The very day came, in the calculation of which the Komsomol members of the past laid throughout the USSR “time capsules” with letters to descendants-and in many cities they were finally solemnly opened.

For the right to open capsules in some cities, local cells of the Communist Party competed with the city authorities - and they did not manage to agree everywhere. A real drama played in Lugansk.
The whole of Lugansk, stirring with strong alcohol, with fading watches the epic called “Big Kush, or <persli>”.
This wild story began back in 1968, when in the Komsomol square the then Komsomol members laid the “time capsule” with a message to the descendants. It was to open it to the 100th anniversary of the creation of the Komsomol. Naive souls, they thought that they were sending their pussy straight to communism, which must certainly have come. But the fact that it came, and the local communists decided that they had fiercely the right to first open the capsule and read this historical document. The city authorities were disposed of in their own way and a few days before the anniversary, the artifact unleashed insidiously. It turned out that the Cidulum would be read out at a closed meeting at the city hall, in front of a banquet with the participation of representatives of the regional elite with a Komsomol train. Because it was these citizens that were recognized as the only addressees of this message. After reading, the document was promised solemnly transferred to the local history museum. The Communists graciously promised to give a photocopy. Then, however, they also changed their minds on the day of the centenary of the Communist-Komsomol remake was strictly forbidden to be discharged even in the distant vicinity of the museum. The commercial test lifted the hi in social networks: "<ploval> !!!"
Actually, the ordinary Luhansk residents to <asses> Kari Ochi and the anniversary, which they would not have remembered under other circumstances. And Komsomol members, both a model of the 60s and 2018. And the capsule is purchased with it, do not go to the grandmother, to the accountability of high -pairing contents. So people and their problems are enough. But everyone is humanly interesting how this sur will end. I understand them. I am also interested.
In Lugansk, the Communists have taken Big Kush (Snatch that is). This is some kind of ionso chi Beckett - a mortal struggle unfolds for a piece of paper with an ahine. It’s a pity that it was no longer 2014-15, and did not arrange Gumenyuk with grenade launchers along the way from the Komsomol square to Kotsyubinsky, 14.
In childhood, this little town Kaaba was fascinating. It was wildly interesting what such is written there. Now it is easy to guess the content:
"Dear descendants, you go to communism, fly between the stars!
On Mars, the records of apples were collected by drummers of communist labor. The northern rivers have long irrigated thehydrous deserts of Karakum and Kyzylkum. Each family has a separate apartment. The remnants of medieval obscurantism are defeated, in the former churches - museums of science, lectures and clubs "for 30". Crime does not exist, and pioneers in circles make robots and photon missiles.
The developing countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America developed into prosperous socialist states. The Zionist military suffered a crushing defeat, and fraternal China got rid of the heavy heritage of the cultural revolution and also goes to the wake of the communist flagship - the USSR.
In an interesting time you live! But there was still a lot to do so that the banner of communism triumphantly walks around the universe! We believe in you! "
The content of capsules really does not differ in variety.
In St. Petersburg, the message of the Komsomol members of the 60s to the generation of 2018 was opened. The capsule with it was stored in the building of the Red Dawn plant. Today it was removed from the wall and read out the text before the audience. pic.twitter.com/byyphktaoh

“You will continue the development of space. You will have a lot of labor victories ”: today in the 20th school of the Krasnoktyabrsky district, a capsule laid down by Komsomol members in the far of 1968 was opened. We publish their message to the descendants-“Komsomol members of the 21st century”: https://t.co/w99qu0r3mv pic.twitter.com/ubnluimizc

It is not known whether the authors of these messages believed that by 2018 the Russians would live in a beautiful society of the future. However, some of their descendants are a little annoying that the socialist dream has not come true.
Today is the birthday of the Komsomol. 100th anniversary. The percentage of saints in this organization was, of course, the largest in the history of mankind. Forgive us Komsomol, if you can. But we ourselves do not like how we live now. And we envy you. pic.twitter.com/23rj8wcspl

In some places, new capsules have already been laid in the place of opened capsules.
