Seems like the entire eastern block had the same jokes.

what’s happiness in the soviet union ? It’s when you are woken up at 3 am by the secret police banging at your door, asking ‘ivanovitch lives here ?’ and you answer ‘no it’s next door’
I guess all Soviet colonies had their own twists

My favorite joke from communist-era Poland went something like this:
> Cafeteria, waitress shouts: “Who ordered the “ruskie”? (Rothenian dumplings, in orginal the world “ruskie” is the archaic name for the russian in Poland)”
> From behind voice: “Nobody, This reptiles came in for itself!”

I think it’s really fucking important to remember that the Soviet Union was an empire of puppet states controlled by Moscow against their will, and that it was every bit as evil as any western empire.

Not from the Soviet Union, but East Germany:
3 prisoners are sitting in the Bautzen Jail.
Prisoner 1: I’m here because I always arrived 15 minutes early to work. They convicted me for espionage.
Prisoner 2: I’m here because I always arrived 15 minutes late to work. They convicted me for sabotage.
Prisoner 3: I’m here because I always arrived to work on time. They figured I must have a watch made in the West.

Bottom center is the literal plot of the 1959 Peter Sellers movie *The Mouse the Roared*.

-Why is it a good thing the Ceaușescus banned porn?
Because if they didn’t, they’d insist they star in it.

Not about the soviet union as a whole, but rather about russians
In Ukraine there is a saying – “Dad, dad, devil is coming to the home! – Don`t worry son, it is not a russian”

Romanians often joked that Ceausescu implemented “socialism in one family”
