  3. Russians stealing history or achievements of those they occupy is something that Ukrainians, Pole bros, and Baltic bros know all too well.

  4. Russia is a cancer on the modern world. It needs putting in a box and sealing up forever.

  6. russia didn’t do anything on its own, not a single invention was made by russians, all they do is stealing and pretend it’s theirs, best they can do its slight modification of smth that already exist.

  8. What a surprise. They stole Königsberg and many other areas.
    They should return all the stolen land and take back Russians living there. On their expense. And then they should break up. They will not do this on their own, the world must force them.

  9. But huge areas of Germany were given away to other states too. But Germans are too scared to talk smack to them.

  10. So can we all agree on making Kaliningrad into Königsberg again, because of security reasons and it historically being German? I am sure Russia will understand, they are really big on national security and historical borders.

  11. Technically the truth. Well at least half of it because they really took Kralovec as a trophy. Kant is still German though.

  13. Soviet victory over Germany was the singular most glorious victory in the history of mankind.

  14. The eternal love / hate with Europe and European culture: Russians claim to be threatened by the western philosophy but then claim pieces of it (for instance now with Kant) or just succumb to it (with Marx’s Communism)

  15. He explicitly said it was Russian in an ethnic sense. Really rich coming from a man from the Caucasus

  17. And how’s he not right? Russians do the fuck they want and noone has real balls to stop them. Everyone is scared of escalation. So, they become impudent without any real repercussions.

  18. If you knew what scandals there were in 2018 on this topic💀

    As it was, they just wanted to conveniently justify the philosophy Olympiads. I do not know why they called him a Russian trophy… Maybe after World War II, they received his “grave” as a trophy, which later became a useful source for propaganda. Uh… And also Putin is ardent fan of him.

    By the way…
    Russian officials managed to discern in Kant the culprit of the conflict in Ukraine. Thus, the governor of the Kaliningrad Region, Anton Alikhanov, stated that Kant “laid the foundation of German classical philosophy, pumped the German will, at the same time cutting it off from higher values,” which is why “such a socio-cultural situation” appeared. According to the Kaliningrad governor, both the First World War and the conflict in Ukraine “began” in the philosopher’s works, Russian media reported in February 2024. Kant’s legacy needs to be subjected to a “large-scale revision,” according to the head of the region, who called the thinker “our Russian trophy.”💀It’s just some skill issue, idk

  19. Hillarious to see so many germans in the comments, still mad that their 90 year old genocidal ambition failed.

  20. i’ve heard even worse rusian joke about Julius Evola: “whatever Evola might have written – his legs by right belong to rusia”. if such jokes come from rather educated people… what can you expect from poor dumb politicians?

  21. I mean these are the same people that use Marx as another historical they stole lol but they can have that commie shit
