It is not surprising that many of the bourgeois leaders of Russia
plan to take down statues of V. I. Lenin. These folks constantly want to imitate
the west. By now most of the people in
the Soviet Union are getting used to the bourgeois
gangster parties that run their affairs.
Actually removing all the statues will be like trying to
remove historical time pieces from the country. But to be western is to
constantly rewrite history and emphasizing that which is important to the
present leadership.
According to RT:
"Memorials to such “a
controversial figure” should be re-located in museums or alleys with statues of
other historic persons, suggested the author of the initiative,
Liberal-Democratic party (LDPR) Deputy Aleksandr Kurdyumov....."
So they are not just
going to destroy everything. But removing all the statues is still a sad state
of affair.
"The time has come to get rid
of Lenin’s “stranglehold” and leave only monuments that are considered true
masterpieces of art and only in those places where local population want to see
them, the LDPR lawmaker insists....
There no other memorials but to
Lenin in Russian towns and that is “unfair” to other outstanding
personalities – such as Peter the Great, General Aleksandr Suvorov, Tsar
Ivan the Terrible and others."
All the above personalities are connected to the imperial
and royal past. All of those people were either tyrants or working for tyrants.
I guess the Liberal-Democratic Party is interested in moving past the
capitalist past all the way to feudalism. Once again we see lots of people
turning history backward. Forward thinking leaders are few and far between,
both in Russia
and other parts of the world, today.
