I was literally a baby, what was I supposed to do? Googoo gaga at them?

I have a childhood memory of my parents and grandparents huddled around the TV watching coverage of the how the USSR was dissolving, so I guess it was around Christmas 1991. I kept trying to get my dad to look at a toy or something, then he said something like "not now, this is important." I asked "what is it?"

He said something like "This means there's not gonna be fighting in the world anymore. All the Russians are dying." And for years I literally thought America had stopped an alien invasion or something (I was a dumb kid and had no idea what the USSR was until I was like 10)

I was calling my parents libs the whole time it was happening but they just thought I was hungry for some reason, or would change my diaper

I was about 6 months old and busy exploring the house despite my parents attempts to cage me.

I was like... 2.

I see exactly what you're doing lol lmao even don't even try I definitely wasn't exactly 3 year and 224 days old when it happened. Nope, not at all, good try though.

I once saw an alleged """leftist""" say that communism was better off now that the USSR wasn't around to split the left.

So I guess I let it dissolve to help global communism because now we have nothing to argue about

i would have done something but i was too busy fighting against the sandanistas for the cia

I was less than a week old when it happened.

I was too busy stopping the disolution of the other AES states. You really think it was only the USSR that was supposed to dissolve in 1991?

no more half measures walter

I'm pretty sure I said 'no' at some point during the day the USSR fell so I did my part.

was busy eating mud

Look, what could I, a humble diplomatic attaché assigned to the US embassy in Moscow, have done at the time to stop it?

This website ~~needs age verification so that we~~ can ban everybody ~~who was alive before the dissolution of the USSR~~

If you were born in '88 then you're no comrade of mine

FBI data gathering op right here ☝️

Listen, I would have, but Barney provided insufficient light arms training. You can't crush the rising tide of reaction with hugs and clean up labor equity unfortunately.

I did it. I was there and drove a stake into the corpse of Lenin, thus dissolving the Soviet Union.

I was trying my shoes. It took me a while at that time.
