In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Krasny, znatchit krassivy” is a common card of the Russian Memes pack, number 60 of the collection, and the 132nd best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Krasny, znatchit krassivy” meme mean?
It fits a shaky justification delivered with total confidence: the argument has no legs, the tone does. The phrase sums up the “it is what it is” logic. In conversation it flags an answer swollen with certainty, or lets you close a debate yourself with a sly smile.
Where does the “Krasny, znatchit krassivy” meme come from?
In older Russian the word “красный” also meant “beautiful, splendid”: Dal’s dictionary records it, and several place names keep it, such as the village Krasnoye. The line plays on that double meaning. The meme is dated 2010 on Runet, the Russian-language web, where the clip spread as excerpts, screenshots and quotations. It lives mainly through its catchphrase, repeated in writing and aloud.