Today is the Komsomol Day, and at work we opened the capsule of the time, which was laid 50 years ago. Here, some people are still working here, who, when presented by this year, will now lay a new one to our descendants for 2069. go nuts

And here is the news from the parallel world: in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Komsomol in Orsk, the time capsule for the 150th anniversary of the Komsomol is laid. I wonder who will read it if 140 million are already in paradise, and 6860000000 will simply die?

It seems to many that the older generation is nostalgia for the Komsomol among the older generation.
I don’t understand this ragless celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Komsomol.
Although he himself was the secretary of the Committee of one at the Gosplanovsky (RSFSR) Institute.
Let's still ponest at the CPSU.
Or on the councils of the deputies of workers.
According to trade unions to the so -called.
On other attributes of Soviet power.
Ugh!
No, I understand: longing for the past years.
As one of my classmates says: "There are still desires, but the body is no longer that." :))
Well, yes, for women it somehow happens faster.
And just do not identify youth with the Komsomol.
By the centenary of the Lenin Komsomol
"I have slaughtered my exile years - the years of rage in a woman, out of fear for my books, out of fear that the Komsomol member will betray me." (Solzhenitsyn. "Budged a calf with an oak")
Youth is when you are not nostalgic for the Komsomol and Komsomol members.
"... It’s good that we managed to step aside in his youth! Nobody shot on the phone, I did not put it on the Internet ..." - with the centenary of the Komsomol! :)) © https://t.co/cx3fd9mgmgmgmg

In the early years of his existence, they also joined the Komsomol, including for the sake of free love, Yegor Kholmogorov believes:
A special way was required, a special structure that can tear out young people from the power of the “mother’s spoons” and direct it to such terrible and shameless affairs that not a single self-respecting communist from the Great Russians would dare to. It was here that the Komsomol played a role-a new life environment, a strong comradely rally, collectivism, bizarre combining everyday life and extreme licentiousness, including free relations with girls who also escaped from under the mother’s guardianship. The body of the Komsomolp all served a kind of reward for blasphemy and atrocities.
But many are remembered not so much by the “Komsomol member” as how much difficult it was to break through anywhere, without joining the Komsomol, and what a reliable social elevator this organization served for those who dreamed of making his way into the highest bureaucratic layers.
The people are enthusiastic celebrating the centenary of the Komsomol. Someone about the terrible ideology, some about hot idealists, who just recalls what a wonderful erection he had at the Komsomol age.
I will add my own. I would have got horseradish, not the Institute of Oriental Languages at Moscow State University, if not for the recommendation of the Komsomol district committee. Only she allowed me to become an orientalist in that era, and then an international journalist.
Since my dad was not a people's artist, academician or referent of the CPSU Central Committee, I, of course, entered the Komsomol, like all boys who wanted to enter the university and by no means wanting to thunder in the army, at the age of 14. At the same time, I well remember that when leaving the Komsomol district committee, already with an icon, my random comrade, with whom we showed together in the corridor of this institution, immediately told me an idiotic anti -Soviet joke - at present, it is not indecent, because it is not good to mock the patient of a decrepit old man (Chernenko).
They joined the Komsomol in 1968. Or in 1969. Fourteen hit - and forward. Exactly so - entered. Not myself, I entered. If they joined the Komsomol at their own free will, he would immediately cease to exist.
Komsomol - it was somehow west. It was a certain game in which you were constantly involved somewhere, and as far as possible you dodged and deviated.
The Komsomol was like that boy from “Welcome or the entrance is forbidden”: “Why are you doing this here?” - "Come out of here!"
