Nowadays almost noone speaks like that: the speech is very polite and word "comrade" isn't used at all. And you rarely hear someone say other person's father's name when that someone is speaking to that person.
See some movies ("Brat", "Brat 2", "Boj s tenju", "Brigada" etc) to get the impression how Russian is spoken by Russian (without "s").
These videos are so intriguing--I really liked the song at the end of this one, although I cannot yet understand the lyrics. I find the images of soviet era propaganda so fascinating; in San Francisco I used to attend a goth club that sometimes used these images on their flyers to advertise the club nights...I even recognize one or two them! Thanks for posting these videos!
you are so generous to have done all this work putting this series on for people to learn russian. thank you.
