About

"All Victories Inevitably Come At a Cost" is a memorable quote uttered by Mikhail Gorbachev on the HBO historical miniseries Chernobyl. Online, people use a screenshot of the scene as a reaction image macro for jokes about sacrifice.

Origin

On May 13th, 2019, HBO aired the second episode of the miniseries Chernobyl.[1] In the episode, Soviet Union leader Mikhail Gorbachev (portrayed by David Denick) orders three men to stop the spread of nuclear contamination, which will cost them their lives. Gorbachev says of the decision, "All victories inevitably come at a cost" (clip below).

The earliest known usage of the scene as a meme was posted on the @burritocyclist Instagram [2] page on June 8th, 2019. The post received more than 520 likes in less than one year.
