Як телевізор формував з українців совєтських людей | The Документаліст

"Blue Light" or the main show of the communist empire. How Soviet propagandists managed to unite collective farm workers, astronauts and artists in one broadcast. Why Yuri Gagarin was the hero of the New Year's lights for a whole decade. And what prompted the young Joseph Kobzon to glue a beard and sing a song about Cuba with a machine gun in his hands. This duet also gathered full halls and delighted millions of people, while at the same time promoting the idea of ​​bilingualism and subtly mocking Ukrainians. Shteple was a smart and reasonable Russian, while Tarapunka was a kind of stupid, Surzhi-speaking fool-Khokh. Such narratives were spread for years to the entire multimillion-strong audience of the USSR. The Ostankino TV Tower, like an information needle. How did it happen that during the USSR, Ukrainians had only three channels – Central Television, which was broadcast from Moscow, and UT-1 and UT-2, which were broadcast from Kyiv. And on Ukrainian channels, the main programs were “Rural Time” or “Village and People,” while Moscow content was many times more interesting. Accordingly, Ukrainians eagerly consumed even openly propagandistic nonsense that talked about the army, weapons, and all this military romance of the scoop. Today we have an extremely interesting topic. We are talking about the zombie apocalypse of the USSR, or how the Kremlin used television to create a unified, faceless, and gray Soviet person. It must be Russian-speaking. Everything was done very carefully and thoughtfully and answers the question - why did the Union collapse more than thirty years ago, and in the minds of people who grew up and lived in it, songs from "Blue Light" and "Song of the Year" still sound with nostalgia.
