This is the best youtube comment I‘ve ever read. This - is just a tribute.

Now Russia is the carcass of its former self
That is why the USSR collapsed, he tried to out pizza the hut

Wanted to like this comment, but the likes are too nice
I screamed omg
That ad is from 1997.
This is why Pizza Hut filed for bankruptcy.
Rest in peace, the man tragically witnessed both the entry and the exit of pizza hut from Russia.
A dream deferred . Happens a lot in Russia .
LOL, Russians were running Pizza Hut and are just running it still, like Starbucks. Russia is not a western Drama Queen, they take advantage of opportunities.
Tbh it was probably Pizza Huts fault, they have gotten so bad since this ad came out
@@TheWhiteManSays They used to be a nice quite place to eat, but now it's closer to a Chucky Cheese than a quality pizza joint.
This is weirdly poetic

Stalin and Lenin were probably turning in their graves so fast they could generate enough power for the entire Soviet Union

Don’t tell them about the Hitler subplot and the plot twist in 1941
I love how you picked 1957, which is arguably the year that communism was at it's height in terms of popularity and achievements. The Russians put Sputnk into orbit that year which resulted in a boost of prestige and popularity for the Soviet Union and Communism in general.
@@jordanmorris5827 I did that on purpose. It was probably the _least_ plausible ending for most of the Third World in 1957.
@@CountArthaI think you meant 2nd world not 3rd. Second world refered to communist countries whereas third world refered to non aligned countries.
@@jordanmorris5827 Yes, I'm familiar. A lot of the Third World was constantly torn between capitalism and socialism, and the Space Race was one of a number of dick-measuring contests to show which system was the one to bet on.

After reading about his death today, I went to Pizza-Hut today and ordered a pan style pizza with the same toppings just like in this upload in honor of Mr. Gorbachev. Thank you for making such a memorable commercial sir.
Good idea. I wish I would have thought about going to Pizza Hut today. I read that Gorbachev used the money he was paid for the commercial to fund his charity work. No matter what you think of him you have to admire that level of humility for a greater good. Would be fun if the little girl was actually his granddaughter. Nice memory for her whoever she is.
@@wendycaulk3577 She is really his granddaughter))
I would have done that if I could
Interesting! I was thinking of doing the same thing myself.😀
What are the toppings?
I still don't quite believe this is real, but either way, it's probably the best pizza commercial I've ever seen.
I just found out about it from The Economist Podcast, usually considered a reputable source.
It was real in the US to promote Pizza Hut.
It was indeed real. I remember watching this in the late 1990s during TV commercial breaks for football and college basketball.
The Garbochev name just made me think of that movie from Tumblr
You know communism is dead when Gorbachev is making Pizza Hut ads.
@T-1000 Yeah, technically you´re right but it was still a huge event
@T-1000 if you think China is still communist then you are a joke
@T-1000 Are they actually Communist though?
@T-1000 Then it's not communism, because communism, as stated by Marx, said that the means of production have to owned by a collective, not private individuals. So it's communist in name only.
@T-1000 Technically that's more State Capitalism than Communism.
That mark on Gorbachev’s head is actually pizza sauce

More like 10K!
I'm loss for words!

When the first thing you think about when you hear Gorbachev is dead is this freaking commercial. What a legacy!
he's in the big pizza hut in the sky now

It's not just a commercial for pizza, it's a commercial for capitalism.
Jay Zee i am not sure about this. gorbachev loved it that at least the west liked him, well at least more or less after he failed to uphold ussr while politically reforming it. you become a happy cynic when you know you have failed, sadly.
So what? At least it's much better.
It's a commercial for gorbafuckingchev
oh yes because that went really well when it totally ruined the soviet economy and russia still hasn't recovered after 30 fucking years. capitalism is great isn't it?
@/dev/RerunCipher "not true capitalism", hypocrite much?
also "i wouldn't exist without capitalism" what kind of arguement is that? none of us would exist without feudalism, that doesn't make us hypocrites for saying it is a terrible system.
alsoalso food prices skyrocketed after the soviet union became capitalist, before then food was plentiful and cheap in government stores. the famines were caused by the world wars and the civil war aswell as the transition to mechanized farming, not the economic system.
This could very well be the greatest commercial of all time.
Who is watching about hearing the news of Gorbachev's death?

