Item #: SCP-4024
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Exposure to SCP-4024 and SCP-4024-1 is restricted to C-Class and D-Class Personnel. Anyone exposed to SCP-4024 and SCP-4024-1 is to be administered medium to high-grade amnestics then monitored closely. SCP-4024 is kept in a windowless, soundproof, concrete containment unit. SCP-4024 is granted standard humanoid accommodations, however, the following items are forbidden:
-Writing utensils
-Anything that can be an improvised writing utensil
-Paper
-Cameras
-Audio Recorders
-Computers
-Radios
-Electronics in General
-Scientific Papers or Textbooks published after the year 1940
-Leftist Literature
Description: SCP-4024 is an animate bronze statue approximately three meters tall. SCP-4024 has a mass of approximately twenty-four metric tons. SCP-4024 resembles a well fit male of Slavic-European features. SCP-4024 believes himself to be a normal factory-worker of Russian descent. SCP-4024 can speak fluent Russian and has learned how to speak English while at Site-██, while appearing to have a very heavy Slavic accent. SCP-4024 scored 126 on an IQ test performed by Dr. ██████. SCP-4024 has in-depth knowledge of many sciences including but not limited to: Physics, Engineering, Marxism, Biology, and Chemistry. SCP-4024 has a compulsion to write various Marxist theories, which will henceforth be classified as SCP-4024-1.
SCP-4024 is a low-to-medium grade cognitohazard. Those who have listened to SCP-4024 or read SCP-4024-1 adopt beliefs consistent with the Communist Party of the Soviet Union1, and, in one rare case, caused a Foundation researcher to break out violently and attempt to take over Site-██. Due to this, if an instance of SCP-4024-1 is created at any point, they are to be destroyed as soon as possible. This cognitohazard is present even among those who do not speak or read Russian. Any personnel in the lower-to-middle class exposed to SCP-4024 and/or SCP-4024-1 begin to believe that they are in an oppressive system of classes. Any persons who have political beliefs relating to capitalism exposed to SCP-4024 or SCP-4024-1 seem to switch said beliefs. Exposure to SCP-4024 or SCP-4024-1 leads to a compulsion to speak in Russian.
While amnestics have been successful at removing memories of SCP-4024 or SCP-4024-1, no amnestics can return a subject to false consciousness.
Interviewed: SCP-4024
Interviewer: Dr. Tuvakhenko
Foreword: Dr. Tuvakhenko had no contact with SCP-4024, direct or indirect prior to the interview.
<Begin Log>
Dr. Tuvakhenko: Good morning SCP-4024.
SCP-4024: Comrade, I am more than just a number. Please, call me Boris Ivanov.
Dr. Tuvakhenko: …Alright, Mr. Ivanov. What do you think about your stay with the Foundation?
SCP-4024: Truthfully, I wish I was out in the world in solidarity with my comrades. I wish I was leading the revolution to finally overthrow the international bourgeois capitalist pigs. But being in Site ██ isn't too bad, there is work to be done here too.
Dr. Tuvakhenko: Excuse me? How do you know the Site designation, Mr. Ivanov?
SCP-4024: …
Dr. Tuvakhenko: Moving on. Ivan, do you know when you were made?
SCP-4024: I don't think anybody knows when they are made, but Ma says I was born on October 25th, 1917.
Dr. Tuvakhenko: Born? Why don't you describe your appearance for me Ivan?
SCP-4024: You can see me, yes? But for the doctors listening in, I will describe myself. I am a large man with fair skin, brown hair, and brown eyes. Ma always said I had a hard head.
Dr. Tuvakhenko: Could you tell me about your “Ma”?
SCP-4024: I never knew my real Ma. The first thing I remember is waking in Petrograd where Ma nursed me back to health. I don't know why I call her Ma, it's something I just did. Ma told me she came to Petrograd from a factory, led by a cruel bourgeois master, where the workers were nothing but slaves. She told me they built wondrous things at this factory, and I was her finest child. I don't know where she went after the revolution, probably back to that factory. She was an amazing woman.
Dr. Tuvakhenko: Interesting. What do you remember about the revolution?
SCP-4024: The revolution… Those days were the flame of my life. We were bringing an end to the oppression of the Tsars, and the workers were taking control of their lives for the first time. I wish I could go back to those early days.
Dr. Tuvakhenko: I understand. Thank you for your time, Mr. Ivanov.
SCP-4024: And thank you.

Closing Statement: Dr. Tuvakhenko was administered medium grade amnestics after the interview.
Addendum 1: The following tests were approved by former Site Director A███.
Test A- 10/11/198█
Subject(s): SCP-4024 and D-24E47
Procedure: D-24E47 brought into SCP-4024's containment unit. D-24E47 left in containment chamber for approximately thirty minutes.
Results: Within twenty minutes D-24E47 adopted beliefs consistent with the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. D-24E47 has a compulsion to speak in Marxist terminology, as well as some basic Russian.
Analysis: Test inconclusive. Unclear whether exposure to SCP-4024 is a cognito-hazard or SCP-4024 is merely very persuasive. Further testing authorized by Site Director A███.
Test B- 10/11/198█
Subject(s): SCP-4024 and D-5R3CF
Procedure: SCP-4024 is asked not to speak of any Marxist theories. D-5R3CF is left in containment chamber for approximately thirty minutes.
Results: SCP-4024 did not cooperate with this Test. Same result as Test A.
Analysis: Test inconclusive. SCP-4024 did not cooperate. Further testing authorized by Director A███.
Test C- 10/11/198█
Subject(s): SCP-4024-1 and D-1209X
Procedure: D-5R3CF is asked to read SCP-4024-1.
Results: Same result as Test A.
Analysis: Writing by SCP-4024 has the same effect as exposure to SCP-4024. Further testing was terminated by Site Director A███.
