He Will Never Liquidate the Kulaks

He will never liquidate the Kulak class Dekulakization

A four-panel historical meme contrasts a stern black-and-white portrait with a cartoon figure surrounded by grain sacks, followed by a scene of a uniformed Soviet official shooting the character during “Dekulakization.” The joke mocks the contradiction between claiming the kulak class will never be liquidated and then carrying out violent collectivization and dekulakization. It is used as a darkly humorous reaction to hypocrisy, political repression, or an inevitable purge.