After hearing everyone in the Pizza Hut scream “Hail to Gorbachev!” It was said that a single tear fell from Lenin’s eye.
Good
Actually Lenin was supportive of allowing capitalism to exist alongside socialism as a means to lead development to a point that would actually be stable for communism.
ItchySnazzy wait really?!?! Woah...:0
That’s is rather politically clever if that was his grand scheme
@@minhha8981 tzarist Russia was the fifth world's economy, but it held the half of the world's debt, imported half of the weapons it fought with in WWI and prodcuded tens of times less weapons than France/Britain/Germany taken separately. And thousands of times less automobiles. Mainly it was an agricultural country. The nobility didn't pay taxes at all, whatever rich they were. Instead they fed off from the illiterate and dependent farmers.
Lenin made these people pay taxes, took their excessively sized pieces of land in the benefit of the farmers. And put away any limitations for the small businesses for the simple people. However he nationalised some of the bigger ones which were speculating on goods prices b4 the revolution. This all happened in the situation of de-facto losing WWI, hunger and the richers becoming mad at this fella. Up to the year 1925 things got kinda stable and cool, except for one thing. Small business couldn't provide significant ccontribute to the industrial growth. And u now know it was hella problem.
In 1927 Stalin offers 5 year plans of grand build ups among the entire country. Up to 1939 the USSR exceeds Germany in the general economy size and the production of number of non war related industrial goods. About 8000 of only huge factories were built. The small business concept had been changed though. U could come to the government with ur offer of opening something and if they considered this suiting to their plans they could lend u equipment on the condition of selling the ready product to them on the prescribed price. If u had more left this time u could go to the local market. The second thing was the so-called "artels". This were independent enterprises, but with no shareholders, everyone hired had strictly one vote and it's the workers who regularly met to decide on things. These guys were making up to 30% of clothes, shoes and furniture in the USSR b4 the WWII.
The small businesses suffered from WWII and later were legally banned as "the remnants of the capitalist past" by Khrushchev, what I personally find stupid👎
Дмитрий Буйлин Thank you for sharing the information. And if you are a Russian, please know that we Vietnamese respect and treasure you guys a lot. Our veterans talks a lot of good things about you guys you know 🤗🤗👍
Mr. Gorbachev help made the best Pizza Hut commercial ever. He was also responsible for allowing McDonald's to open in Moscow as well.
And he died shortly after McDonald's left Russia.
he was also responsible for decreasing russia's life expectation in 10 years.
And now Pizza Hut has pulled out of Russia and Gorbachev has died in the space of 2 months. Coincidence?
Yes absolutely
Times change
Pizza hut lives off gordon
I didn't think this was real at first. HOLY SHIT this has to be the most ironic 60 seconds of television ever produced. Imagine Fidel Castro starring in a commercial where he sells boats
Or Saddam Hussein selling date palms
To be fair Castro was a communist to his bomes, Gorbachev was for the reforms and free market his entire career
I mean, I see Fidel Castro starring in a milk commercial since he loved milk
Like Gorbachev loved pizza hut
I'm pretty sure Castro starred in quite a few commercials, beer and cigar commercials to be specific. Anyone who has been to Cuba knows it is a far cry from marxist ideals

i like how the freedom of speech gorbachev gave is seen here. and old timer, who grew up in a brutal era, but with economic stability, expressing his views on the changes gorbachev did(without getting shot). while, the young says that with such changes, we have more opportunities.
Do you honestly think that people got executed all willy nilly after Stalin? The old timer, as you put it, looks to be in his 40s here at worst, so he would be growing up right in the middle of Khrutschev's Thaw by which point GULAG as an institution ceased to be. Even at the height of the kneejerk reaction to Khrutschev by Brezhnev, you wouldn't see people getting shot for wrongthink.
@@heinrichb i meant publicly. he can express his feelings and thoughts publicly,on tv, without getting arrested or sth. showing that the people have now the freedom to talk against the regime through literature, newspapers, etc.
This commercial allowed for 2 opposing political views to be presented better than most American political debates
Imagine being Gorbachev in the recent months and seeing that Russia turned out even worse than during the USSR, becoming an aggressive fascist state. All his work gone down the toilet.
brings tears of joy to my eyes
Russia was better during the USSR, Gorbachev destroyed the country.

