Honestly i'm pretty sure it is. I've seen quite a few Soviet cartoons that look exactly like that, and at the end of this clip they use the exact same sound effects I've heard in other Soviet cartoons. If it's not a real Soviet cartoon, it's a damn good impression of one.
Yes, it is. It is glass harmonica, a very beautiful movie about the consequences of greed and power abuse. Also later used by turkish group mör ve ötesi for thaeir song uyan
Yea, though it's only like 24 minutes long if not less, it was also banned in the ussr for quite some time as it could be viewed as anti-soviet censorship
My mom has probably her oldest picture of my dad stuck at some 4.35 billion years from now. I mean, it’s pretty sweet but I would like to try and fix that for her if the phone didn’t crash every single time.
I wouldn't be suprised if they're mostly bots. As the recent Russian server attacks taught us, the world might be less crazy than it first appears. Lots of astroturfing.
As a Tunisian, I can tell you, people are diverse AF there. You can find people with blue eyes and yet are as Tunisian as can be. Hell, I'm white AF though that's cause I'm part Russo-Tatar.
I know why people have this idea of what we look like, but also I do not understand it in the slightest.
Its because people think land connects, when for thousands of years it was water. They look at a map and think Italy is Closer to germany, not understanding that before the invention of Trains the Mediterranean was the highway, and people had exchanged culturally for thousands of years around the Mediterranean.
While you are definitely correct about the fact that Mediterranean was the ancient highway, you sort of left out the fact that for the most of history, It was controlled by European/Roman powers (which is why the Romans called it Mare Nostrum= Our Sea). Meaning that the Europeans were able to transfer a lot more of their "culture" and genes to the south and east o Mediterranean than vice-versa. It was not so much an equal trade, more like land theft (Cartago and Egypt, while not Roman, definitely serve as an example), Slave trade and pillaging
Mare nostrum is at best 600-700 years old, which leaves several millenia of recorded history. Cultural exchanges happened a plenty during the bronze age and hellenistic period as well. Nor did the exchange exactly stop during the middle ages, where entities like bohemia were backwaters for being secluded by landmass. Landtheft, slavery and other imperialistic tendencies played a part in it certainly, but again that's because the sea gave access far more than landmass. Access that also included trade and other more "equal" exchanges.
I never understood why people say stuff like to speculate, implying there are no genetic studies publicly available on the internet. Southern Spaniards are closer to Swedish people than to North Moroccans
Genetics don't correspond 1:1 with phenotypes. Generational enviroment plays just as large a role as genetics. Hence why there are amazigh tribes that have blue eyes and blonde hair by living in mountainous regions for generations. Mediterrenean people look like each-other, because the coastal people share by and large an enviroment far closer to each-other than to Swedens dark winters. It's why you will jave Egyptians from the coastal cities looking more like europeans and inland egyptians looking more sudanese.
As somebody that's part Tunisian, I can also say that people all around the Mediterranean are all pretty similar. I don't know about you, but by looking at me some people thought I was Spanish, some Italian, and some other Greek. I also have an Italian friend who people often think is Lebanese
In Italy if you have pale skin during the summer people will roast you. The stigma against people who don’t get a tan between May and September is ridiculous
lmaooo im latino and like death metal but this is so true, juan gabriel is a good example. he was in jail and singing about how beautiful the sun is and being all jolly and grateful 😭😭
As a romanian, this is funny. But also many people's views about romania(easter europe in general) is stuck in the 90's-2000's, it's not like this anymore
Also, I can guarantee you most big cities in developed countries will be like that. With a central, clean, rich area and then dilapidated peripheries because poor people live there and nobody cares.
Signed: a non-Romanian that lives in a developed country in a city that looks just like that.
Also from Eastern Europe. It's a result of zero care about maintenance of districts and buildings that used to be the pride of the region.
Look at Athens from decades ago. When the buildings were first built around the city centre, the architecture and mood was almost regal. Now it's rotten.
It’s funny to read up on this, because I saw pictures of a beautiful Art Nouveau villa that was left to fucking rot almost in the centre of Bucharest just yesterday
Do you have any idea how fucking expensive it is to renovate even something like an apartment building?
It naturally should fall on the people living there, but they wouldnt have the money, so the state should maybe try to help, until you look at the numbers and figure out it would bankrupt the whole country if everything were to be made neat and pretty.
Renovating an apartment is not a reasonable comparison, and a lot of those buildings were built by the Crown that was later appropriated by the state anyway.
Either way I don't think you can complain about lack of funds. The mafias that run the Balkans and eastern Europe in general seem to be well fed.
Also, it's literally cultural heritage. If you can't take care of it at least demolish it and sell the land.
The image shows a high-angle view over the Montserrat neighborhood in Buenos Aires, Argentina, looking across dense urban rooftops toward the central business district
People's views about literally everywhere in the world that isn't USA/Canada, Australia/New Zealand, western europe and developed asian countries is stuck in the 90's - 2000's and some in the 60s - 70s.
There are a couple parts especially of the southern Balkans and Ukraine that are a bit like that stereotype but in general most of Eastern Europe looks like most of Western Europe nowadays, yeah
