when the state controls the economy. Even if the press were the one industry allowed to be private, they would still have to make sure they don't piss of the state, who provides their raw materials, supplies and owns 100% of the land where they conduct their journalism. A state controlled economy is a dictatorship by definition. It means that all property and all production are owned by the state. In such a system free press and free speech are impossible.

[BigRickDouglas1]

@garett69 even though the state is controlled by the people, unlike the 'freedom' we have now where the state is all but dead and corporations that care about nothing but profit control us.

[kurum2007]

I used to think that the Soviets had it bad. They had bad cars and bad hamburgers but at least they had perky sweet women like Elena in the video. Americans have better cola and cash for clunkers cars but also have bankruptsy and fat foul mouthed women. I'd trade in a noisy clunker for Elena any day.

[dasdasdus]

@kurum2007

they had another good think free hospital care and schools.

[rukieishere]

@kurum2007 actually Our cars where very good one car would last many years even now it would work like new

[ThePackers123]

@kurum2007 We never used to until they made fat a disability in the 90's. Before that most of our women were skinny.

[hilby]

@kurum2007 Yeah those were ideal days. How I'd like to get my hands on one of their hard working Russian men who did more than sit on their fat ass all day on Youtube whining because no American woman would ever want to have to listen to so much hot air.

[olvoro11]

@hilby Really? Thats your description of americans? Nothing about the fact that america was more advanced, more civilised and was actually governed by human being chosen by the people? Sit in their fat asses? Wow, then it must have been angel that simply chose to go down to earth and make america the world economic leader!

[hilby]

@olvoro11 No, you missed the point of my joke. I was making fun of American men who whine on and on about how horrible all American women are; the American men who think all American women are so horrible just because they couldn't get a date to the prom back in high school.

[olvoro11]

@hilby oh sorry bra

[olvoro11]

@kurum2007 Yeah, bankruptsy. But there was also a chance to get rich, an incentive to work. None of which existed in the USSR

[drav1dan]

@kurum2007: Hahahaha dream on. Women like Elena were reserved for communist party bosses. The average Russian had to make do with a fat babushka or drown his sorrows in vodka.

[kurum2007]

@drav1dan kind of like how the best babes in the USA are reserved for the financiers and media moguls.

[5up3rk1w1]

@kurum2007 Haha, what part of America you looking in? Soviet union had just as many if not more crusty women. Bankruptsy? hahaha, so what happened to the Soviet Union then? And you can keep Elena, she's like 60 isn't she?

[Tokopol]

@kurum2007 Having her is preferable to cars and hamburgers. Thanks to too much of the latter two and not enough of Elena, America is riddled with diabetes and stonewalling high-speed rail because they'd rather use cars as glorified wheelchairs.

[kobatv1]

@kurum2007

I used to live is USSR, it is one of the best time I remember. It was cool and great! There were bad things too, like closed borders and too much government control, but if we take a look at US government now, they over-did USSR. American people are just starting to live like USSR. Instead of breaking down Soviet Union into pieces, they should have it modified for a better model. USSR had the BEST education system, best health systems (like it is in Canada now), economy was stable

[MarkP0rter]

@kobatv1 why did the USSR break down then / why doesn't it exist anymore?

[debranov]

@MarkP0rter I blame it on the a a a-a-a aalcohol

[Peter1Europe]

@kobatv1 Crackhead ?

[kobatv1]

@Peter1Europe

What'cha want?

[IndieSlashFilms2011]

@kobatv1 So your saying that America, the capitalist democracy, lives like the USSR, the communist dictatorship

[kobatv1]

@IndieSlashFilms2011

Well, there's clear analogy. At least when you watch ABC news or CNN (most US news) it's pure resemblance to former soviet news program "Vremya". It is not a secret that US propaganda machine works very hard through all sorts of media nation wide and abroad. I don't know how it is felt from within, but from the European point of view America is far too away from Democracy.

[MosheZimmerman]

@kobatv1 there's no such thing as "the European point of view" - every country is different! if you take Italy for instance you'll get all the corrution, protectionism, and mafia-style networking - just like modern russia; but at the same time italy's got a very good education and medical care - so there're pros and cons to everything. the same goes for US - it isn't perfect. yet. but all the modern countries in europe and america are doing so much better now than back then in USSR.

[kobatv1]

@MosheZimmerman Yes, and I guess you should also remember and don't forget that USSR was probably the the only place on earth where Hebrews were not prosecuted. During the world war II and even before and after, Hebrews were given shelter and care. There was no racism, antisemitism and national discrimination, which was quite typical for that period elsewhere. USSR was a tolerant multinational union. Sure, it had its minuses too.