In the novel about the life of tenth graders that I wrote in the same tenth grade, there is only one phrase about the Komsomol, but it is enough; "Finally they accepted someone there in the Komsomol and some obligations there. The office was instantly empty." <...>
Yes, it was a game, and not too pleasant. Each group should have a Komsomol, someone was elected and then sympathized with him-he, in addition to our ordinary student entertainment, had to do some obligation. Well, that’s the game: it fell out - Goli. You look, you are sucked by someone, and then he will be shit already.
But to those who began to act in this game, to advance along the Komsomol line, the attitude was already somewhat wary. As if yours, but no matter how yours. And it was right - the future nomenclature, separate from us, forged from these people. The farther, the more we alienated. In the late nineties, I happened to drink with our former Komsomol figure - I was struck by his bossy nape. Well, without looking into the eyes and at the physiognomy - even in the hallway, while he, standing with his back to me, took off his coat, it was clear on the back of his head that it was a boss and a large boss.
And the current large bosses are still grateful to the Komsomol.
First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Culture Elena Drapeko: “But there is one nuance that everyone is missing for some reason. I was born on October 29. On the birthday of the Komsomol. Therefore, I am an eternal Komsomol. I am a laureate of the Lenin Komsomol Prize. All my life I was friends with Komsomol, I went very often in our country and abroad. The Komsomol was everywhere, we all, the Komsomol members of our generation, are still friends, remember and now prepare for the 100th anniversary of the Komsomol. Constructive companies in politics have a lot of people.
The authorities celebrated the anniversary on a grand scale. The first round took place in the Russian concert hall in Moscow Luzhniki. The impressions are shared by a member of the United Communist Party Daria Mitina :
And all the Segoma was - and 10 thousand people in the Lutika Hall, and the songs of the civil and great Ot -mere, and the swearing Lenin and the Trotsky VO, and the host of the evening, Nikita Vladimir Okhotsky, with such a sign of the native intonations in the ghosts, who said The Heroic Stalinist striks, and the horus of Turkish, who sang greatly "and Lenin, so much, and the young Oktyabr ahead!" (The best songs of the storage, as Mikhail Turkish put it), and the eternal lion Leshchenko with love, to the spring, and the unkind-on-Ost, singing the Komsomol songs, and unchanged "self-intentiones" with Malikov, who overthrowed their hands. The Cometer of the Moskoncert, and the six ORENS Komsomolo, and the ten thousandth hall, singing the “Komsomolets-Dobrovans”, and the seedling in the Hall of the Prokemam (Kochable between the Leninsky and Rodny Bauman), and the Vojoka, and Win, and Win, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wino, and Wines Tears (when I do not stain my eyes these days, everything is clumsy with streams), and the jubilee badges, and the book “Interrupted” the Prosti Sergei Kuprev who came to everyone (as a Bauman, is pleasant to me), and Non -Monyakdomovatomnava.
The concert was followed by celebrations in the Kremlin Palace of Congresses.
The centenary of the Lenin Komsomol was celebrated in the Kremlin. The presidential greeting was read out by Sergey Kiriyenko, in the past - the first secretary of the Gorky regional committee of the Komsomol. The line of those who wish was lined up to take a picture with Valentina Matvienko, who once headed the Leningrad Regional Committee of the Komsomol. “Such a number of iPhones of the last generation per square meter,” writes today's “Rossiyskaya Gazeta”, “can only be represented on the shelves of a company store.”
It was even clear to us the Komsomol members of the seventies, discussing the future of the country in smokers that the “Komsomol members” would ever replace the stuck leaders of Brezhnev times. So it happened. It's not about only Komsomol workers, but about all those who made their way up with the help of speaking of the right words. They themselves did not believe much in these words and, when changing the system, instantly abandoned the principles, perfectly fit into capitalism. In the nineties went to bankers, to the zero - to officials, and continue to confidently go with a song in this life. Last weekend, Komsomol songs were heard from many restaurants of the country, where middle -aged, but quite successful people gathered to celebrate their holiday.
