перевод русских мемов

Hi! Привет! I translate memes from Russian to English. Pretty self explanatory :)

[translatingrussianmemes]

Добро пожаловать! Welcome!

Obligatory disclaimer: I am not a native Russian speaker. I am a native English speaker who has studied Russian for years and studied abroad for Russian language in college.

I wanted to practice translations and learning more colloquial Russian so what better way than by practicing translating memes. If I mess up though, please feel free to let me know! I am still learning more everyday :)

This is a side blog, I don't follow from this blog.

Most memes are sourced from this subreddit. Links to the originals will be provided as much as possible.

And because it has to be said, this blog supports Ukraine in the ongoing war and fuck Putin!!!

Context: From left to right, this is Alexander Lukashenko (President of Belarus), Kassym-Jomart Tokayev (President of Kazakhstan), and Vladimir Putin (President of Russia). The percentages are the approximate percentages of votes each one of them got in their last election, so this meme is insinuating that they gave themselves those numbers (aka - rigged the vote).

(The Lukashenko number is actually from the election in 2020, he got 87% in 2025)

Sources for the vote counts (they're a little off but close enough):

2020 Belarusian Election (Lukashenko got 81.04% of the vote)

2022 Kazakh Election (Tokayev got 81.31% of the vote)

2024 Russian Election (Putin got 88.48% of the vote)
