Starlight Glimmer learns about the Soviet Union. What's her reaction?

Let's say Starlight is doing some research on human history and she finds out about a nation that no longer exists called the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. (USSR) Catching interest, she reads about it from its founding in 1922 to its disbandment in 1991. How does she react?

That would be interesting. Yeah, pre-reform Starlight would probably use it as an example and soon Our Town would have factories and try to expand into "Our City" and later, "Our Country".

Post-reform Starlight would probably be horrified, thinking that this is how "Our Town" could have ended up.

I think she could recognize the hypocritical flaws of her ideology. There can never be equality as long as a figure of authority remains. This requires a consolidate effort by the community to equalize itself with one another. Like a true intelligent collective that is not limited by a power structure, neither within nor without.

But for this to be possible, it would be necessary to remove the source of ego in human beings. To neutralize polarity. Which most likely would result in a less complex, hive-mind paradigm. More efficient, more organized, more equal, more simple. But the point of the archons was to create a world of separation to increase the potency of experience and diversity of LOVE, by separating one from one through means of isolating a portion of the conscious collective into what is known as the subconscious collective.

Still, I really like the original starlight and her system. It reminds of an equalizing paradigm gone wrong.

I don't know if her "welcome" dictatorship fits the USSR. I don't know much about USSR. But she would probably be a good dictator no matter what the values were, since she lied about the values in the first place

Which language is this? I can read Cyrillic (not that I understand most of what I read), but this makes no sense to me. I guess, from the letter "i" this is not Russian, but then the Russian letter "и" is also used here.

yeah, I can also read Cyrillic (but went for the western idea of fake Russian), it's just "time to rise, long live stalin"
If I read it as Cyrillic it makes no sense, but I just went for the aesthetic that most westerners confuse with russian

Oh yeah, I forgot about this option :twismile:. When I see the letter "ya" used in place of "r" it always trips me up for a second until I realize what this is supposed to be. But your text looked too much like Russian so I tried to decipher it.
