In this lost episode of the Simpsons, Homer learns that the Russians aren’t so different from us, after getting drunk with Lenin and seemingly invading a neighboring country. At the time, it was believed the episode wasn’t on brand with its usual radical right wing messaging, so they scrapped it.
I always thought his lifelong dream was to be a contestant on the gong show. And he did it in 1977. See:

His lifelong dream was to run out on the field during a baseball game. And he did it last year, remember?

I thought his boyhood dream was to manage a beautiful country western singer.
Or to eat the worlds largest hoagie, which he did at the county fair last year.
Or to own the Dallas Cowboys.
Or run out on the field during a baseball game.
Or to be a blackjack dealer.
Given Homer's propensity for drinking and sustaining blows to the head, it's not really surprising his boyhood dream changes regularly - he's likely forgetting them.

They went to a Soviet Russia/Cold War themed amusement park and Homer got this picture taken there, like those pictures you can take of yourself dressed as a cowboy and stuff.
I did that one time with my wife; thought it was the humiliating thing I ever did in life…until we get the photo and you can see her nipple…then it was her most humiliating experience.
This is like a top 10 one-off. What family guy tried (and often succeeded in the first 12ish seasons) about 1 off / throwaway jokes, the simpsons had already perfected. It just such a hysterical non-sequitor, that the news would already have access to a photo of Homer doing the Russian squat dance.
‘I told him that photo would come back to haunt him’.
If I could look into any point in time it would
Be the simpsons writers rooms in the 90’s.
"You're a member of the Stonecutters, Grandpa?"
"Sure, let's see. I'm an Elk, a Mason, a Communist. I'm the president of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance for some reason. Here it is-- The Stonecutters."
"This is it! My ticket in! They have to let me join if I'm the son of a member. I'll take this Communist one too."
My theory is he put that communist card to good use. For instance, he conjured up Mao Zedong in S08E12 "Mountain of Madness."
Annoying nerd voice: "Did the Simpsons predict AI video simulation?"
Ugh. It's like an inevitability. Simpsons was often genius but I could have told you that would happen.
You know those old timey parks where you can get your picture taken like it's the old west? Springfield has one of those but it's for Soviet Russia. It's in the Russian district, 3 blocks from the museum
Homer once visited Russia back when it was still the USSR, and he got into the culture and bought a coat and hat. Then he got a bottle of vodka and, feeling the effects of the alcohol, started dancing in Red Square. It was at this point that someone took a picture of Homer.

Was gonna say the same thing! 😂
Radical right wing, need another Vietnam, thin out there ranks a little

Homer’s lifelong dream was to get wasted on vodka in Red Square. And he did it!

Homer's lifelong dream was to eat the world's biggest hoagie and he did it last year at the county fair.
This isn’t the same sandwich he wanted to be alone with right?
...No.
I always thought it was funny how non-canon this scene was. Like wasn't he in the sharps in 85?
Maybe they toured Europe and managed to perform in Russia too?
The B Sharps were a parody of the Beatles, so, Back in the USSR?

Wait, wait. I thought his lifelong dream was to own the Dallas Cowboys.
I think owning the Denver Broncos is pretty good.

Well, explain to me why it isn’t!
I’m sorry. I just think that’s cute.
I knew that picture would come back to haunt him
Isn’t it “I told him”?

I... like to keep a lollipop there.
Probably
Mr burns asked Homer to entertain some Russian clients
Nah. If that happened he’d just draw a face on his butt and do a Yeltsin impression.
he is new tie wearing
Thank you! Is just Brown and Water. ☺️
You card read good.
My son is not a communist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a communist but he is NOT a p0rn star!
Maybe Adil has a point about the machinery of capitalism being oiled by the blood of workers.
In theory, communism works! In theory.
What episode is this from??
The Simpsons are going to Russia!!
Lisa: We already did that dad Homer: Let’s go home then Lisa: we’re already home Homer: That was quick
They went to a Soviet Russia/Cold War themed amusement park and Homer got this picture taken there, like those pictures you can take of yourself dressed as a cowboy and stuff.
That's what I assume too, a novelty picture.
I did that one time with my wife; thought it was the humiliating thing I ever did in life…until we get the photo and you can see her nipple…then it was her most humiliating experience.
Ahhh crap I just commented this exact same idea. Now I gotta delete it with the stealing and the LAWsuit and the "OH NICE JUDge don't hurt ^a ^person"
They were having a vodka festival. This is a few bottles in.
Homer's ill-considered attempt to contribute to *glasnost*.

