I feel the same way about the first man and woman in space, but lord forbid we make statues of actual heroes instead of checks notes slavers and genociders
Typical Putin/United Russia nationalist supporter.
Like come on what do people expect? Their country was literally torn apart by foreign imperialists and wrecked by mass poverty. It’s easy to say this until your country has been destroyed by a foreign power and seeing people leaving the country en masse to migrate to the enemy nation without a hint of patriotism. This has always been the story for many developing countries who are at the receiving end of US imperialism since the Cold War.

Not a statue but I did manange to snag a one of these coins. It was the first in an Interkosmos series before they stopped it after the war broke out.
That’s so cooooooooool

That’s so fucking pretty. I want one
Their cult of personality.
Our great men of history.
Gagarin do have quite a lot of monuments including at least one in USA, and this absolute banger of a scultpure: . Tereshkova also have several ones.
Yo that rules
I think the couple that leaked microfilm detailing how to make a nuke to the USSR are heroes of the globe.
First woman in space is kinda bad tho
thought Valentina Tereshkova was okay? or did she takes some terrible positions when she got elected to the duma
She went liberal. Classical story of become a hero and live long enough to turn into a villain.
