Three reasons why the Soviets lost their faith

The collapse of the former Soviet Union began with the loss, decay and disintegration of faith.

The main reason for the collapse of belief lies not in the outside, but in the separation of this belief system from reality and its internal contradictions and mistakes. Faith exposes its contradictions and mistakes, which does not mean that it will be replaced by other beliefs. In fact, under compulsion, even if its emptiness and absurdity have been exposed, people will seriously deceive each other and pretend to believe that it is still the hope of the future. But most people can feel the emptiness and absurdity, which is enough to make this belief a "joke" of ideological myth in their eyes.

The essence of jokes is "disharmony", and Kant clearly explained the contradiction of "disharmony"-"In everything that makes people laugh, there must be something absurd (that is, people can't get a satisfactory understanding of it)".

Soviets can't get a satisfactory understanding of the beliefs instilled in them in real life, and it is inevitable to doubt the authenticity and legitimacy of this belief.