[LuDux]

@kobatv1 Soviet Union was best prison in the world. Also Soviet microchips were biggest microschips in the world

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 Huh??? No antisemitism in the USSR??? I have never laughed so hard in my life! :) I personally grew up in a very antisemitic family. To this day - almost 20 years later - I'm not sure my mom got over me marrying a Jewish girl. :) Everybody around me despised Jews and referred to them exclusively by the derogatory terms. On the government level there was plenty persecution as well. If you were a Jew you were not allowed to be in charge of any factory, especially military production.

[kobatv1]

@Shmalentine

What part of the USSR was that? I mean in Georgia it was like a heaven. I remember how they cried when they left for Israel. There is a huge Jewish community till today. and they feel and always felt great and safe in Georgia, so please do not ignore it.

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 All over Ukraine and Russia. I live in the States now and I am surrounded by ex-soviet Jews who were persecuted constantly, which is why they left. Nobody I know is from Georgia, so I can't comment on antisemitism there but I know there were plenty of altercations between Georgians and Russians, or Georgians and Azerbaijanis. So the whole national equality and tolerance existed only on paper, and the great life in the USSR was a fairy tale.

[kobatv1]

@Shmalentine

Georgians and Russian - Yes, Georgians and Azerbajan - No. Only in Georgia you will find Churches, Mosques and Synagogues side by side ... and it comes form long long time ago. That's why Georgian and Russian languages are so widely spread in Israel. There is a Georgian language channel for expats on YES paytv platform, and most of YES tv channels come with Russian soundtracks. Greats Israeli movie maker Dover Kosashvili made couple of award winning movies in Georgian.

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 I've heard about plenty of conflicts between Georgians and Azers. But I wasn't there so I'm not going to comment. Churches and Synagogues side by side means nothing. It's the same in Ukraine and Russia, and yet did not prevent persecution of Jews. All I know is that every nation within USSR though they were the best and the rest were beneath them. There were no "brotherhood of men". Just look at the Soviet Army. Almost as bad as a prison - national groups fighting other national groups.

[kobatv1]

@Shmalentine

That is untrue :)) Don't try to create a conflict with these friendly nations :). You've gotta be confusing it Azers and Armenians and Turks, but that is a very sensitive issue, so better leave it. As for Georgians, We have great friendly relationship with Azers, Armenians, Turks - Even with Russian People (but hate the Ru. government, but Russian's are not happy with their gov. either). So your "accusations" seem a bit humiliating.

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 I'm not trying to create a conflict (not that it's possible through a youtube comment), besides I said I wasn't there and am not going to comment. Actually I take it back. In college I knew an Azer who was saying the most foul things about Georgians (as well as Armenians). He was also very proud of his supposedly very large cock. As for Russians, I've heard plenty of anti-Georgian talk when I lived in Moscow. Please, in USSR every nation generally hated Russians, and they reciprocated.

[kobatv1]

@Shmalentine  I've never heard such things, even though I am a very social person with hundreds of friends of all the nations you have mentioned, I've never heard such hatred and stupidity from any of them (except Azeri - Armenian thing ). And again, there are good and bad everywhere and it comes down to where you socialize. May I ask where did you live in USSR? Because concerts where common thing in Georgi and your words came as surprise.

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 Rock concerts? As in heavy metal? I doubt it. But I don't know. Where I lived - in Kiev - even the very word "rock" was controversial until '85 or so. Gorbachev loosened a lot of things but not completely. So you could have rock concerts but you could not scream at them. You had to sit in your seat and politely clap. I remember when Uriah Heap came to Moscow - it was the first real band from overseas. There were almost as many cops as the audience. And you couldn't get up from your seat

[Shmalentine]

@Shmalentine Uriah HeEp - sorry. :)

[kobatv1]

@Shmalentine

And again was it much different in UK and USA in 50's per say when Rock music originated. It was not welcomed at all by posh British society, and I can't avoid mentioning rock musical "Hair" - Rage against the puritanism, that salutes human freedom and each and every individuals right to express themselves. This is the path western countries had 50 years ago, this is the path some lucky ex-soviet countries are going now. I don't really like rock anyway :))

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 Of course it was different! There is a huge difference between not welcoming certain music and arresting people at concerts or banning the concerts all together. Bottom line is my life and the lives of people around me in the USSR was awful (even though we may not have realized it at the time). I'm glad the USSR is gone - good riddance. You may have enjoyed your life under the communist party. I didn't.

OK, I've had enough of this discussion. Back to my blissful life in the US now. :)

[TheCentralServices]

@MosheZimmerman Has the US stil the KKK?

