Actually, a lot of people in Bulgaria approve of this. It looks like vandalism but Soviet monuments are generally regarded as symbols of the 45-year Communist regime that set us back several decades and still plagues the Bulgarian political life. These are the top comments in the article on a major publication’s website: “Glory to the unknown artists :D” “I hope they don’t clean it up, let’s raise funds for some weather-resistant coating!” “Good job!” “Don’t clean it up, put it in a museum as a symbol of the Communist Holocaust” “The paint hides the shame of our whole nation!” “Looks better than ever!” EDIT: The article was updated with a full gallery of images, if you’d like to see them. (via lamqta)