"Feed thy stomach, you young squire "

And unfortunately, this was taken away via political innuendos..
@@1oag what?

It wasn't a complete 180, just a common ground for all.
That cured him of his « economic confusion » real fucking quick, now, didn’t it ? Funny how that works… : p
This is funny because half of the comments here are ironic and half are real and I can't tell the difference
Most of them probably haven't figured out themselves if they are real or ironic Marxist-Leninists.
Seems a lot of ruskies are nostalgic for the good old days.
I cant tell either. Apparently the U.S.S.R never suffered economically and everything was perfectly fine
TheXenoxen
Today’s Russia has about the same economy as Texas. The USSR was a global superpower. You tell me which economy was stronger.
I don’t like “Communism” either, but I ain’t arguing facts.
@@WelloBello "The USSR was a global superpower."
Uh, no. The USSR just stockpiled alot of nukes at the expense of everything else. The food, health care, consumer goods, infrastructure, industry, and overall standard of living for average non-Party members was Third World level.
But most importantly, the state / government was more repressive than most Third World countries - and the repression and jailing of political prisoners had increased throughout the 1970s and early 1980s under Brezhnev and Andropov.
Using this comment section - in fact, visiting this and pretty much any other website you browse today - would land you in prison, in indefinite detention (perhaps with torture) without a proper trial in the USSR. There's nothing whatsoever to defend about the USSR, or communism in general.

'Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances[...]' - Karl Marx
Matthew Longley He had one simple job. Destruction of Societ Union. Literally every Gorbachev move was hurting the USSR. But hey muh freedom
The Soviet Union was going fail without reform, it could not sustain the decades long feud with the United States and was suffering from it. Gorbachev was good intentions to save the Soviet Union, but went about it poorly and too quickly
Gorbachev or Hutchback, got bribes 1.2 mln bucks and he was a coward, so he helped to split USSR, for sake of group of people to get reach and the US. A biggest traitor of his own country, because he was a president with ultimate power ! Who ever will do that?
after selling out his country he had to resort to fast food commercials to pay the bills, what a fucktard
Fun fact. Of all of the Soviet leaders Gorbachev is the only one to actually be born in the Soviet Union. All the other leaders were born in the Russian Empire.
Which is probably why he was in such a haste to reform it lol. The other premiers/general secretaries/whatever the fuck all grew up in the awful dark age conditions of the Russian Empire, so by comparison the USSR didn't seem so bad.
@@MCTogs Now he spent his final days being mentioned exclusively in the context of pizza hut.
@@MCTogs
The Russian Empire was terrible during World War 1 during the blockade but in pre war 1913 it was basically the China of its day economically speaking.
Remember, Germany went to war with Russia because they feared it was now or never as Russia would have been unstoppable if they fully industrialized.
@@genghiskhan5701 No, that's definitely not what happened in 1914. 1913 Russia was the joint least industrialised country in Europe alongside the Ottomans. 1914 happened because Russia was allied with Serbia and Germany was allied with Austria-Hungary.
@@ThePrinceofParthia It's monarchist history revisionism. Tsarist russia like most monarchist superstates at the time was about to go the the way of the ottomans and austrians.
Insane to think that the man who dismantled the Soviet Union from the top (accidentally while trying to improve it (and having limited success)), is the same guy who was participating in *Pizza Hut* commercials and was alive less than 2 days ago.
I never get the same feeling about the USSR that a lot of older people do, being born after it fell, but having Gorbachev alive was a sort of testament that “yeah, this thing did happen”.
I’d like to think he doesn’t/didn’t regret making his decisions, because I genuinely believe he did a lot of good, especially for the oppressed people of the USSR. Perestroika, glasnost, allowing the eastern bloc to forge their own paths just to name a few.
Rest In Peace Mikhail Gorbachev. Not all communists are awful.