[halloranedward]

@kobatv1 of course there was also the slavery, the brutal torture, the brainwashing, and the constant desperate terror that has given communism it's world wide reputation for being one of the most horrific human atrocities in history, but apart from that it was great. yea, the education was great.

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 I don't know in which universe your USSR existed. The one I lived in was not that great. And it was NEVER cool. Nobody (except the top communist party members) had any money, and even with the money you had you couldn't buy anything. Innovation was not properly rewarded. Creativity was stifled. There was little or no incentive to do anything. The media was lame and boring. There was not enough living space. Education was solid but but boring with lots of fluff in it. It SUCKED!!!

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 I've been to Georgia in the 80's (83-84 I think). It was just as bad as anywhere else in the USSR. Nothing in stores, typical horrible soviet service, packed public transportation... The dorm we were staying in was overrun by foot-long rats. Yeah, fun.

[kobatv1]

@Shmalentine

Same applies to every modern city even these days. I've seen trash hostel all over EU. You have to pick wisely. As a general rule of thumb you can't expect a lot from a hostel. In General 70's and 80's were like best years in Soviet History.

[Shmalentine]

@kobatv1 Since those are the years I've spent in Soviet Union I can confidently say they sucked ass. The Gorbachev era was actually better in terms of social life but economically it was even worse than before. And even the social aspect was pretty horrible. I was arrested for screaming at a ROCK CONCERT! Obviously prior to '87 there were no such thing as rock concerts, so that was an improvement, but clearly not enough. 90's were better (after the USSR was no more). And then I moved to the US.

[RicaeAndrews]

@kobatv1 They were planning to create the union into a decentralised group of soviet states.

[Kyuuqsoft]

@kobatv1 in canada where i lived most of them i believe is unemployed.

Good on Gorbachev to give the Soviet Union Freedom, it's ashame for Belarus, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan basically all the stans of the soviet union are now under dictatorship but Ukraine and Russia are the only good ones, the rest suck.

[yinyuanredline]

Is there the whole clip of the "Rhythm?"

[somedudeinva]

If they want people to believe that an average day in the US is KKK rallies and mass shootings, they probably should remove the Russian cars mixed in with the American ones, or the "news van" with Russian writing on it.

[Pentymix]

Well, american propaganda made us believe worse things about The russian people, so, dont complain pal, that was the cold war at its best .

[WarVideo]

Like what?

[Pentymix]

like 40 years of brainwashing, bombing us with anti communist propaganda, in the movies, the media, everywhere, making us think everything in russia was necessarily bad, the ussr was "the evil empire", every russian was like stalin, they´re compulsive vodka drinkers, calling ourselves the "free world" while supporting bloody dictatorships on different sides of the world, thats what i call a real shame.

[WarVideo]

Please brainwashing? Dont exagerate and set up straw men. Communism is evil and Russia is backwards and has always been backwards. Now itsnot communism in russia,but another from of collectivism, nationalism, that we have to worry about.

[Pentymix]

You clearly anti russian for i can see, well, i think we do have that form of collectivism in every country in the world, or how would you call that nationalism in china, the multiple islamic dictatorships in the middle east, some western europe countries,israel or even the united states? Communism is a wonderful idea that was very bad applied, so plz, dont think communism = torture, dictatorship and evilness and capitalism= democracy, free speech and pink clouds.

[bolajon]

That is pretty much true though? :-p (vodka drinkers ha ha ha)

Wow! That is daily life in Alabama! The cross burnins, the KKK hoe downs. Ahhh, memories . . .

From Alabama married to a former Soviet so I am getting a kick out of these comments

[Pentymix]

i dunno where u from or if you ever were to the ussr, but i was and so were my parents and, trust me on this, the reality had nothing to do.

[WarVideo]

Read "We the Living", by Ayn Rand.

[Optimusnorm]

Indeed there were stereotypes on both sides...when all along the enemies were in the middle east haha

[gherinquad]

@somedudeinva Actually that KKK rally and shooting really did happen. It's called the Greensboro Massacre and happened in 1979.

[SpottedHyaena80]

OMG that woman is AMAZING!!!

[kurum2007]

Soviet TV doesn't appear to have been great but it had some good points, like that girl. Looking up the Russian Alphabet in wikipedia, I make her name to be Elena Bukreeva. I wonder where she is now. How did she fare through all the dislocation of the past 2decades? Does anybody know?

[dpbrannan]

She burned up in a failed rocket launch in 1988. ;oD

[SpottedHyaena80]

You know what? I think i've just found her in Facebook!

[liono4407]

Yeah I think that is her she looks old enough.
