Russian minister of culture: if you read comics as an adult you are fat and stupid

>be Russian
>be autistic

I'd rather be autistic than subhuman.

>minister of culture
Imagine having a population retarded enough for something so blatant to exist. At least in the US we have to disguise it as independent media channels so people don't catch on.

Russia is always trying to turn their kids into robots

> ultra right mafismo state based around a masculine strongman does not approve of people enjoying childish things

Russia is a country that borders on being a failed state. It's economy is on the same level of Italy's (it will never properly recover from the collapse of the USSR) that's basically had to cultivate an image of extreme masculinity in order to make up for its growing levels of poverty, drug addiction and crime.

That's why russians do the mature thing and chug vodka on a playground all day

>Medinskiy
He is a Jew who plagiarized his dissertation and is busy writing shitty propaganda books on topics like "Stalin did nothing wrong" and "Western Europe has sucked since the very beginning of its history". Fuck his opinion.

What is with these old, out-of-touch caucasian idiots and their "anything drawn/animated is for kids" shtick? This stodgy-ass mindset's been going on since the 1950's. They need to be shown some shit with a waifu they like, then told the same thing. Watch how fucking quickly they elevate that particular title/show to "for all ages". Unrelated, but similar, My dad always berated me for liking video games (80's kid, so, yeah, games have always been a thing for my generation, and parents were just perplexed) and said comic books were for kids...then when I was 16, I saw some doodles on the border of a newspaper section that he'd thrown into the wastepaper basket. May he rest in piece, Captain Uptight was doing doodles of Goofy!! Anyone ever get the feeling the deriders actually LIKE animation/comics/videogames, but are ASHAMED, and feel that they would be seen as immature by the somewhat emotionally/imagination-stunted old men in their peer group, who hold the mentality of "Fun is for children, adulthood is all seriousness"?

We already had this thread. It's clear the man is an idiot.

Did the other thread finally fall off the board?

>Amerimutt criticizing anyones culture.

Ministries of culture are not rare or weird, user.
Most of modern first world countries have them.

Except for burgerlard, I guess

It's mostly about allocating funds to museums abd art galleries, plus embezzling money by 'sponsoring' movies nobody will atch.

It's still a moronic opinion.

Other than Stasi and Vodka, I believe Medinsky did say all that stuff, actually.
Also, "Russians are a superior people because of an extra chromosome".

Basically. Books are propably the most brainlet form of media because in order to understand them you only have to know how to analyze words. With comics, you also have to know how to analyze pictures, so they require more knowledge to understand them. People only praise books as the peak of intelligence because they have been around for longer and because a wall of text is much more intimidating than a picture

>It’s probably possible to collect them, it’s fun, but don’t read it
Is the nigga really implying that hoarding comics but not reading them is okay?

what's up with that huge dip in 1995?

all the social weight and disaster of 1990's have culmitated then.

If Russia wants to be admired, it should do something worth admiring.
So far we've got a culture minister saying
>Things I no like are objectively trash
Which isn't very inspiring

We have an old tradition here in Russia - the ministry of culture goes to the most retarded man in the whole country. The second most retarded man takes the ministry of education.

>from Propaganda sources
Probably, but without any sort of citation, he could have just made them himself

Maybe he should worry about the 50,000 protestors at his doorstep rather than comics.

It is from this guy. Russian blogger who has been spot on the issue of russian demographics for the last decade. His articles are filled with every bit of info that I as a russian shill need to fight off the anti-russian retards that sites like these are so filled with.

He took it from here most likely, or any other similar website:
ruxpert.ru/Haceлeниe_Poccии
ruxpert.ru/Пpoдoлжитeльнocть_жизни_в_Poccии
The website is basically handbook for propagantist, but most of the sources are either other propaganda sites/literature or complete bullshit. Best case the source is federal statistics service, which is.. fine, but I personally would take with a grain of salt.

Americans don't have a ministry of culture
Because they have no culture other then murder and child molestation

Russia's policy since Putin was installed seems to be "If we can't win, we'll just make everyone else lose harder than us."

so post a better source Karlin

>Americans don't have a ministry of culture
Because Hollywood etc is doing just fine on it's own, doesn't need the government shilling it.
Also, the majority of popular movies and music are made in the USA
>b-b-but popular doesn't mean good
And modern Russian art is neither good nor popular, at least when people see American art, they recognise it.

>It is clarified that the Minister of Culture opposed the creation of comics dedicated to historical events.

There's the problem. He doesn't want comics because most Russian comics/games/film usually tend to be introspective and take inspiration from the shitty things they did in the past and you can't have that now can we? Hurr Russia stronk

>other propaganda sites/literature
When the stats are bad like in case of the AIDS epidemic or data from a decade ago then they are 100% honest
When the stats are good that means they are fixing the numbers and muh propaganda machine

Oh wow it's like that's how it works or something.