The Komsomol estate was the then social elevator. Those who did not want to slowly go down the stairs of officials-storage ranks pushed into it. From the engineer to the head of the workshop, and even more so the headquarters was not short, but it could be reduced using a zigzag to the district district committee. The Komsomol career helped to get into the “organs”: Yuri Churbanov from the head of the department of the Komsomol Central Committee became the boss, at first small, to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and after a successful marriage (at Brezhnev’s daughter) - to colonel generals. True, he finished badly, but others were more lucky.
We, just Komsomol members, recognized them at first sight, they were even similar. Yes, you can easily find out such and now, take a closer look at the current bosses from young and early, you will see, they look like typical Komsomol members who made their careers out of the Soviet regime. As in our time they joked, they are produced in one place, on one machine.
The current “Komsomol members” are complained of the abundance of boss children in the highest bureaucracy. This is true, but the truth is that a social elevator for people like them has not gone anywhere. If you wish, you can get into it - say the right words, swear at fidelity to the scrapers! This is no more difficult than becoming an entrepreneur, to start his own business. These are fewer, and more and more officials. It’s difficult to get into the nobility in any class society, but for the time being, not such a narrow ladder of the civil service, where high school students and students dream of getting there. So that Komsomol has been gone for a long time, but his business lives. One hundred years already.
The institute’s Komsomol cell traveled to the best construction teams, and at the end of their studies, they all settled in the new -built commercial banks on the money of the party. Banks burst for a long time, and activists are still warmly sitting in the board of the other first dozen in the ranking
Valentina Matvienko congratulated former Komsomol members today and stated that the experience of the Komsomol of Russia of the future will be useful - TASS reports this in a note that would look quite organically on the page of the newspaper Pravda forty years ago:
The experience of the Youth Komsomol Organization, which contributed to the formation of personalities of millions of boys and girls in difficult conditions, is invaluable for Russia, directed into the future. This opinion was expressed on Monday by the speaker of the Federation Council Valentin Matvienko in his congratulation, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the creation of the All-Union Lenin Communist Union of Youth (Komsomol).
Supports this point of view Sergey Markov :
Today is 100 years to the Komsomol. It was a great state system of socialization of youth. Thanks to the Komsomol, millions of people formed a system of personality values, and built their professional career, and did their first projects. Through the Komsomol, the guys of their poor unstat, dysfunctional families could even contrary to the circumstances to reach a solid life. The Komsomol also created a youth recreation system in which they could live a bright life.
Все понимают, что современная Россия нуждается в такой системе работы с молодежью, какой был комсомол. Только без жесткой политической идеологии. И конечно, с современным форматом. Но и все понимают, что современное российское государство слабо и политически и идейно и не способно создать такую систему работы с молодежью. И все, кто любит Россию, поэтому грустны от такой неспособности России сделать очевидно необходимое. Поздравляю великую советскую цивилизацию со 100 летием одного из величайших ее достижений.
И конечно, поздравляю российских банкиров и олигархов, почти все они получили подготовку в комсомоле, взяли оттуда связи, навыки и добились успехов. Комсомол и КГБ вот главные кузницы кадров российской элиты.
Другие комментаторы предпочли бы обойтись без таких "кузниц".
Память о комсомоле должна служить нравственным ориентиром для молодых россиян. Такое мнение, как передает ТАСС, выразила спикер Совета Федерации Валентина Матвиенко в поздравлении, приуроченном к столетию ВЛКСМ. Анекдот в тему: Чем отличаются комсомольцы 20-х от комсомольцев 80-х? Ростом. Первым все было по плечу, последним - гораздо ниже.
100 лет комсомолу. Из них я в нём состоял лет 10. И могу сказать, что мои личные воспоминания самые негативные. Эта в моём опыте была организация, которая, с одной стороны, была инструментом бессмысленного насилия и жуткого лицемерия, с другой, инструментом карьеры, причём чаще всего для самых подлых или самых безликих. Вышел я из комсомола сам в 1989 году, вернувшись из своего длительного среднеазиатского поля, после впечатлений от первого съезда депутатов и конфликта в Фергане.