@@QuintTheSharker it's only humiliating if one is a Russian imperialist.
Rest in Peace Comrade Gorbachev, you were a real one
Lmao at the young guy saying they had hope and freedom. That didn't last very long.
It never existed. Yeltsin was authoritarian as well and their economy was in shambles. People were struggling to survive and there was no social safety net.
@@lucadhagat9364 The Yeltsin gave up to Putin who's turned Russia into even more of a shit hole
@@andrewparker1622 Let's be honest the communists would've come back to power in 1996 if it wasn't for all the pro-Yeltsin media and the election rigging.
@@harshithh.s.7513 It would not have happened because ussr was already divided, National conflicts started straight away and nobody cared about communism anymore
@@okaberintaro3936 not really mate, the disolution of the soviet uniom was'nt democratic, It was a shake of hand between higher ups. There was conflict, yes, with nationalist groups, but they never were the majority. Many russians today both wanted the USSR back and hate gorbie.
Capitalism feasting over the corpse of communism, picturized.
Disgusting.
Pretty accurate. After capitalism was introduced to Russia the standard of living dropped, there was mass unemployment, drug use, The Russian mob rose to power. Russia saw for the first time in its history a massive drop in life expectancy. It was a horrible time.
@@Ben-ek1fz ah russia you never change in one aspect.

sweet victory. raise a glass of something nice.
Gorbachev brought Pizza Hut, and Putin took it away.
Sad times living in Russia these days.
Rest in peace Goberchev. You might nott be the most liked guy, but you were kind and a peace loving politician and man. ❤️🇷🇺☮️

He destroyed the soviet union wtf you are crazy
"Large supreme pizza, stuffed crust, no peppers, no Soviet Union."
"No Soviet Onion"
Nahh seems disgusting to me, i'd rather take a pepperoni and cheese pizza with a soviet union. Especially the soviet union part seems delicious.
RIP Gorbachev 1931-2022
RIP in peace king. You brought some degree of happiness to ex-soviets. Like Pizza Hut.
lol thats irony right?
@@pripyat7995 Yep. This commercial always amazes me. It's just... amazing.
@@QuadrenaroMany people do believe that life got immediately better after the fall in the 90's so I thought you were dead serious 😂
This commercial is the perfect balance between ironically funny yet sad
/dev/RerunCipher that’s not the reason that it’s sad, it’s sad because Gorbachev sold out his country.
hoodz
The Soviet Union was going to collapse without reform. Its competition with America was beginning to show strain on basic aspects of Soviet life. Action had to be taken, Gorbachev’s problems do not lie in his hope for reform, rather the speeds and methods used to employ it.
Лаух Пендлтон he saved his people
@hoodz "Yeltsin did it but it was Gorbachev's fault because I dont like him"
Just LMOA @ u
@@misakayy1911 That's not what he meant, he was saying Gorbachev started the fire because of his reforms, not because he doesn't like him. And by the way, Yeltsin didn't dissolve the USSR, it was still Gorbachev who ultimately did it on Christmas day 1991.
A Communist leader making Pizza Hut add, has science gone too far?
calling gorby a communist is an insult to any good marxist
@@user-bp8mr4gr6h There are no good marxists.
No *WE NEED TO GO FURTHER*
@@selfishcapitalist3523 thats not true, the only good marxist is a dead marxist
@@selfishcapitalist3523 Some marxists are nice ppl. Some are not.
Here to pay my respects to Pizza Hut's greatest fighter.
RIP to the man that made Pizza Hut in the USSR possible :(
Gorbachev is my personal hero. Every night I go to pizza hut and pray to him.
General Tor 😂😂😂😂
You do the right thing.
We could make a religion out of this
@@RandomPerson-jo7cw but THE SUN IS A DEADLY LAZER