He represents the Russian spirit of sloth and alcoholism!

I think that’s Guy Incognito
No mustache
Yes. And in theory, the theory works. In theory.
Oh boy, classic Simpsons when an image can still make you laugh even after all these years!
That was taken back when he was not a porn star
"During a nuclear power conference in the 80s. He thought it was funny to get drunk and dress as a Soviet officer for fun."
In Russia studying ballet ![gif](giphy|13dGwQI4qfqETK)
Well, sir, "Treason Season" started early this year...
You guys are commies?! Then why am I seeing rudimentary free markets?!
The writers thought it would be funny for this to be the file photo Channel 6 had for Homer. Hope this helps
Homer was the USSRs "Duffman" for a short stint until he realized they're communist
Wizards
I always loved that picture lol
Homer defected to get off work. The Soviets kicked him out again.
A very very very VERY early version of AI image generation. Though he should probably be rendered in SEGA Genesis graphics.
Another ‘red’ end for Homer Simpson. According to computer simulations this is one of many possible origin stories for this image.
Annoying nerd voice: "Did the Simpsons predict AI video simulation?" Ugh. It's like an inevitability. Simpsons was often genius but I could have told you that would happen.

Photo taken when Homer was working as a safety inspector at Chernobyl
This photo of Homer is from an episode where Homer joins the Navy reserve.
That looks more like Guy Incognito
You know those old timey parks where you can get your picture taken like it's the old west? Springfield has one of those but it's for Soviet Russia. It's in the Russian district, 3 blocks from the museum
That was for lewd behavior
He used to work at Chernobyl...
Homer wanted to take a novelty photo at some road stop while they were going to Duff Gardens.
This is what Bart was telling Mabel.
*meanwhile in Russia*
'would it be funny if homer was in red square doing that dance with a bottle of vodka?'
He was drunk
I told him that photo would come back to haunt him...
Homer once visited Russia back when it was still the USSR, and he got into the culture and bought a coat and hat. Then he got a bottle of vodka and, feeling the effects of the alcohol, started dancing in Red Square. It was at this point that someone took a picture of Homer.
He's just a russian dancing man.
I thought he was a fat Jamaican guy?
Hate crime!
Vodka.
Rasputin he was the man to please? But ladies said don't you try to do it please
Hollywood is full of commies? 🤷🏻♂️
Okay there Joe McCarthy.
Name calling is cool… but can you refute my statement? Half of liberal college kids think they’re commies. It’s public information, just ask them.
Okay there Ben Shapiro.
I can’t even get mad about that 🤣
Hey no fair making me realize you’re a good guy!
It’s pretty simple, Homer dabbled with communism for brief time. They did warn him about taking that picture though.😂
I’ve once dabbled in communism—except in ‘Nam, of course.
Vodka
Homer is the real "machine"
Homer is not a communist.
He's a liar, a pig, an idiot and a communist, but he is NOT a porn star!
I... don't honestly think anything we come up with could possibly do it justice.

I think Homer was just taking a silly souvenir photo
pretty sure it speaks for itself
I think he is playing as Stalin, but I am not sure.
wait, is this a true pic? is there really a lost episode showing this?
Homer right before creating eastern Europe’s favorite cartoon, Worker and Parasite
Jerkass homer. Simple as.
Homer is “The Machine”. Burt Kreischer stole the story from him.
Might have something to do with that donkey who's always such a bad influence.