Комсомол - это была мерзотная организация конформистов, подхалимов, стукачей и подручных палачей. Вот и вся комсомольская мораль - во всяком случае, на уровне руководства и актива.
Уже одно то, как вся эта публика в 1991 году разбежалась по углам, растащив сколько дали, характеризует комсомол и комсомольцев с худшей стороны.
Стыдиться комсомольства надо, а вот гордиться там совсем нечем.
Многие, впрочем, считают, что членство в комсомоле, особенно на излете СССР, было делом сугубо формальным и никого ни к чему не обязывало.
Раз уж тут все ностальгируют.
Я был членом ВЛКСМ месяца что ли два. В университете на дне открытых дверей сказали, что без комсомольского значка поступить будет "проблематично".
Времена уже были либеральные. Могли бы сказать - "невозможно", а сказали - "проблематично".
Я выучил, что такое демократический централизм и какими орденами награжден ВЛКСМ. Пришел в комиссию. По странному стечению обстоятельств меня спросили, что такое демократический централизм и какими орденами был награжден ВЛКСМ. Что такое демократический централизм - до сих пор зачем-то помню, про ордена забыл.
После этого я получил значок, и решил, что моя борьба за счастье молодежи окончена. В конце учебного года меня вызвали в райком, сказали, что у них борьба за дисциплину, и что меня исключают за неуплату взносов.
Две копейки в месяц, кажется.
Страна явно шла вразнос, в затылок дышало будущее, я не расстроился.
А в сентябре следующего года комсомол самораспустился. Я факт самороспуска с моим исключением из рядов связывать не склонен. Я скромный.
А в университет я поступал уже в другой стране. Которая даже и сейчас лучше, чем поганый совок. Даже и сейчас.
В далёком 1984 году меня принимали в комсомол.
Дело происходило в райкоме. Небольшой зал, три десятка школьников, президиум, бюст, флаг.
Интервьюировать каждого времени и желания у президиума не было, поэтому из списка выбрали несколько фамилий наугад.
Мою фамилию традиционно не смогли правильно произнести с первого раза, но к этому я был давно привычен.
Для начала вежливо спросили:
– Почему вы, Аркадий Михайлович, хотите вступить в комсомол?
– Чтобы быть в передовых рядах советской молодёжи, – с готовностью ответил я выученный урок.
– А куда вы собираетесь после восьмого класса?
– В девятый.
- And then?
– В институт.
– А вы знаете, что передовой отряд советской молодежи – не инженеры, а рабочие. На заводах и фабриках? – спросили меня с хитрым прищуром.
– Знаю, – ответил я насколько мог спокойно, а про себя подумал: "Ну вот, началось..."
– Ну хорошо, садитесь, – неожиданно сказал голос из президиума и продолжил собрание.
Потом всем раздали книжечки и значки, поздравили и разошлись по домам.
Прошло 35 лет и ничего в стране не изменилось. Люди по обеим сторонам президиума хорошо учат и с готовностью произносят правильные слова. А потом идут и занимаются совсем другими делами.
И все равно сложно избавиться от ощущения, что из сотен вскрытых "капсул времени" высвободился на свет призрак ВЛКСМ, который теперь сложно будет загнать обратно.
Про влксм - это круто я считаю, потому что я сейчас, уже почти сорокалетний, с животом и бородой, могу снова сесть с друзьями и портвейном на остановке и начать бренчать на гитаре Летова антисоветского периода и быть при этом не старым говнарем, а модным нонконформистом и панком. Вернули юность, спасибо. И да, дорогие комсомольцы, «пошли вы все <к черту>!»
В ленте френды призывают демона Комсомола, жгут свечки и шепчут заклинания. Хеллоуин удался.
