The Lithuanian Park Poking Fun At Communism (2001)
Вставка

- Stalinworld (2001) - In a country where ¼ of the population was deported to the Gulag many visitors agree that “people survived that era by having such humour” - and this tongue-in-cheek park proves it.

From an expostulating Lenin to a singing Stalin, this place has it all. One mushroom-businessman-turned-theme-park-entrepreneur has realised his dream, dredging up discarded statues from Lithuania's era of Communism, and displaying them for all to see - along with actors, sketches, and anything else that undermines the past leaders' authority. Although some feel it is unnecessarily reliving a tragic age best left untouched, others see it as a coping mechanism, and proof that the people of Lithuania have survived to laugh another day.

Chanelling the supreme leaders I see
Park is still going strong, according to Google people voted the place 5 stars...Stalin would be proud.
not just 5 stars but it is among most visited parks in lithuania too, even tho media says lithuanians hate ussr and communism, many who lived in those times tells diferent story, just no one with western mind wants that info go public. According to stats around 50 60% of citizens of former ussr states think ussr collapse was bad thing.
@@NostalgicMem0ries damn you facts straight out of your ass arround 5-10% of lithuanians thinks ussr was good lol.
@@NostalgicMem0ries source ?
@@NostalgicMem0ries 60 percent in Russia. Lithuania and other republics are a different story.
@@Debilas2007 in russia its now around 70 80 since putin tsarism is killing country. While in lithuania stats might be lower, but we will never knew real ones, since our government is controlled but west, european union blocks any posts or gatherings about socialism/communism, what i know from majority people i know who lived in those times, that they think life was better back then, especially in 60s 70s
Ahh, early 2000's, when people still chose to speak russian in public TV rather than their own language. We've come long way since then huh
They didn't choose to, what a weird choice that would be to make on their own soil at a time when anti-Russian sentiment was perhaps at an all-time high. My understanding of it makes me bet that they were approached and addressed in broken Russian by the Australian journalist, therefore only those who could answer in Russian made the cut (other than the American guy for obvious reasons). Because back in those days, English language media would only ever send their Russian proficient resident "Moscow correspondent" to cover anything happening in the Baltics, and had a general understanding (erroneous, of course) that only those with knowledge of Russian should go there. Whereas nowadays they just send whoever is up for it directly from the head office and they make their way around interviewing people in English or - worst case scenario - hire a local fixer who acts as an English-Lithuanian direct translator, thus skipping any burdensome 3rd party languages altogether.
What are you talking about dude? Most likely they just were interviewed by russian speaking journalist and happened to be old enough to know russian. In USSR you did not really have much choice.
Lithuania then was like Ukraine now. I wish for the best of Ukraine in the near future and ever!
Pijus 5:26 he is clearly addressed in English. It's just that almost no one knew English back then, so Russian is the only more international language they knew, unfortunately. Perhaps the journalist had an English-Russian translator, who couldn't translate Lithuanian. That's my guess
@@jegeriufanen4415 why is it unfortunate that Russian was the international language
You have to have a sense of humor when bad thing happen. It keeps the gun out of our mouth
Western Countries should take note as they are banning/cancelling anything even slightly offensive. Laughing at horrible things is the only way to be free of them.
Well, at least they're outside enjoying the fine Lithuanian weather. I'm glad they can find humor in all this.
I can't tell if you're joking when calling Lithuanian weather "fine"
@@kebabozaurus yes, I used "fine" meaning the long seasons of cold weather they have, although we have the same "fine weather" here in Pennsylvania. My smile and wave to the good people of Lithuania.
kebabozaurus 30000 I mean the summers are pretty long and hot now (too hot for my taste), so it's not that bad. I actually like having all 4 seasons
With how russia treated lithuanians they should have had a lenin and stalin statues that you spit on
We lived happy
What did russia do to lithuania???
@@designer1397 Occupation, mass deportation and repression
No we didn't want to be a part of the USSR. That's a myth that can be disproven by a quick google search
No, life wasn't good in those times. Almost everyone who lived through them can tell you that. Economy was fucked and any notion of freedom was being brutally silenced
@@Asbestos_ Yes for the opposors but not the people.
@@designer1397 So is it wrong to oppose a foreign occupation?
Millionaire makes giant shitpost about how communism is gay
Tankie losers cry and defecate with their own blood from being but hurt.
I remember visiting this place as a kid a few times. For kids it's a peculiar park to experience a little tiny bit of what our parents and grandparents experienced. For older generations, it's a place to relive the soviet times, even have a nostalgic (that was their childhood then after all) drink of kvass. As a kid I mostly cared about the little zoo, of course.
I am from California and i visited grutas park in 2019
Based and Redpilled
I think its great history park
I whould love to go there
the way she said gulag 😔
2:39 Looks like in front is not Stalin, but Józef Piłsudski
In all honesty, there´s a reason I appretiate the East European people in general. It´s because this, they have a dark sense of humour about the horrors of the past instead going full cancel culture victimization as it´s happening in the west right now with basically anything it´s "offensive".
There's no correlation at all
@@pppLT19 Read again.
On behalf of all Eastern Europeans, I thank you!😃
We literally demolished statues before it was cool lol :D.
2:22 the march is called aviamarsh
These Liths have better soviet jokes than overrated western memes made by degenerates about USSR.
1:19 'I am lithuanian' *speaks russian*
I mean... Yeah?
My grandfather is Lithuanian. Spoke Russian, German, Lithuanian, French and broken English
That's the only international language they knew back then
Nu nes blet jis nemokėjo Anglų kalbos
I serve the Soviet Union. From a gulag!
O well I guess I'm sorry about.Muslim comments not that I don't think it but I do but you are need and they've been messed up so its understandable about.video with em
Прикольно

Laughs in NATO
Now I know why my mother’s family left Lithuania in 1905. Communists were taking over!
You have to be joking right?
bottomtext -
Do you need a history lesson regarding what was happening in Lithuania during 1905?
In 1905 there was no such thing like communism in lithuania
Lithuania was under the Russian empire's control not Soviet.
Soviets came in 1945. The interwar period was the biggest boom for the country. There was no communism in 1905 lol
What a shame. A park for victims of communism: where is the park for victims of capitalism.
When did millions die because of capitalism?
@@Vytas1 Second Boer war, WWI and WWII.
@@gumdum7785 world war 2 happpened because of the west, but the victims were of fascism
@@Vytas1 fascism is the result of evolution of capitalism, a far-right economy policy, characterized by rule of major capitalists
@Moljo firstly, fascists in Italy always supported major capitalists and brutally suppressed workers unions as Italian fascists were dependent on major capitalists money, fascists ruled in interests of a selected few. Secondly, nowadays a few international corporations control the global market and it's not free too.
If it's Lithuania why everyone speaks Russian ?
Because they taught Russian in schools back in the Soviet days. Plus, Lithuania has a sizable Russian community.
this is so not true, they took few videos of mockery, while it is stil lone of most popular parks in lithuania, most who lived under that regime after stalins era ended they know how good life was, only new generation who never even seen those times has biased opinion based on propaganda from west.
Look its you! ->> 🤡
Man that's much more complicated than you think
Seems like you have a biased opinion based on propoganda from the east.
What an asshole don't speak for others,I am from Lithuania,so I know.
