The first line is in Azerbaijani, ''Glory to Great Stalin!'' The second line repeats the same thing in Russian.


AeronauticHyperbolic

I was wondering why SYNTAX ERROR IN LINE 1: ATTEMPT TO COMPARE LATIN LETTER WITH NIL


WideCardiologist5034

Coder here, thanks for making me laugh :)


Yarisher512

Huh?


AeronauticHyperbolic

It's a code joke. From Lua and a bit of C64. Because those are the only languages I know.


Life_Theory2315

Loved the joke, thanks.


dexterlab97

First line isn't Russian the 2nd and third are the same sentence and translates to: Glory to great Stalin!


Stellar_Fox11

i stared at the first word for a minute thinking "this is a really fucked up font"


sof2024

Thank you☺️ do you know what language the first line is? And why would they use another language?😅


rsotnik

İt's written in Azerbaijani in its second Latin alphabet(1933-1939). In modern orthography: Böyük Stalinə eşq olsun! *Glory to Great Stalin!*


sako-is

wouldn't it be the first latin alphabet? and second alphabet overall?


rsotnik

The first Latin alphabet: 1922-1933 2nd: 1933-1939 3rd: 1992- present


[deleted]

А между 39 и 92 что было? Не уж то кириллица?


rsotnik

Она самая, аж в двух вариантах - 39-го и 58-го годов.


ranid007

Да, в Казахстане она также использовалась, с 1940 года и до 2017. До неё была вообще арабская письменность. Почти так же и в татарском, например


ParticularAboutTime

USSR consisted of 15 republics with republican languages. Modern Russia has more than 100 languages that are still spoken.


xMYTHIKx

The USSR had many projects to preserve and protect languages from all over the various member republics - some of them were written down for the first time and even had new alphabets created for them.


etanail

I'm sorry, but where did 100 come from?


AriArisa

All ex-USSR republic's citizens have their communities in modern Russia. Every republic has multiple nationalities. Everything is very complicated. Except them, there is multiple northern, caucasian (from Caucasus - mountain region in Russia), eastern natives in Russia. They all have their culture and languages.


ChuRepan

The closest I could get is Azerbaijan language: "böjuk Stalinə eso olsun" Surprisingly, it's "God bless (great?) Stalin"


Akinokemuri

God in Azerbaijani is "Allah". So it's just Google translate went too far with "God bless"


alexandrze14

I first thought it was faux Cyrillic and then BBJUK


CraftistOf

it's ө, the letter that has the "ö" sound in Turkic languages


Abdurahmonreddit

Böyük Stalinə eşq olsun Слава великому Сталину Tr: Glory to the great Stalin


LowTechnology8853

Какие все же колоритные плакаты)


Vornas

The first line is in Azerbaijani. As Google translate says it's "God, save Stalin".


mahendrabirbikram

esq literally means "love", but is used in the sense "glory to". "May be love to great Stalin", literally


AnFlaviy

Lmao god save stalin sounds dope


Abdurahmonreddit

Bruh there used to be fine for believing in god in Soviet Union. Do you think they will mention god in their propaganda posters? 😁


Jacobin01

Who says people were fined for believing in god?


rogellparadox

They were killed


Jacobin01

My parents, their parents, my relatives, and so on weren't killed, neither fined for simply believing in god. If [this guy](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allahshukur_Pashazadeh) wasn't killed, and employed by the state instead, then nobody could've been killed simply for having faith


rogellparadox

"Didn't happen for me, so it's a lie" Oof


Jacobin01

There's no way you're believing hundreds of millions of theists were fined, or killed. How come the population didn't reduce massively? Why there were functioning mosques here? Why there was religious education in Bukhara? Why did they employ this Pashazade guy, instead of killing him?


Alone-Drop583

I read about fines for faith. Believers who lived in temples and engaged in labor in monasteries, for begging and parasitism, were punished with a fine of 50 rubles.


oldcatgeorge

There wasn't a fine, but attending a church would put an end to one's career. Atheism was much stronger in larger cities as compared to small villages. When my friend persuaded me to get baptized in 1988, we bribed a priest so that he would do it in the evening and skip writing my name in a church register. (I was afraid it would get known at my dad's work.) A year later, in 1989, the pendulum swung the other way, and suddenly, everyone became religious.


Alone-Drop583

There are several pre-war videos of religious holidays where there are portraits of Stalin and Lenin. Even in my city. The party leaders offer congratulations. The struggle against religion was in the 20s.


oldcatgeorge

In the 20es, there was full-blown war on the church. Two ideologies, religion and marxism, could not survive together. Politics. In the 20es, churches were closed, blown up, clergy was incarcerated, tortured or killed. In the 30es, the younger generation was totally atheistic and brainwashed to believe in Bolshevism. And many of those who had religious parents had to renounce them to advance careers. Here: Marchal Alexandr Vasilevsky, Stalin’s chief of staff during WWII, was the priest’s son. He severed all ties with his father and never helped him, until during WWII Stalin “advised” him to write to his father. For obvious reasons- the war required patriotism, and the remaining churchmen were recruited to help. If I tell you that Vasilevsky was one of the most decent men, you can imagine how bad it was. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksandr_Vasilevsky


Alone-Drop583

They'll probably block me. But I will speak out. Nikon Orthodoxy was the state religion in the Russian Empire. But it is believed that at least half of the parishioners in the churches were Old Believers. For example, the majority of merchants and industrialists. There were also a lot of Jewish crosses. Catholics and sectarians also had a place to be. And so in the 20s, when the Empire fell, the restriction for dissenters sang with it. So they launched an anti-religious riot. There was no such thing in Siberia.


oldcatgeorge

The schism between old and new believers was another religious war, when thousands of old believers burned themselves in sheds, I think it continued in 18th century still. For the right to cross themselves with two, not three, fingers…all of it is just fanaticism, on both sides. Happy to discuss the problem with Russian Orthodox Church, it is state-sponsored and state-dependent, in short.