Why do any of you care what some Ivan says about comics?

YO WHAT’S UP RUSSIANS, QUESTION!

Why do you all seem like a bunch of meaningless cunts whose only purpose is making Putin feel good? Pinocchio was more of a real boy than most of you cyka blats.

Which is why it's in percentages and not raw numbers, dumbass

Westerners are more obsessed about Putin then Russians

Yea Forums is full of homos so they get triggered every time Russia is mentioned

Since Putin? That's American education for you. That was our motto for at least 800 years.

Because Putin makes you feel bad mostly. We just keeping him to spite you.

>cutting off your nose to spite some ither guy's face

Yeah, that's Russia alright

>those invasion always beign especially brutal
>shit, we need security and stability fast
>cue in autocracy and veneration of the ruler as a personification of security and social stability
>500 years later still the same societal and governmental formula is in place and it works for them

And then they have to deal with Americans online who drivel about their Individuality and cargo cult of Progres solely for Progres sake.

I'm still trying to figure out what that fucking retard brain graph even means by the percentages. Is it abortions in relation to live births? So in 2017 for every 2~ births would there be an aborted fetus? And in the 60s were there 2 aborted babies for every live child?

That is the worst graph I've seen since fucking secondary school.

If my interpretation is correct, that isn't exactly something to laud, JUST managing to only kill off 1/3 children on purpose is hilarious as a brag of progress.

Note how they all rise and drop in almost the exact same pattern, almost as if the deaths aren't going reported over a certain quota.

>did nothing wrong
Hold it right there commie

translation?

The nosedive that happened since the end of the 90s IS impressive, and if the trend continues that will mean they finally ended a half a century long problem

>Eurofags need the state to tell them what kind of culture to consume

Thank god I don't live with you buffoons.

Shut the fuck up KULAK

>involuntarily calls his countrymen autistic

It's too bad Russia doesn't have any comics people want to read, like the US, France and Japan does.

>his country removes great works of it's literature from the school curriculum because the book contains the word "nigger"

i believe the text say CRAWLIING IIIN MY SKIN, THESE WOUUND THEY WILL NOT HEAAL

It is good there is no Tsar
It is good there is not Russia
And it's good that God's not here

Only yellow rising dawn
Only icy stars above
And the eons passing by

It is good that there is no one
It is good that nothing left
It's so black and dead in here

That it never will be blacker
And could never deader be
No one has the means to help us

And there is no need to help.

>he only get's exposed to culture in the classroom and state mandated bullshit

Bro, American's consume culture voluntarily, they don't need some shitty government to tell them it's good or bad. If the Government says it's bad in the first place, we take extra interest in it. Europe hasn't had an impact on world culture in the past 50 years, and that's being generous. Why else do you think all of your precious "European cultural elite" ends up moving to the United States?

This really smacks of old Soviet propaganda that American culture is decadent.

good grief that is depressing

In the context of when it was written it was pretty depressing:

Thank God there is no Tsar
Thank God there is no Russia
Thank God there is no God

Only a jaundiced twilight
Only hoary stars
Only illimitable years

Thank God there is no one
Thank God there is nothing
So dark, so dead

It could not be deader
Shall never be darker
No one to help us
And no need to help

Russia has no international pull to speak of other than being one of the most notorious practitioners of communism sending most people to gulag. That being said, mutt comics sell like ass outside the States, so I wouldn’t be surprised if this was directed to those reading manga.

I've never learned English professionally so to speak. But every time I read this official translation I want to the find the translator that did it and murder him slowly. There are good translators, like the guy who translated most of Pratchett's books in Russian, and then there is this guy.

Russia has international pull in Belarus and Kyrgyzstan

Manga readers in Russia would probably first murder the minister before they give up reading it.

Frankly, they could read diddly shit in school if they wanted to.
It's not the school's job to teach them about culture, it's a person own responsibility to educate themselves about things they don't need for a job.

You got a point
It does sound a lot better in Russian

And what did you thought it would be saying considering the picture? Story of fluffy rabbits running over a meadow?

America has hundreds of different cultures, it doesn't need a federal bureaucracy enforcing one particular culture

>America has no culture

drinking overpriced shit that passes for a coffee, worshiping everything Marvel churns out, driving electric cars, vaping and eating avocado toast is not culture.

>One project that had enormous DOD support was Man of Steel – the first film in the DC Extended Universe. However, when Phil Strub first read the script he thought it was terrible, that ‘we could never work on this stupid thing’. The Army’s ELO reports from that time first record their involvement in Man of Steel in February 2011 but it took six months of negotiations for the DOD to approve support. They reviewed the script multiple times, sending it back for further revisions throughout March and April. In the end the only support the Army provided was some vehicles for a scene filmed at Edwards Air Force base, but in exchange they rewrote the script multiple times.