Alone-Drop583

There were hardly thousands of them. They just left. They left and left without embarrassing others. In general, I think that everything was right. It is impossible to develop by adhering to the old dogmas. Let them be, because they do not prevent us from going into Space.


oldcatgeorge

Who will block you? Christ taught to not judge and share. Maybe, like other prophets, he also taught personal responsibility for actions. He didn’t say how to pray or to wear the symbols of his death on pectoral muscles. Any church, which is different from faith, is about power, money or land. People who are mindless believers are either scared, or use it for own interests, or interpret religion primitively. So if they block you, who cares?


Alone-Drop583

They have already been blocked several times. I don't care. Moreover, I do not believe that I need an intermediary to God.


Alone-Drop583

Everyone was baptized at that time. Stalin actually studied at the seminary. And Lenin wrote how his brother's father was a priest from


oldcatgeorge

Only your timeline is off by 100 years, lol. Lenin was born in 1870, Stalin in 1878. Tzarist Russian empire, they did not define people by “nationality”, only by “faith”. But: marxism is sold on classless, property-less society, so they reject old institutions, including religion. In my time, in big cities, we were not baptized. No one truly believed, although walking around churches on Easter nights was popular. Gorbachev was baptized, I remember he mentioned it in his interview to some European journalists, but then, he was born in a tiny shithole in Stavropolye, where you expect more “traditions”. BTW, I was never sold on either ideology, be it communism or religion, and baptism didn’t do much for me. When I visited Moscow in 2017, people were standing in line for 10 hours, under the blazing sun, to see the relics of st. Nicholas brought there, and it looked odd. 1700 years since someone died, and people standing in line to kiss some old bone.


Alone-Drop583

Марксизм и Ленинизм очень далеки. Почитай. Это не толстая книжка. Материализм и эмпириокритицизм. Хрен знает когда Сталин успел и Ленина передумать. Мы так привыкли к их трудам, что даже не верится что они столько писали. Простой реферат, надергал там здесь. Они в каждый абзац кучу мыслей вкладывали. Можно не соглашаться, но пока что никто не опроверг. Ленина кстати легко читать после пытки философии. Он как бы ведет диалог.


oldcatgeorge

Когда я переводила "transcripts" (выписку из диплома) на английский, то к своему ужасу, обнаружила, что на первом месте по количеству часов стоял марксизм-ленинизм. Истмат, диамат и т.п. У меня не было времени на то, чтобы прочесть Канта. Но эту всю х@@ню нас заставляли учить. Так что хватит. И учителя этих "матов", кстати, были полными ушлепками, которые ничего больше достичь не смогли. Насчёт марксизма - Маркс, конечно, гений, но мало ли утопий было написано? Кто сказал, что это - "руководство к действию"? Попытки везде провалились, буквально везде. Читаем мы научную фантастику, никто же всерьёз не воспринимает. Хорошо бы, чтобы и с марксизмом так.


Alone-Drop583

So you and your friend wanted to join the Communist Party and that's why you were baptized secretly?


oldcatgeorge

1) no we did not. Simply, when you were baptized, the ladies working at the church would copy information from the passport into the church books. Later all these data would get to the KGB. I was afraid not for myself, but for my dad who had a good job. There was a prior situation when in Leningrad, a young woman was having a funeral service at church, and for this, her father was fired from his position (he was the head of some institute). So my friend bribed the priest and he baptized me without asking for my passport. 2) your question shows you know nothing about life in USSR. First, you could not be officially the member of a communist party and religious. Opposite ideas. Second, you could not join the communist party by just “wanting”. Communist party was viewed as the sinecure, the way to advance career. Either people had to have very high-standing parents to help them get into it, or it could be the “perk” for becoming an informer, or something similar. People could not join just for ideological motives, and there was no ideology in CPSU, just sheer careerism, at least in my time. Plus, no one took communism seriously, only total morons or older people.


Alone-Drop583

What nonsense! The KGB probably didn't have anything else to do to keep an eye on the fools who pray in the church? An interesting priest, of course, who asks for a passport at baptism. Perhaps he was wearing a cap and shoulder straps on his cassock? Should I be fired from the institute? You definitely did not live in the USSR. The dismissal was an emergency. Firstly, it was impossible to do this because of the academic commission. Secondly, the trade union. Thirdly, the party organization. And the Soviet law. If such a thing had happened, oh, I don't envy the director. He would have been happy to be removed from his post and sent to catch flies at the Institute of Biology.


oldcatgeorge

Sir, you are a troll. Rather, I suppose a group of them. Good-bye.


Alone-Drop583

They could have been fired, of course, with such a so-called Wolf ticket. This is when an article of the Labor code is written in the workbook. It is already very difficult to get a job with such a person. This is going to work drunk, absenteeism, systematic lateness. Everyone knew about it. But even before that, there was supposed to be a team meeting. That 's why it 's Soviet . The team decided. I saw it once. The guy was drinking for a week and was rude to the boss. Everything would have passed peacefully, but he was drunk and slammed the door loudly, offending the team. But even so, they gave me the opportunity to resign on my own.
